Interesting array of answers! I have a nice car and am pretty proud and happy with it. I also, like all of you, get asked 2 main questions'
1. either 'is it real' or 'is it a kit'?
2. how much does it cost?

I have learned something recently that might make all of our answers a bit more......shall we say....kind!
A very high class CEO of a fortune 500 company said when asked." what are the best words you ever heard that changed your life"?
answer: just assume that everyone has GOOD intentions or MEAN WELL! That way, when you have to deal with them, answer them, or just be around them, it makes is easier and keeps you from being angry in dealing with them. Now, we all know that others don't always HAVE the best intentions, but to give them the benefit of the doubt...will definitely make dealing with them really a lot more comfortable. Try it and see!
I have found that most of the people that ask for price.....really expect the car to be VERY EXPENSIVE and when I tell them the value, it always takes them back, almost always! They all love the car, so they just want to know so they can wallow in knowing someone can afford it! so, that is my approach.
