Probably the worst/best one yet for me, I was gassing up and this man approaches the car, I said hi to him, he gives me the typical "nice car, don't see these anymore, yadda,yadda,yadda".
I tell him thanks, then he starts in on how my car didn't come "this way". I say what do you mean, "this way?" He tells me that the all black isn't the factory look/paint. I politely tell him yes, this is how this model came from the factory. I tell him it has been repainted, but nothing was changed from how it's supposed to look. He argues back "impossible, you just told me it has been repainted, so it's not the factory paint". Now, I get a little irritated. I asked him if he even knows what the car is. He says "yea, a Monte Carlo or SOMETHING".
As nicely as possible I said go home & google Buick Grand National. He asks me, "what?" I said you heard me, google Buick Grand National. This tool goes to his car, gets a pen & paper and writes it down. He tells me he's going home to look the car up because he has his doubts.

I drive a T but the previous owner changed it over to a GN clone, all the pride of owning a "GN", less curb weight than a stock GN, and I paid for it what a T-Type would cost! previous owner was very thorough in converting it to a GN; all the correct badging and no guilt for making this classic my DD. Not to perpetuate the T-Type inferiority-complex but I find I enjoy my car more because I don't feel like I'm beating on "the real thing"...IMHO
