Actually even better than that... someone once told me that they were considering buying an RX7 but changed their mind due to the head gasket problems.

Well, heres one for the gang. When i bought my current FC.. damn thing wouldnt start, i was somewhat smart when it came to rotary engines.. i cranked it over a few times (she seemed flooded) i asked him what he thought was wrong with it... he said he took it to the dealer and they told him that the Headgasket was blown. WTF!!! i ended up buying my current car for 800$ started it in front of him and had my friend follow me home. needless to say, the dude wasnt happy

My favorite:
When I'm at a gas station and a guy says, thats a small motor, how many cylinders?
Me: Whats a cylinder?
Guy: You know, pistons?
Me: What the hells a piston?
Guy: Nevermind.
Heh...I love doing that to people.
