Attracting attention

So I came out of the Supermarket today to find a small group gathered round my car. First reaction was oh no what has happened but no they just wanted to know what it was, how it drove and were the 'funky' - their words - red mirrors only a special edition. I think toyota may have made a couple more sales today.

Never had this much attention. Not sure I totally like it :0)

it does seem to happen quite a bit, the wife went to work only to be told be her customer that there was three painters having a good look all round the car trying to work out what it was
Am used to it with my Jag, sadly it's from octogenarian men and and 20/30something hotties :lol:

Not had any attention as yet but not taken it into areas with pedestrian footfall.

Garry understand what you mean as attention can sometimes lead to jealousy :(

Yes that was slightly my worry. On the other hand no evidence so far - all has been very positive.
I am disappointed - just been into town, parked in the main car park and when I came back to the car guess what - not a sinlge person around it :cry: :cry: :cry:
:) yes can see that being disappointing. I have parked quite a few times without getting any attention so don't give up hope ;-)
What color do you have?
I hope I have time to change my order...

Luckily I 've order white. Wife's call.
Nebula Blue is beautiful. Probably it wasn't under direct sunlight to be spotted properly. UK rules.
Ha ha ha...
Hi,first chr ive seen with a splash of road kill lol..
I can definitely relate,

I picked mine up on Monday and the amount of attention it receives is almost embarrassing.

I've had a guy stop his brand new 5 series BMW to have good look, very annoying when I'm waiting to pull out and he's parked in the way. (Ignoring my indicator)

Several people walking on footpaths stop and mouth the word F**K and this morning i was forced to explain the hybrid system to a group of very eager but clearly confused polish cleaners in work.

And it's only the metal stream colour, no black roof or anything.
I had 6 people around mine. Two of whom were peering inside. When I went to get in one man shook my hand. I get lots of stares on the road no doubt it's the first CHR that they have seen

My first and to date only sighting of a C-HR in the wild (other than my own and at dealer's) was in a supermarket car park. Had to slow down to check model, went home and looked it up, booked test drive and purchased!
I teach and before school this morning, 3 kids came into my room and asked if that was my car outside!
Well ours has been on a 500 mile round trip this weekend and it definitely draws attention. DH was driving and I've been chilling watching the reactions of people to it as we've gone by.

I saw one lady passenger in another car actually prod the driver of her car to look. We were after a while changing motorways so went in different directions and the passenger in the other car was physically turned round in her seat still trying to look at it :shock: !
yep definitely gets lots of attention , did a 2 hour drive today and got stuck in traffic so could see the reactions of the people opposite lots of pointing and nudging
Had to pass this one on. I'm filling up the car and a small boy and girl come wandering over (closely supervised by parent.) Girl says Sir, my brother wants to know, is your car a Transformer!
Brilliant.
I've had my C-hr for about 4 days now and l am getting loads of people looking at it. I am suprised because lots of them don't know what it is and keep asking what is it.!

Then again l havent seen another one yet on the road.
