Not too many inquiries as to what it is, just a lot of gawking. Although, there was one teenager who called it an Evo, just politely corrected him and stated that it was a Subaru.

One time a kid asked if this was "the twin turbo car" and asked me to do a burnout.

Car Info: subaru

When people ask me about gas milage and price of the car they always end up asking why I didn't just get something like a Camry or Accord. Also, I get asked if the car comes with scissor doors. When I say no, people lose interest. I don't think people realize exactly what this car is made for and what it's capable of....

I get "why'd you get a subaru? those things suck!" and "what the hell happened to Alexis?" I'm sure some people get "Whered the scoop go?" and "why doesnt your door pull all the way out?"
