Default Most commom ? about your C3

When someone is looking over your C3 whats the most common question you get?

Mine is "why do you have a fire extinguisher mounted infront of the passenger seat?"

I'm looking forward to screwing with the dummies after I get the 72 back on the road. "This Vette is really rare. They only made 12 of these with the LS1 engine in 72".
