Default Most asked C4 question

I'm stealing this from the C1&C2 General Discussion, when I saw their thread I wondered if the questions for C4s are any different.

The most questions I get about my C4 is:
1. What year?
2. What's the top speed?
3. How many miles?

And the question I hate the most..
4. Can I drive it?

I'm usually asked if it has a dodge v10 in it.
