For me it was a female coworker complimenting my Q50 Redsport. Interned at a 3 letter fed agency last summer and one of the other interns who I became friendly with was a mid 20’s former sorority girl - someone you’d never expect to be a car enthusiast. Gave her a ride after work one day since her car was in the shop and immediately after walking up to my car in the garage, started complimenting it. Talked about the VR30TT engine and asked me if the turbos were giving me any trouble, then talked a little shit about how it’s still slower than her car. I asked her what she drove and she had an M2 lol

Was told my Charger GT sounded better than some scats. They weren’t telling the truth but it definitely made me feel good
Back before I got really busy with work and time did it’s thing to the paint, I had someone pull up next to me in my Trans Am - non-restored, well taken care off - and tell me it looked like it just came off the showroom floor.
At the time it was just over 25 years old. Original everything.
Damn the Van Nuys GM plant and their crappy paint. At least it lasted that long.

“Why does it smell of fuel”
I was driving my C30 with prancing moose badges and I pulled up next to a guy in a Ferrari GTC4 Lusso, he rolled down his window and yelled “my other car is a Volvo!” And then did a WOT pull through 2nd gear away from the light. It put a smile on my face for the rest of the day
A girl told me she’s never seen a car as cute as my Spitfire
My former black e46 convertible sport package with brown interior, getting gas and the guy besides me has a newer LX lexus, says must be nice. Car was 3500 bucks his many many times more.
When people know what my car actually is. I drive a '98 Toyota Caldina gtt. which is essentially a gt4 celica with a wagon body, and I’ve had maybe 5 people at meets go hey that’s sick, I know what that is and every time I get happy. Then when they find out it’s on 20 PSI I get to watch jaws drop
And you married her. Not!
Love a fake but great fantasy post. Happy karma 🚀
I got third place in a car show. My car doesn’t look good but this particular event took mods into account so full suspension, turbo, small interior stuff etc put me in third

Had a guy at the local tire shop tell me how nice my tercel was for the age when I was getting some new tires. Maybe the only compliment that thing has ever gotten and made my day
I was walking to my car when suddenly i hear “Nice muscle car!”
I drive a 2022 chrysler 300 with a V6. I relayed this to a coworker after clocking out and seeing my white on black 300 in the parking garage. He did not care and still complimented it. We got to talking in the parking garage for about an hour talking about old school muscle cars and how he had one back in the 80’s. Also saddened the V8 is getting replaced. All in all a wholesome and informative experience!
Never had a compliment for my car sadly they always just make fun of me for owning a skoda. At a local VW meet noone even looked at my car wich really bummed me out espacially since they mostly only had lightly lowered polos
Any compliment I receive is unexpected, because I literally drive a rental car.
I mean, it’s a Mustang convertible, so one of the nicer rental cars, alright, but still, it isn’t special, and I know it. But I still love the compliments it receives anyway. :-)
