My most common Q and A routine goes like this...
"Hey, mister, that's a really nice Midget!"
"Thank you, it's an MGB"

Along these same lines, a friend of mine has a Metropolitan and was
displaying it at a local car show one bright sunny afternoon when a nice
looking woman in her forties came up to him and began telling him how much
she appreciated seeing his car. It seems she had had the same kind of car
when she was in high school and this one brought back so many of those
wonderful memories. She went on in detail about her first parking ticket
in the car, parties, holiday trips etc. Finally she was ready to leave but
turned around to take one more admiring look. She stood there, a smile on
her face and then said to my friend, "You know, my car was almost the same
color, but... on the front, right here, it said Crosley!"
