As a former Evo X owner, I can speak from experience that they were all jealous of the sexiness of your car.

I remember sitting outside my friend's place on Hermosa Ave and an EVO rolled by all carbon'd out, followed by a STI both with loud exhaust and we looked at each other an he said "WTF would you want to draw attention to yourself while driving THAT?"

Car meets are always kind of awkward I think. That's why I always try to make sure a few people I know personally will be there before I go to one.

All of the car meets I go to are always very open so I've never really had this feeling.
