Do people stare at you when your in the GTI

As title, driving passed a couple of pubs today at a progressive  rate and had a few people stare, how do Gti's sound when going past you quite quick ?, sporty or diesel dog

Do people stare at me? - Only when my flies are undone 

Yes, a throbbin' red GTI with carbonfibre eye-candy does attract admiring looks

No, not noticed anyone looking at my Ed 30 ..... which is nice actually - but then I did come from a bright yellow S2000

I notice a few look. 

Mine sounds ok, the Mrs knew I was almost home as she heard me coming - you cant mistake the gear changes of a DSG + milltek when giving it some

I get a lot of people looking at mine. I think alot of them dont know what it is, hardly any GTI's up here.

I get all the boy racers looking, women in standard MK5's stare, and middle aged men. Gay boys in the new mini's stare aswell.
Young kids aswell and students love it. I get a lot of people saying "nice car mate" but its mostly men.

Yesterday, after i waxed it, it was getting alot of looks, more than normal

Yes! I know im not in a Gti.. but still its always nice when people nod and mouth the words nice car i always acknowledge by giving it a little extra throttle as I drive off, always goes down well

all the time, went out in a mates new mini cooper cabriolet today with the roof down, followed my wife with my mates wife in the edition30 down the motorway, and i have to say it looks the bussiness, those smoked rear lights combined with the Blood red" or as my mate says its very close to the ferrari Red. She looked fanbloodytastic, the pescara's look great whilst in motion, i was really prowd to have one.

i always tend to get looks from the sort of 20-30 age bracket stop and stare, or other Mk5 golf owners especially other Mk5 GTi's as they know what the ed30 is and not just some body coding difference.I will admit when i had my standard GTi, and saw an edition 30 approaching id always point out to the missus or point at it straight away.
Even had a guy today at my local Tesco stop and shop pull up in his New corsa VXR as i was about to pull out, and he said "nice car mate" which was rather pleasing

With the amount of GTI's being stolen at the moment, sometimes I feel its better not to stand out too much, if that makes sense?
