Dumbest thing Someone has ever said to you about your X5

I'm sure we all have stories about the dumbest thing anyone has ever said to you about your car. My recent experiences are:

1) Who makes X5? (Guy at the autoparts store Autozone, when i was getting a new bulb) I looked at him like he was retarded and said "BMW"

2) Who makes that? Toyota? (Guy at the auto parts store Oreilly, when i was getting a new battery) I paused for a few seconds thinking I heard something different, and I said " Uh, BMW buddy"

Nice to know that these guys have a clue huh?...Anyone with some other stories?

My Causin is German, and he lived his whole life there. He saw my x5 and he asked me; where is this car made in?
My reaccion was, almost a punch in his face...

That makes total sense given the X5 was designed and built solely for the U.S. market...
