Anyone else have these douche bags around you that seem to hate on you just because of your car?

I'm driving through a residential area, with a half primer half green civic hatch with the stupid 8 light bezel in the bumper driving right in front of me. After driving about 500 feet he starts to turn deeper into the neighborhood and I keep going straight towards the highway, but he turns super slow and as I'm driving around him I hear him yell "pussy!" then he revvs up and floors it down the road.

Wtf? Lol I didn't do anything to show him my distaste for his car, I didn't even rev on him...I did plan to pass him as soon as it went to 2 lanes but he didn't know that :)

Definitely have this happen every now and then. Usually the ones who are so stuck in Hondas that they think anything else is worthless. IE: They'd spend $8K on a stock KLEEN 4 door auto civic from the 80's, instead of buying a car that actually has something to it. And then rice the shit out of it, and it's still slow as hell.

It's unusual. I get alot of props and thumbs up. may depend on the neighborhood/demographics I suppose.

Yep. Offers to buy the car every spring pop up when I pull it out. By strangers to whom I have never talked.

I've had an old integra with an exTREMEly loud exhaust tailgate me around corners for a couple blocks. He didn't pull up next to me until a freeway entrance finally came up at which point (to somehow impress his lady friend?) he downshifted into the ramp, even though I continued on straight.

An aluminum foil ball might have came from my car onto his windshield as he did said ricer fly-by, might have not.:sarcasm:

That's easy to stop, tell them to walk out on the lot and point out one car that even comes close to the MKIII... I did that to a salesman at the dealer I used to buy parts from all the time, always trying to get me to buy a new car.

I don't normally get that kind of reaction. Usually people love the car, that's why I was a little confused at the random hostility lol

Where I live, most people don't even know what Supras are. Maybe if I rolled around in a Mk4 they might think it looked familiar from somewhere, but most people are clueless. Which is fine by me, I love how a 4" exhaust tip is like bait to all the retards around here. Used to have a lot of people rev at me trying to get me to race them... seeing as how not one person that *wasn't* in a Supra has managed to keep up yet, the majority of that has stopped.

I get nothing but compliments on my car, and my car needs a front bumper repaint and some body work on the left side quarter panel! Haha! I guess all the damage is on one side of the car, so if you view it from the other it looks good, but still.

My latest supra hasn't been out of the garage (on the road) yet so randoms have not got the chance to say anything. MY friends think the engine bay is clean and want me to go through their car and make theres look just as good.

Since my current supra has been in the garage forever I haven't really had any comments on it. But when I had my old 88 I was at the dealership buying parts I had the gm of the dealership come out of the sales department to the parkinglot just to tell me he had bought one just like mine when they were brand new. He was like a little kid going over my car, it really made me excited seeing his enthusiasm over the car.

Now my wife gets hated on all the time in her bimmer, she had the same issue when she had a lexus also.

It's awesome ain't it?!?! I sometimes even slow down, so that they can finish taking a snapshot or video from their phone.
