Totally fair!

It's my experience that the average bogan who drives those can't drive for shit.

I'm not saying that these are so powerful it's a v8 eater. I can only assume that he was not going as fast as i was in the lead up so that is why I caught him, and in the mountain, he basically had to ride the brakes hard at every corner because the amount of weight coupled with the power coupled with the jello-like suspension he had coupled with the fact that he genuinely could not drive...equals overtaken.

My post was not trying to make these cars something they're not...I was merely referring to the fact that it out handled (in a big way) a heavy shopping trolley.

had a hater successfully hate me..

brand new 270hp hyundai sonota passed me on a 2 lane (2 lanes each way) road, got in front of me then slowed down significantly. each time i tried to pass, he'd swerve to that lane, whichever it may be. kind of a difficult situation to deal w/ and as furious as it made me, it wasnt worth it to do a crazy manuever to get in front as collisions suck (plus it was raining). after a half a mile or so, he finally turned right and as i passed, he grinned at me like he was so proud of himself.

i got did pretty good and wanted revenge but meh, not worth it.

the moment someone makes a Toybaru emblem that is quality i will be getting out the checkbook.

I have a BRZ , but either way if I were you I would have shouted back to the guy in the Audi "How is the cost of maintenence and repairs!"

[ngabdala]

This. You just reminded me why I want turbo and not a supercharger

That kind of thing is the single most infuriating thing anyone has ever done to me. The guy who did it to me was in an older vw passat. I was extremely tempted to just tap his bumper to scare him off. (I was driving my '90s Honda. Buying an FRS in the spring.) How do you deal with those people?

Okay, okay. I was just messin' with ya, that's all. BTW, you should try some cereal. Honey Nut Cheerios is one of my favorites!

The best suggestion I've read is to leave the Scion badge on your steering wheel, replace the hood badge with a Subaru badge and replace the trunk badge with a Toyota badge.

Considering he's riding, excuse my language, "B!tch" or for lack of a better term "B!atch". Makes me wonder if he can even afford the car to begin with... or a car at all for that matter.

I'm torn between that and dem00n's split-personality Toyobaru idea. In either case, what would cops write on tickets?

I usually just spoil their fun by not even attempting to pass. I just drop back, and if possible let some other cars get in front of me between me and them. Sometimes that way they start bugging someone else instead, creating an opening to get past them.

Here is my little bit of 'haters'. I thought it was funny. The guy was making himself look like an idiot without any external help.
