I get that same issue. BMW and Genesis always ride my tail and try to race me. I don't do it cuz theres no point in going straight when rolling. So I double tap my brake lights twice as recommended in the driver manual. They usually don't listen so a nice brake check makes them run away.

While all makes and models of cars have their douche owners, I have to say BMW has the most of them.

I don't excessively speed but I'm usually 5-10mph over the speed of traffic. I don't cut anyone one off nor ride bumpers but is seems like every 335i that was minding their own business wakes up when a little coupe passes them. "Gotta prove my 300hp turbo has a faster 60-100 derh."

Is it a full moon today or something wow...

What on earth makes a truck or SUV think they have a chance in hell???

Even a ford lightning is a dog compared to the toyobaru twins...

Man this morning I had an SUV AND a toyota 4runner hit FULL douche mode...

The toyota I don't know what got up his butt.

I switched to the right lane to pass a slower moving car in front of me and he (being two cars back) pulls at and starts riding my ass. I wasn't going slow at all.

I switch back to the left lane and bam he takes off...lol...

Then farther up the freeway a little blazer starts cutting off everyone to try and get ahead of me.... crazy stuff...

Don't know if it's a full moon today or the toyobaru twins just brings out the douche in people...

Sadly as cars age they get cheaper on the used lots, when they get cheaper the frequency of douche owners increases. The twin turbo 335 has been around for a while now so we will be seeing more and more of this type of stuff I'm sure.

@Jaden: I think deep down they are jealous and that's all they can come up with at the time. "Oh yea! Well..well my 4-Runner is fast, watch this!!"

I've had the same type of douchery happen on multiple occasions, including by other Subaru owners/enthusiasts (WRX/STi).

Nope, people drive like douche bags whether there is a twin around or not.

I can't even count how many idiots I see on my daily 70 mile commute in DFW area.

I can say I experience the same situation. They seem to disappear when I'm in both my IS300 or my Supra, but I think I know the reason for that lol.

Every time I'm out and I see any sort of other sports/sporty type car I get revved at, a flyby or general douchery in their driving.

My wife thought it was funny and I was exaggerating, everytime we go out now and I see a car, I say hey I bet you 10 bucks they will speed up along side me etc... She no longer thinks IM exaggerating.

I respectfully disagree
Toyota Prius owners appear to have an extremely high douche quotient!
And that's on top of the "I love the earth more than you do cause I drive a god awful ugly and boring car" attitude

Don't forget about the Mercedes C-class owners lol. Though, definitely not as common as the typical 3-series douche.

this is so true. It's like they want you to realize that their car is better and you should notice their poorly designed hybrid attempt at saving the planet.
