FRS = New Douchebag driver?
So recently, I've noticed any time I see an FRS on the freeway they're hauling some severe ass. (LA freeways mind you).
I'll be cruising between 65-70 and I'll see one just fly by swerving in and out of traffic. I've noticed this not only in LA but Fresno, and Sacramento.. Anyone seeing the FRS/brz turning into the new "douchebag BMW driver" car? Anyone else seen this shit happening? |

I haven't luckily... I can imagine it happening way more than it should though. It does seem to bring out the douchebag in other drivers hauling ass up beside me, revving trying to get me to race. I never bite.
Watched a VW driver with dealer plates almost nail a concrete barrier weeks ago when he was too busy staring me down and trying to get me to chase. He then sped off I'm assuming to hide the shame of almost wrecking a car he just drove off the lot. I actually grandma drive this car anywhere that isn't a deserted back road or a big empty parking lot. I'd never put anyone's life in danger... |

Yeah, I saw an older guy in a hot lava FRS pass me doing like 95 this past summer. Wove through traffic. I could tell he had a very large pŁnis.

I have yet to get revved at but man the idiots just fly dangerously on the freeway...
I think I'm still use to driving my super low corolla and just cruise rather than try to get tickets. |

So far in Toronto, haven't seen them act too doubebag-y.
I see M3 and M5's act waaaay more douchebag-y than any other car in the road. But yes, the twins have revived rice.

In miami, people haul ass in every type of car imaginable lol. I usually cruise the SL, and I'm like holy shit every 30 seconds when some car flies by me going 100mph. Corvettes, corollas, buicks.

That's because actual Miata owners are men who are secure enough in their manhood to actually own a Miata with the chick-car stigma and all.

There are plenty of other cars out there doing stupid shit. But because you own an frs, subconsciously u pay more attention to them and that makes you notice these things quicker compared to other cars around you doing the same.
