All it shows is that you do have ego issues.

Sometimes people do react funny to the FR-S when they are in what I consider cars that don't quite fit the niche but might wish they did. For example yesterday I was juggling cars in the garage/driveway as I often do owning 2 rides. Left the FR-S in the street a few minutes with the 4 ways going and suddenly I hear someone flooring it. It was a passing Genesis 3.5 coupe that saw my twin and felt the need to assert his masculinity by flooring it down the street. I just threw out may arms and nodded "no" which he might have seen out his rear window.

Not surprised. I have a mk6 GTI and spend some time in the VW community. It's just a different mentality. It took a while for VW owners to "get" the Twins, and some of the close-minded ones still don't and never will.
I'd say a larger percentage of VW owners are into stance/flashy wheels and most value straight-line speed. Not to mention dat superior interior doe. Nothing wrong with that per se, but definitely a different set of values that typically don't mesh well with cars like the Twins.

I agree that we do get a few of the idiots looking for attention. Even my wife, driving her plain-jane mazda 3 noticed VW drivers be more aggressive in our area. Mostly its younger kids driving. I would even say guys in Civics these days behave very well and those ones that are modded for function don't fuck around on the road much. I'm pretty sure a few years ago modded Civics were all rage, now it died down it seems.
I pretty much didn't have any issues over 3 years in my car, except 1 or 2 times that someone tried to race me or fly by (on a stretch of a road that cops sit on often haha!). Best you can do is drive defensively, watch out and get a dash cam just in case something bad happens. |

I don't have a problem with VW owners, I have a problem with idiots. During the height of the FnF dynasty, they all drove Hondas. Now, they drive VWs. Similarly, young, overpaid d-bags used to drive BMWs, now they drive Audis.

You cannot generalize. Every vehicle has its share of douchebag drivers and every driver has their day they get pissed off and do stupid shit.
Its threads like this that start the cycle of others calling us twin drivers douchebags and every other name in the book. We have to be the most humble group because we understand the car is hot, we are excited about it but we also know it aint the fastest shit on the street.

I've never had that happen but recently I had a white Silverado force me onto the shoulder as I was passing him. Was he jelly?
