This is random topic but has anyone had any awkward encounters with other sport car drivers?

Here is my story. I was at a light turning left and I was minding my own business not doing anything wreckless like revving my engine just normal driving. I was making the left turn and I happened to glance over to a BMW, looked like a 335 series, and an asian guy (looked young maybe mid/early 20s), just gives me the stare down and makes a gun with his hand and pretends to shoot me, I saw his mouth move like trying to make the sound effect. My car is basically all stock except exhaust and intake, And no exterior mods. So idk what that's suppose to mean. Anyone gone through anything similar? Just curious.

Me being not only very shy and hate making eye contact with strangers on the road, pretended not to notice his long creepy stare. My grandma was in the passenger seat and my little brother sitting behind her telling me how he just didn't move his head during the whole time...

Once I pulled up to the gas station and this Honda civic (not a si) with si badges and stickers all spread around the whole car was leaving as I was getting gas. The car soon came back when I just finished. The guy looked angry and looked like he was yelling at me but I had no idea what he was saying. He gave up and I saw him take a pic of me in my car and drove off. I assumed he mistaken me for this other Asian girl who drove a WRB BRZ too in the city (this was during the time BRZs were still new). After that incident, I've been seeing him around on the road especially when I drive to work or from work. And even once he happened to be driving down my street when I just got home and parked my car in front of my house. He slowed down when he saw me. :cry:

I had some guys in big lifted trucks that always hang out at a gas station I frequent give me weird looks when I walk/drive by them. Once they told me to slow down in the parking lot when I wasn't going fast. Yesterday, as I was walking back to my car, they were revving their engines and blipping the throttle trying to get my attention. They probably wasted more gas doing that than I use in a day. I've never said or done anything to them, but I guess they have to find a way to make them feel better about their tiny....personalities. I don't know why else their brand new trucks would need to be high enough for me to drive under just to hang out in a parking lot every Friday.

Ths one time I met a guy who was 100% sure our cars were turbo and about 400hp. I told him it's "just" a 2.0 and it's not turbo or supercharged. Then he tried to convince me it was turbo and had much more than 200hp.

Talk about awkward.

Hey!!!!
No flirting with Choco.
We can't have her lose her "just one of the guys" status.
I am now her forum dad and need to know your intentions before you continue.

Drivers frequently think people are staring at them when it is actually the car they are looking at. You even said it was still pretty rare at that time so he may have just wanted a pic to show his buddies what he spotted.
