Auto drivers are not all automatons. I drive AT and I am both an enthusiast and love to hoon.:burnrubber::thumbup:

My apologies. I didnt mean to generalize everyone into the same group, but you are in the minority there. :cheers:

It is funny that we have the same threads in other forums I've been in. I try to wave at other FR-S owners but mostly get ignored. It is more enthusiasts that wave back. This is the same in the Ferrari community. The Corvette community seems to have more comrade on the road. BMW Z4 owners seem to rarely wave back as well.

This community has been around for only a year and half the people that own them just want to have the newest coolest looking car and don't give a fuck about anything or anyone else. The VW community is just the opposite. A bunch of true enthusiasts that actually care about cars and the community around them. It truly sucks this car attracted those people instead of the true enthusiast it was intended for.

I worked on enough of them to make me to hate them.

VW has not made an enthusiast car in a long time. The MKVII holds more promise, but the majority of VW drivers I have met don't really care about cars.

The CC and GTI still have plenty of followers. The GLI has gotten awful since the mk4 unfortunately (which I still think is top 10 >$30k enthusiast car over the last 10 years). I think the GTI will always draw a crowd on sheer value alone.

It might be you are just meeting the wrong people. I have met and made alot of friends in the VW community who respect cars. But there will always be a few bad apples around where ever you go.

No offense, but half of the VW scene is composed of high school douchebags driving some old-ass, lowered GTIs.

No better than the Honda Ricers.
