I rarely got "challenged" in my FR-S. Had the occasional moron want to pace me, or even better try to follow me though entrance/exit ramps or sharp corners, but all in all, pretty rare.
Then I picked up a 2014 Civic Si and started getting these "Come Race Me Bros" much more often. Some other civics, a few pickup trucks, and even one old ass Explorer. o_O
Then back at the end of April, I traded the FR-S and Civic in for a 2015 STI. And now it seems like every week some moron is trying to prove something. It's mainly been pickup trucks and I don't get it, I really don't. It's as though they think the wing is just for show and they want to put the "rice-burner" in its place or something.
On a side note: been reading through about the bad experiences with WRX/STI drivers and I'd like to apologize for them. Most of the WRX drivers I've encountered have been really cool/chill/respectful individuals. I just don't understand why people like to pick fights with cars outside of their class...
So if I happen to cross paths with any of you out there, expect nothing but respect and a thumbs up from this former eight-six owner.
