Douchebags are exactly that, it doesn't matter what they drive. They will always be douchebags.

Here in Jersey I see everything from Astons and Bentleys to Kias and Daewoos driving like asshats. Yea... I said Daewoo.

FRS = New Douchebag driver?

I agree in that all cars can have douchey drivers, u probably pay more attn to FRSes.
I feel that I see more FRSes, and all tuner cars in general, doing that in central LA and eastward to inland empire, but in contrast west LA and San Fernando valley only seen slowpoke FRSes.

But I wouldn't call them douchebag drivers.
To me, somebody gotta be driving like real ass or downright stupid to be a douchebag.. LA has too many drivers and types of drivers to get angry all the time

I'm on freeway most of the time and I see the twin do their handling dance like crazy from left to right up front. I just cruise and smile for now ; .... In the next 10 years from now I kind of worried.

I see most FRS/BRZs behaving and cruising at 75. Luxury SUVs, BMWs and G35/G37 are the ones I typically see speeding and swerving..

I don't go flying past 70 on the freeway, but I do take any opportunity I can to downshift and pass (safely and courteously, of course)... it's addicting

Exactly this!

Agreed. I really despise people that think they are entitled to the left lane.

I saw a McLaren 12C doing easily 140+ while I was cruising at 70, weaving through some light traffic. McLaren drivers must be douchebags!

Wait a few years when they become affordable to most of the public. New Civics have been born.

Well, I guess I must have hit the Lottery, because my story is the total opposite of what you said.

I was in my VR4, last year. I dont own any of the Twin
Saw a WRB BRZ
Stopped behind him on a Red light
He Rev-ved up, light is still Red
I laughed
He Launched, light is still Red
I was left "Speechless"

Was that clarified as Douche ?

Completely agree, if you are going slow but still passing people I have no issue with you, read what I said more clearly.
