I got mud shoved down my throat by a GTR after I made eye contact.
I gave him a thumbs up at the red light.

So today I was getting gas at my local Sunoco and in drives this new Nissan Juke Nismo RS and this dude pops out, probably in his mid 40s, hair super slicked back with a bottle of grease on it... Anyway he starts eying my frs while I'm driving out and naturally (being that the Juke is a joke of a car) I start smiling and sort of uncontrollably laughing at this thing with its yellow "JDM" fog lights and black rims and loud exaust. As I pass by him (still laughing) he says and I quote "I'll bet you a g says mine will smoke you"... At this point I can't stop laughing... Also keep in mind I'm 19 years old and this dude is like 45 and trying to pick a fight with me in his JUKE NISMO RS... All in all a hilarious experience, this only happened about an hour ago and I still can't stop laughing at it... Btw sorry to any of you who own a juke, it's nothing personal it's just that you shouldn't try to race anyone with it cause even if you win your gonna look dumb doing it

Yeah, you're also laughing at someone else's car. I'm not a fan of the Juke either, but to pass by and just laugh at the guy for the car he's driving?

He's a 19 year old kid. Doesn't know sh*t about sh*t and that Nismo Juke would smoke his FRS :P

Thanks for your concern, however the frs wouldn't in fact be smoked by the juke RS because the juke is actually only half a second quicker to 60 than the frs... But that's besides the point, for I'm not really concerned if my frs is faster than a juke RS and you shouldn't be either

0-60 of the juke nismo RS on a good day is 7-8 seconds
0-60 of a manual FR-S on a good day 6.2-6.5 seconds
