Cars that I've noticed that try to start something have been, camaros (new ones), civics( none Si), and a black Ferrari ( it was so awesome lol) oh yeah a silver 911 turbo. Ferrari and Porsche were cool, cause they revved their cars than took off. The others just linger around me. Lol

Comes with the territory if your car looks or sounds aggressive and our cars *do* look aggressive from some angles. Never let it bother me, though, plus don't feel tempted since straight line speed isn't a strength. I once had a G35 and sometimes felt tempted but even then I only used the power to overtake. Its stock exhaust sound gave the impression of "come race me bro" and I'm sure any FR-S/BRZ w/ aftermarket exhaust would do the same.

GLENDALE, CA has the worst. no matter how you drive. someone will always stare and try to race. funny thing this is, most people that rev and drive recklessly are the ones with benz, BMWs, camrys and accords. SMH

Im on my way to work this morning, 5:30 am. Just got through a series of lights on a popular turnpike (rt 347 on LI) getting onto the entrance of a parkway. 2 lanes, hard left bank. I was cruising into the turn when a early 90's E300 is starts challenging me. HAHA, I owned that exact car for many years and I know it well! I thought, lets see how much balls he has. We too the turn at around 90, I gunned it coming in and came out at around 110. He was keeping up :-D
Its a hard turn; the FR-S didn't even comment on it, it loves that shit. I know the MB well and as mushy as they seem at high speed they surprise the shit out of you! Great balance and control but stll, I know he was holding on with two hands. I killed the throttle at 100 and let him blow by, smelling like gas and oil! Out of know where a new Si (who was way behind us earlier) came flying up at like 120 and blew by us. I caught up in an instant and ran him till his balls deflated. I drive 30k a year on average,. lots of highway and ive been stalked, followed and incited by many in just a few weeks! Im finding this car can out handle most, the BMWs and Audi fans are most curious. The muscle car guys I ignore. No challenge, Oil and water. I need 300HP! TT or SC maybe in a year. |

For the past month I was actually a good boy in my car only because I wanted to break it in proper. I was challenged by a G35 on the freeway though; two girls pulled up next to me and saw my car then revved up and jumped in front of me. We came on to a tight exit turn and just to teach em a lesson I drafted them the whole way through. I could tell their car was having a hard time keeping speed around the turn but the FR-S was just cruising through that sh!t.
That's been it so far. Although last night I did keep pace with someone in a Camry going 90 on the 710. |

cruised with a boostlogic built flat black GTR couple weeks ago on the interstate..we exchanged thumbs up and he gave me a little show of its power. Only to have a Pontiac G8 do a ricer fly by 3 mins later. I lol'd
Out here in West Texas I get alot of lifted deisel trucks with obnoxious 8 in tail pipes sticking up like smokestacks on an 18 wheeler reving and blowing smoke. There are SO MANY new mustangs and camaros here and teeny boppers driving them around like morons. I get the occasional highschool kid asking me what kind of car it is then launch at the light. Most people dont race me because i look like a serios nerd. No tint and me eyeing ppl after they rev usually quites the noise |
