I cannot understand why the hate if you see a car like yours. Either stock or modded. Normally, it should get a thumbs up. Get over to it and stop worrying too much of what others are doing. Even the factory changed in the latest revision the character of the car . Yes it was nice to have a tail happy setup and slide, but there wasn't much of power slide! Many users were annoyed that the car was losing grip even in cases they didn't want to. I was annoyed too. So, the car was not perfect from the beginning and matured with the years. It will not satisfy everyone, I am sure some will say that the first year models were better. At least we should accept some common sense.
Not hate, definitely not hate, more of..."oh look, another twin..why so many".

I lucked out, someone totaled his car while he was parked at work. He ended up getting a 2016 in Black with the insurance money. It's not white anymore, so it's not annoying anymore.

I honestly don't see a ton,maybe on average about six to eight per week,but when I do,I kind of perk up. Usually when it's a guy in the other car,we give the head nod or wave,like we know we are in an exclusive club. Chicks don't really care about that though.

I know when I was on vacation in Seattle and Vancouver back in August,I saw probably double the amount than where I live. I guess i could somewhat understand if people get tired of seeing other Twins.

I had a hot lava FRS cut me off pretty bad during my commute home. My first thought was "sexy car", then I remembered he was a acting like a douche. "Oh right, screw you".


I love seeing these cars!

The big question isn't if seeing others annoys you but more do you still look back at yours when you are walking away?
I do every single time.

"Anyone one else hate seeing other twins?"

You may want to reconsider your original title then.

All depends on just where you live.

I rarely see another one here.

Maybe time for you to move.
