Negative comments/remarks thrown at your beautiful car?

My front bumper got keyed, I don't know if you can be that much more of a hater than that.

That stuff pisses me off. Where were you parked?

[Alltezza]

I was parked at Subway away from all the cars. The only thing I could think of was that there was this ghetto white high school kid walking around the area that could have keyed it. Or this guy with an Audi that parked close to me and had his uncontrollable kid screaming and laughing running around the area of my car.

My friends all drive Evos and Mustangs. They consistently called the FRS slow. So I supercharged it without telling them. They no longer call the car slow.

Lol that's what I'm doing I was looking into the Edelbrock since there's no intercooler to show that I'm boosted and it'll look so stealth lmao.

I know one guy who dislikes the cars in general because he spends a lot of times on tracks where they were being developed on and that were "in the way" but even he has nothing bad to say about my car specifically.

Other than that, nothing but downright stalker behavior from other people. They speed up in traffic to roll next to me, they slow down to check it out as they roll by, they circle it in parking lots to look at every angle and on at least two occasions an impromptu photo shoot broke out around my car with people posing next to it.

As a reward for getting close, but never touching the car, of course I watched them as I walked up, I let the young guy sit in it, start it up and rev the engine. He was in love with the car and I can see why, it is a stunning car with a lot of character. It doesn't look like a $30,000 car at all.

Now, that guy in the GT-R who launched on me at the light thinking I would try to drag race him, he's a special case. I know where he lives and he lives close; we will meet again and lil BRZ told his big brother about the mean old bully. He will have a talk with that car when the new engine is done.

Put this beast on a Canyon run/track it will beat all those straight line wannabe drag racers lol

My wife despises my car. She has been in it twice and will never, ever ride with me again. She thinks we are going to get run over by a truck and be killed. She isn't joking and truly fears it. Doesn't help that when sitting in it all you see is other vehicles door handles and trailer hitches I guess.

Oh she'll ride in it but she holds on for dear life and cringes regularly. Ooh boy does she hate the seat belt too but that's because she's short and it cuts across her neck. You should've heard the chortles this afternoon when a Prius dropped us leaving a traffic light and then we got passed by a minivan immediately after before I even got to 3rd while she's sitting there saying see what happens when you get a toy car

Where the hell do you guys drive that Priuses can get the jump on you and mini vans can pass in a few feet?

My wife loves my car. Well, she loves me too, so she obviously has bad judgment.

Heh, the guy in front of me was in no rush and I couldn't get out and around him before the van jumped into the next lane from behind me and just ran up the hill before I could get out of 2nd. That Prius really took off though and left a nice opening but the van just outran me to the hole. Guess I just don't drag much anymore especially with the wife in the passenger seat

So FI or not, take one of those "friends" for a spin on the curviest road you know and let them have it until they're ready to puke and piss themselves, and then let them out on the side of the road. If they are that uninterested in learning just why you bought your car, they can't be much in the way of genuine friends.
