He gets in his car starts to pull away and yells at me "Scions suck get a real car!" Now here's this kid yelling at me telling me my car sucks when he is driving a run down 1990 something civic with a tin can exhaust, not only that but while i am pumping gas so it's not like i can show him anything you know. Why don't we get any respect?

and thats why honda guys all get bad names - because if fools like that. Its funny because I never would think someone would have the ***** to be a ***** like that if you are just standing there pumping gas.

gt mustangs are the worst. had one pull up beside me when they just pulled out from the grocery store. I'm on the phone and they tap the gas and jump back and forth. "Aight bro, i gotta go. someone in a stang wants to race" click. they tap it again, i punch it at 45mph ( broke traction while still leaving them behind) and finally let off when i get to 80, which wasn't too far. needless to say, they didn't get near me after that.

yes mustang drivers all think they are hot shizzz.... I was doing a nice and easy take off when this mustang came up next to me it was an older guy so I kept on driving normal then all of a sudden he takes off I am like wtf... if only I was boosted then I would have shown him a thing or 2... one thing about mustangs... they all sound like they are going faster than they really are...

ive never really had someone be a huge jerk to me yet. The only thing that happens to me is i sometimes get stares and laughs in the high school parking lot. I dont understand why people are so weird about it. I have a different taste in cars than you, so what?

haha
its funny because you drive a Z. and you know your scion is much faster (right now anyway)

Yep, but I don't get to many people messing with me in a Z which is funny. They see the Scion though and they think "Easy Kill". And to put icing on the cake, when my woman is driving it......"instant male ego bruising"..

Even before the turbo, had dudes trying to race us while she was driving, and get smoked.

I had a guy race me in his Z and for some reason I had a problem putting it into 4th and he thought he was cool because in his eyes he killed me ...but it surely was not that way at all. My car is pretty much the same speed as the Z ....maybe the z is a tadddd quicker. Either way I like my car and will be keeping it that way for a few more years. I havent had many people say anything but "nice car" .... I guess if I was 8-10yrs younger you get that HS BS but thats all over the HS scene ....95% of 17yr old males are punks.

nope... I hope I will be ordering from TurboToyotas within the month, but we will see... in my opinion TT and dezod are currently the best kits out... I know you have zpi and I have seen your vids, so I have respect for you and your car, just no respect for a company ripping people off... I even liked them too because of all of their videos and your vids... oh well, once I saw TT's mani I was hooked.... but enough of that

I do hate people that stare and act like you are driving a ford tempo with three donuts on it or something... its a nice car, a lot nicer than any other car out there in the price range

i've had a boosted tC and i currently have a 07 350z......i got tons of more people trying to race me in the tC, then in the z....but most of those guys were subie/evo/hondas....nowadays, i get porsches, is350's up the wazoo, and a bunch of beamers.....honestly i would keep the tC for shock factor street racing, cause the look on their faces are hilarious when they lose....but i do love the looks i get in the z (even though i have a gf) and how damn good the z is stock on the track.....either way, i got much respect for both cars
