are FRS drivers all d-bags?

axmea? · 04-26-2013, 12:43 AM

Beat them to the punch and give them a thumbs up so there are no issues. Most chill when you do that. And this applies to any driver in their cool car.

To be honest I have more important things to worry about.

I remember once I had a guy rev it on me and I simply showed him this

He busted out laughing, And gave me a thumbs up for the laugh

Oh man not another one of these threads!

It's funny, most of the FR-S/BRZ owners that I know are former Z owners so by default all of us are douchebags

Generally speaking, when people rev on me, I just think, "Are they going to pay my ticket? No? Then why bother to risk it?"

Ya i live in wannabe stunna heartland. South Orange County where everyone wants to show off. Cant even go to the gym after work without haters trying to race me.

dP3NGU1N · 04-26-2013, 01:40 AM

I'm either oblivious or lucky. Live in LA work in OC and I don't believe I've ever had anyone try to race me at stop lights or rev at me. Infact, on the highway I'm usually the one going above the speed limit and passing everyone. Makes me wonder if other people think I'm doing a ricer fly-by and if, perhaps, you guys are just imagining these scenarios.

Just throwing it out there; if it's something you're looking for, you're eventually going to find it. Humans being pattern finding creatures and all... It's also possible my car looks too stock for people to care. No external mods

JungleZ · 04-26-2013, 01:54 AM

Ya bad luck i guess too much city driving, I don't really get revved on anymore but for some reason people get excited when they see the z and want to pass me. Of course I just let them but man it hasn't been pleasant at times.

Z370Z011 · 04-26-2013, 02:05 AM

i have a friend with an FR-S, alway ranting on about how superior his car is in comparison to the Z. Bottom line, i dont bother pay attention to ignorant people on the road or off.

Found the old quote, from 2009, but it applies here:

But a lovable douchebag.

UNKNOWN_370 · 04-26-2013, 09:04 AM

I have the first BRZ fly by thread somehwere around here from a couple months back, so you know where i stand. lol

Pretty much any A-hole in any brand car trying to agg me and fly by me is going to be called out a douche. It's not my fault though if there are a small batch of cars that repeatedly chase me around and i call them out for their Douchebaggery. I don't have the drivers name. So i identify him by his car.

So be it.

I've never had any issues with the few I have run into in the Dallas area.
