That's a 240sx....

Not too often. Normally I ignore it but I guess it depends on my mood. I'll admit to being a bit foolish at times, but I try not to be a dbag or dangerous about it.

Broffermoon · 03-26-2012, 08:06 AM

Dang, being an old fart, they look at the car and then at me.....end of story.

WheelmanSS · 03-26-2012, 10:03 AM

Someone reved at your camaro? cool story bro.

In related news, the sky is blue and grass is green.

Nothing wrong with it by itself, but when its driven by a dumbass challenging Camaros to street races, then there's something wrong

I get challenged all the time in my stratus...which is silly. Nobody wants to play when I'm in the Camaro, though. I get left alone most of the time.

2ndtimess · 03-26-2012, 12:06 PM

Or you can have one of these I keep in the trunk for the car shows, really pisses them off!!!

Grandeos · 03-26-2012, 01:19 PM

I get that a lot, but not as often as I'd expect. Most of the time I just look at them, laugh, and shake my head.

But the other day I was cruising Woodward, and an Audi A4 (with tints and exhaust) decided he wanted to toy with me. So at the next stop light, I decided to show him what he DIDN'T have...... V8 POWER!
Didnt speed, but I got the the speed limit before he barely crossed the intersection. He stayed a few cars behind me after that..... haha

DarkFox1 · 03-26-2012, 01:29 PM

I drove my 4th gen for a year, never once had anyone rev at me. Had my 5th for a week.. same story.

maybe I drive slow? Or I look slow? I would just ignore them if they did..

Had a pretty nice z28 IROC come up next to me on a 4 lane country road yesterday and we gave it a little go, just because it was in the middle of nowhere and was another camaro. More of a friendly acknowledgement. Those things are quick (not quick enough). What do they come with stock? Looked like early 90s but wasn't sure.

SabotAndHeat · 03-26-2012, 01:44 PM

I like the VW Turbo that came rolling up behind me...then switched to the open lane to my left. The light turned and I started rolling like normal. Then I heard his engine rev up and his car lurched forward to get out front. I launched past him ("under the speed limit"<---Legal disclaimer) then continued to a normal roll. I tapped my wrist watch for him to see as he passed. Poor widdle fella.
