It's nice to come out and see another nice sports car parked next to you.

Vague thread titles are a surefire way to get people to read them!

just to piss you off :P

Relax people are gunna park by you. Its not like you have a Maclaren F1 or anything. and even then, people would probably still do it. Who cares? As long as they dont ding you. Do what you can to protect 1 side of the car with a curb or something, but just dont take it so seriously??

The rub is, if I could afford a maclaren f1 I wouldnt care if it got dinged because I could easily afford to fix it. But when you are a middle class guy driving a 32K car, well then you start to concern yourself as to where you park- If i am driving a million dollar car then it would be assumed I have millions and already have a body guy standing by for little rerpairs.

There is only one time that i will 100% not ever tailgate someone, that is when they are in the slow lane. My first car was a 1993 Jeep Wrangler YJ and that son of a gun barely did 70 (on a good day) so i stuck to the slow lane. However, people that get on the freeway at 55 then move over to the FAST/PASSING lane and hold steady at 65 get an eye full of high-beam and some time a blast of my PA system to "GET THE !@#$ OVER!"

Oh, so you're THAT guy... Just don't be surprised when you end up rear ending someone or worse. I feel much the same as you when someone else is being a slow-poke in the fast lane (which is where I spend most of my time), but I NEVER ride someone's ass. That's bad juju, man. You're begging to screw your front end up.

Happens to me all the time. It goes with the territory of having one of the most sought after cars in the country. Everyone just wants a closer look.

Yea, exactly. Some people act like they spent thirty dollars and not thirty thousand dollars on their car!

[ASSASSIN]

Yup, lol. I'm that guy. I have no problem passing people in the emergency lane either. I've done it a few times in my Camaro now. Until the day I get into an accident or get my license taken away i will continue to drive the way i drive. Just how im wired. lol

Wait... aren't you the guy who posted complaining about 5th gen owners at car shows not parking close enough to each other so you snub them and their silly club t-shirts?

Oh, the irony... no smileys can convey the irony.
