I feel that most people HATE the WRX.

I'm not talking import car people, I'm talking other citizens in other cars. I've found my car pisses off more fellow drivers than anything I've ever driven. I got followed home and BRIGHTED tonight.. oOoOo.

My 240 never made anyone go as crazy mad as my WRX does, and I drove that like a retard. In the WRX I've been followed many times, flicked off, had my life threatened, brake checked, cut off then brake checked, brighted more, beeped at, swerved at.. the list goes on..Oh yeah not to mention I've been pulled over more times in my WRX than almost all my other cars combined. (haven't been ticketed yet in it, but geeze)..

Dave you feel the same way? I don't think ppl like quick four doors or something?

Little edit note, I really don't drive my rex like an idiot either, I generally obey the laws, with an occasional WOT pull every once and a while. WOT pulls are where the majority of my problems come into play Ive noticed... Generally the other party is in no danger, and I'm in a "safe" place, just angry people that feel they need to help enforce the law... HA.

/rant. and yeah I made my own thread to state this.

I'll give last nights example. Heading home on the highway, pass a guy in a truck. He comes back up and comes up next to me and paces me. I got sick of being paced and dropped her to 3rd went WOT and pulled away. Then he follows me home.....followed by the brighting...

Or like Tony stated maybe they just know its a flaming homosexual at the wheel?

I've just come to the conclusion that no one on the planet knows how to drive. Where do they get their fucking drivers licenses, out of a cracker-jacks box?!

I've heard that if you send in 10 box tops they'll send you one for free if you pay shipping.

its probably imports in general, along with the honda guys who probably get pulled over more than anyone in the world... i swear mo got pulled over 3 times a week during the summer

i get ppl pulling up to me asking me whats done to it, to do a burnout/get on it, commenting they like it ect ect...

ive been pulled over a few times doing well over the speed limit, cop lets me off with just a verbal warning telling me to be safe... hell, 3/4 of the time i end up having a conversation with the cop about my car :roll:

the clear answer is go buy a domestic :lol: :lol:

It's true though.

Fart Cannon = instantly getting shit from everything from ricers, cops, pickup trucks, minivans.....everything. If it's a lowered import, cops will yank you. I used to keep a collection of warnings in my GST. I think I was up to 9 when I sold it last. The Mustang or Trans Am, I could drive like a complete dickhead with no reprocussions. Even driving normally, I never got crap.

I've been pulled over twice in it. Once for leaving a bar at 2:45 am taking my buddy back (basically seeing if I was drinking which I wasn't), and I got one ticket for a failure to stop when I rolled a yellow turning red instead of slamming on my brakes infront of a cop to not go through.

Dunno about the WRX hate. Cory, your car is a little 'loud' between the lights and wheels. I'm sure a closer to stock appearing WRX wouldn't get so much crap. Hell I'd love to have one myself. Having a modded import of any kind is almost a garuntee to catch shit though.

Yeah, well shes in winter mode now, so rocking stockers with SnowSports. But the black headlights I suppose stand out more. My age might have something to do to it as well. If they saw and older guy driving it, and not some "punk kid" maybe they would just look the other way.

I watch these Crown Vic Hoopies and local cruisers struggle in the snow while my little "rice box" just blasts right through it. :thumbsup:

You love to blast things haha.

One my car is louder than your
two I look more punk than you do when I have my hair in a mohawk
three I have subs two of them and amplified highs.

Thus my conclusion is, its just you hah

lol Dave, so what your trying to say is your car is loud no matter how ya slice it.

On a side note, some girl in a cavalier almost swerved into me on the way to YSU today while i was right next to her, so i guess no love for non muscle domestics lol.

You must have given him some reason to search your car. An illegal search and seizure will not only lose him his job but he could get jail time himself. You had to have provoked it somehow.
