So true!

I get harassed by men in RX's all the time wanting to race... I'll just be driving 80 on the freeway and they think I wanna race lol... It is a shame their car doesn't handle very well at 100... heheheh

There was a study a while back done in the U.K., talking about how 25% of people would let a nicer car in to merge. That means the other 75% wouldn't !!!

There is definitively jealousy out there... At the end of the day, you've just got to find a twisty road and put that grin back on your face !!

Got news for everyone: it's not that you drive a nice car, it's that the world is full of people who are inconsiderate and only think about themselves. If you're passing them, they think "oh no, I can't *follow* someone else, I'm number one" and speed up; if you try to merge, they think "oh no, he's going to *steal my place*"...
if I was driving an X, the first (useless) mod I would do is install *bush bars* front and back... :rofl:

I agree, but find that the nice car increases the likelyhood of the rudeness in others. Also agree that a-holes do tend to try and bully nicer rides thinking the owners are more likely to back down. Except I'm older and have more insurance.

I have taken the X5 to limit. :thumbup: There are always section of certain highways where you can speed and avoid the speedtraps at the same time. Just be sure you don't speed on a speedtrap.
