I rev at people all the time......I like the sound of my car and I honestly do it whenever I feel the need whether there is another cool car near me or not.
I like the sound of other people's cars and love when they rev back.
Just rev back and have fun with other car people, just because someone revs their engine doesn't mean they want to race. Maybe they just like your car and want to hear it?
How can you deny them that request? It is a compliment!
Kind of like when construction guys whistle at a hot chick. Well my car is whistling at your hot car.
Hell, all of you should probably like the sound of decent motors with GOOD aftermarket exhaust, considering you each own one.
As far as wasting gas is concerned, revving really puts a dent in my bank account......Oh wait, its a nearly untrackable amount of gas used.
If someone here is concerned about revving wasting gas, I'm not sure why they own a car that redlines at 9k and is built to do it frequently without issue.
"I'm so mature and practical". No, I'm sorry to be the bearer of reality but no one here is practical. We own 2 door 2 seat cars that can easily slice our heads off and launch us out if they roll over while we hurtle them down the road with speeds that would yield impact forces exponentially higher than any part of our bodies were designed to be able to take without complete failure. When we could all drive vehicles much less expensive with better fuel economy and safety measures while avoiding the stress of modifications, police attention, theft concerns, or nagging significant others.
So, let's recap.
1. Practicality - Disproven when we bought S2000s. Period. (and that's alright! its called fun)
2. Gas - We drive 9k rpm cars that are specifically designed to rev hard while still being streetable gas sippers, what's one rev? (that's called fun)
3. Mature - We're all car nerds talking on the interwebz about the logically unjustifiable vehicles that we love to drive. (and this is called fun)
Rev that S2k.

I never really get revved at, but when driving around the city with the top down, I get a lot of dudes hollering at me. some of the interesting ones that i remember:
"Hey, f@#k you S2k"
"The Sun is not out" (It was at night)
"It's not summer yet"
I don't know what it is about having no roof that makes people really want to shout, but whatever it is, it's workin.

When I have the top down I get a lot of younger dudes in diesel trucks that will pass me just to let off and floor it making plumes of black smoke intended to smoke me out.But I live in hillbilly country so most of you prolly don't have to deal with it
