Alright, I'm probably one of the newest S2000 owners on this site (about 6 months) and have a burning question that I need answers to.

I just got back from a nice hour long drive on I-5 north to Arlington then back to Lake Stevens on Burn road. The question I have is "Is it just me ?" or does anyone else get F---ed with every time you take the S2000 out for a drive. I've also noticed that most of the cornholes that are being the asses, are the lifted monster truck guys that insist in riding your ass, cut you off, won't let you merge, etc.

Is this nothing more then jealously ? believe me I consider myself a humble person, so it's almost embarrassing to even mention that. So does anyone else have this problem or is it just me. My wife says it's just me, but I never have this problem while driving my Element or TL.

Do you have any similar stories, please share it with me/others and please help shut my wife up once and for all (kidding, she's the bestest)

 

Jealousy I think. Did you have the top down today? Then definitely jealously.

I've experienced my fair share of it as well.

 

whenever i take my car out everybody always crowd me or pace me and it gets annoying. you arent the only one!

 

[QUOTE=mweaver,Jan 26 2011, 05:36 PM] Jealousy I think.

 

Yep, I was the only one I saw with the top down today, but saw lots of top up convertibles.

 

It's not you. All kinds of bizzare with the S2000 that never happened with my other 21 cars. Most of the cornholes were import car and v6 Mustang owners. The MR2 revving in front of Bellevue Square so hard the boom and resultant oil fire wasn't entirely unexpected. My wife almost fell out of the car she was laughing so hard. The persistant ricer flybys on I-90/I-5 were anthema to my regular night club commutes. I saw enough stupid antics on the part of the V6 Mustang crowd that I'll probably carry a bias to the grave.

On the other hand, we used to do enough stupid crap as a group, it probably started a negative regional reputation. The wackness may be karma.

 

I've never had a problem with the s2000 in the Seattle area.
I've encounter jerks every now. The ones that annoy me the most, are the people that refuse to give it gas on the highway on-ramp.
merging at 50mph is not safe...

 

i was driving around seattle yesterday and a lot of people tried to race me. turbo'd eclipse, voltex body kit evo xiv, and IS F

 

Just had too

 

I can't remember if I have ever been harassed driving the S2 (other than when Ray harassed me) .. and no one really tries to race me either ... Well, maybe it does happen but I just don't notice!!
