Ive never had anything thrown at my car which is terrible but...
I was on the way to my moms house with the top down totally minding my own business when these kids comiing the other way in Mazda3 Wagons (may have been mazdaspeeds) just throw their big thumbs down at me. I was like WTF. I dont have anything done to the exterior of my car. I was just really confused on why they need to express their opinions when I never asked for them.

I was stopped at a red light in Daytona Beach when a lit cigerette came flying over my head and landed in my lap. I immediately looked in the direction it flew from and saw the culprits eyeing me and rolling up their window. I flicked the cigerette back at them as I spewed some angry words. They lost their smirks and wouldn't even look at me after that. I was so pissed.

If somebody's drink spilled all over your interior it would create a effing mess that would NEVER be completely cleaned up, no matter what you do.


Your car will NEVER be the same again. It will be sticky and will stink over time.

Most people who go this far to 'hate' are easy to spot.

IMO they are 2 or more kids ( 14-25 years old).

I try to stay away from them.

Not in my S, I used to drive a Ford Ranger: I was going down a street and about to go under an overpass that some kids (early teens) were walking across. They were directly in my line and I watched one of them throw something and boom heard it hit in the bed of the truck. I took the next right and circled around and caught up with them....this was all in the 'hood. I jump up on the side walk and cut them off, get out and start yelling at them and the 3 of them try to play the innocent game. People nearby were shocked that this big white guy was yelling at these black kids. Anyway, said what I wanted to and when they walked off I could hear the people in front of the store busting these kids out for doing something stupid and for almost having their ass kicked. I actually laughed at them when I heard all this.....now if they actually caused damage, I probably would have lost it and been in jail.

I can't hold my temper like that. One time while riding motorcycles, me and some friends were lucky enough to have a group of guys in an Expedition start tossing shit at us from the window. Glass bottles mcDonalds bags, that kind of shit. I just rolled up next to the passenger side and started beating the quarter panel with my glove. Then we just sped away, but damn it was so liberating.

Another time I had some people in traffic that felt like I cut them off. keep in mind were doing 70 on the interstate, and they roll up alongside screaming "**** you bitch, what the ****s your problem,dickhead.. Well I'm in this POS crashed VW Beetle already (haha) so I just speed up and they start tailgating. I turn into the hulk at this point. I just stand on the brake pedal with both feet. They smash into my rear at about 50MPH after which I just keep driving. I guess I immobilized them because they stayed right there blocking the fast lane. Took my car to the junkyard and never heard a word about it since.

^ LOL That is something I totally would have done myself if I had a POS car and they were F'ing with me.

This thread is shocking, and it's making me really pissed.
There are a bunch of fakes that do pussy things, but luckily I haven't encountered anything like that in my S. Best believe though that if I get a lap full of garbage, I am chasing down and dragging someone out of there car. Then later I will find out where they live to further the pain a bit more.

Motorcycles are the best thing to be on if you must retaliate. You can almost ALWAYS ketch back up to the car that was messing with you. Always carry a roll of pennies and just toss it down once you are in front of them. Messed up front end ftw. I hear people punch mirrors all the time too.

In the S, it is best to ketch up to them. It is hard to prove anything when reporting it to the police. They can question them, but without proof they can think that you are just picking a random plate out to get in trouble. Always retaliate ALWAYS!

Not in the S. I just had some kids in a truck call me a fag. I simply looked at the passenger and said "bend over if you want it that bad" and he got scared look.

On the bike, I never got too much crap, but it was an HD, it was modded a bit, and always dirty since it was my daily transportation. So I figure it was an asshole repellent type deal.

It really goes to show that a nice looking sports car brings out the envy in so many people. The worst thing that has happend tp me in the S was I was driving in the right lane up a hill within speed limits when a car passed me and the passenger yells "asshole" out of the window. Why? Becuase I can drive a nice car and he cant? Because his penis is the size of a light switch? I dont know. What ever it is our types of cars seem to really bring on the worst in people. Before I got the S I would see someone with a nice car and try to figure out how one day I may be able to own one, too. Not get pissed off at the person for being better off than me. Ah, whatever. The world is going to shit and incidents like this really seem to prove it. Jealousy brings out strange behaviour, for sure. This post is from a good friend of mine. Happened in his Mercedes CLK about a year ago. If you knew Maury, this story would piss you off all the more. One of the finest, most upstanding people I have ever met. Here's his story. -

"Last Saturday Beth and I decided to drive up to Erie, Pa to visit my son. It was a beautiful day and we were cruising the back roads of Route 19 top down enjoying the day. A pickup truck was in front of us loaded with firewood. He was driving about thirty miles an hour in a fifty mile an hour zone. We got to a long uphill stretch and I decided to pass him. Well I guess he didn
