Mercedes 320 CDI. At a set of lights I needed to turn left in 30 meters, but was in middle lane. Couldn't get infront of the merc!! I was annoyed to say the least. I now respect them and Golf 1.9 TDI's
I only respect any one driving quicker than me with out being aggressive

I'm usually pretty respectful of other cars, well, such as EVO or DB7 for instance. Then there are the ones that just make me laugh so hard I almost don't get away from the lights (I once had a smart car wanting to race me, oh and a 1 litre Rover 100). Bikers I always keep an eye out for. They often get a raw deal with drivers deliberately blocking them and I like bikes, so I always let them go first.

The old Audi S4 Twin Turbo gets my vote! Understated, and in standard form fast 0-62 in 5.5 but chipped a shade under 5, and it still looks like a normal road car..... impressive, I should know my Son has one!
Maybe one day I will tell the tail of the Mad Mile... Anyone from East Kent!

The vehicles I give most respect to are buses, and bikes.
Buses because I use them a lot, and understand how the drivers feel, and bikers because they are almost always much faster than me.

All of the aforementioned seem to hold me up.
I tag along at a respectable distance behind something going fast, but they tend to slow down for corners and stuff.
Buses have their own lanes, so WTF do they keep using ours?
