this type of crap sucks and it happens all the time. i go to school in Hartford CT and i came out to my car one day just to see muddy boot prints walking up my hood, windshield and roof. looks like he had some sort of studs or rocks stuck in it too because he got some nice chips on the hood. as well as a small crease by the washer nozzle. there lucky that i didn't see them do it, because i wouldn't have thought twice about ending them right there with out any problems, they wouldn't have even known what hit them.

oh and +1 for people not knowing what an evo is and asking if it s a Subaru. i actually had someone tell me hey man go blow some reverse donuts you got that Subaru all wheel drive. i was VERY disappointed in them lol

is your evo flat black, with red rims on it maybe?? i was in old town over the summer on vacation and i saw this car and was like hey i have one of those!!!

and i get tons of negative attention, mostly from younger people with something to prove that drive muscles, civics or more expensive bmws, and any hard *** in between that 1. doesnt know how to drive , and 2. couldnt keep up any ways, they really are just dissatisfied with their own car. i get the finger alot, and people purposefully blowing by me only to be right next to me at the next stop light which can get pretty awkward, just generally rude and jealous behavior. Most of the more mature older guys that know anything about cars will compliment me on it though, i actually got my uncle to admit that it could keep up with his C5 easily. i also keep it really really clean which the older guys seem impressed about.

People that know cars, know evos, girls and rich guys dont know evos lol. Most muscle car owners who give thumbs down are jealous because they actually know what you have. I know plenty of girls who love my car more than my truck (2006 Dodge ram 2500 thunder road, lifted, beautiful rims). They love the speed part even more. Im in college and every guy on campus knows what it is pretty much when they see me roll by they all stare in awe lol.

i would say just ignore them. What do you expect from stupid people? I always laugh at them, and this is the most damage you can do with them. You know the BIG american ego...First, it is hard to start laughing ,but when you see they face, it is getting easyer and easyer.
you don't need to prove them anything . They know you are fast. Those guys need, or at least they feel they need to prove something.

i thought that i would get a lot more of that, especially in vegas. no one has really tried to race me except some blacked out charger the other day, he just gave me thumbs up when he finally caught up that sucks about the keying though...

Sorry to read about the bad experiences, man. I have had neither positive or negative. I get mostly the "when did you get the Subaru?" question. I don't even correct them anymore....I just go with it.

As for the musclecars, they don't mess around much. Most musclecar owners should know the outcome...their heavy cars being either smoked or fried, ha-ha. Oh, and I am 35 btw, and I still love stirring it up with punks every once in a while.

See where i am, my car is like loved, south florida, a lot of rich kids but they know their cars and know what i drive. No one really owns muscle cars here, mostly bmws, lexus, and nicer cars, btu they definitly have respect for my evo.
