Please quote what statement you are referring to, and I would be happy to address any questions.

**** that, dude, I'm not going through all your posts to find the ones you've been called out on. You and I both know it's happened, and there's no reason for you to be in this thread when all you can do is complain. You're like a 90 year old woman at a Skillrex concert.

You are the one complaining about my using false facts. I ask you to support that claim, and you complain some more.

I'm not playing your childish game. You know exactly what I'm referring to. My point is that I struggle to see why you're here. You don't like the RS. Great, you have every right not to like it, but why waste your time complaining about a car that you're never going to buy anyways?

Just ignore him. He will eventually go away. Not worth the time.

That's probably why those of us that don't do such nonplus activities get to enjoy outrageously high insurance rates!! Thanks.

Considering I've never been in accident that was my fault (I've been rear ended twice while sitting in traffic), and have only a few tickets with 0 points on my record, care to explain your reasoning here? I'm fairly responsible when it comes to when/where I engage in "questionable" driving.

I'm with this guy. Just because I enjoy my car doesn't mean I'm irresponsible about it.
Higher insurance rates? Talk to all the people that commit fraud and/or pad their insurance estimates. Just because my tires break traction doesn't mean I'm putting others in danger.
Personally, I pitty the thought of someone who owns a performance vehicle and doesn't enjoy it.

**edit: I haven't had a ticket since 2001 and (knock on wood) have only had one at-fault accident in 22 years of driving. Even then, it was self involved.

10/10 would read again.

I have nothing useful to contribute though, I just like the entertainment here.
