Okay, please excuse this rant. Why the hell would you buy a lightweight 400+ hp car and not even use 100 of those ponies ?? Why would you buy such as fast car just to hold up traffic and drive like a grandma ?? Why can't you drive like a normal person ?? Are you trying to prove something by driving so damn slow ? C'mon you are driving slower than the grandma in her Buick in the right lane, she's 6 car lengths ahead of you and still hasn't hit the speed limit.  Excuse me, but why do people buy such high horsepower fast cars yet can't even drive normally ? I mean they aren't even that good looking, a 5th gen Camaro looks 100 times as good as even the new C6 Corvettes(which have been around since what ? 2003 ?)..... so going slow so people can stop and stare just makes no sense. I am guessing these are the people that brag about getting 20-25 mpg+ on their corvettes.... but what's the point of driving dangerously slow just to get good gas mileage in a V8-powered pure bred sports car ? Riding their tails or not.... all the drivers I have been seeing drive much slower than normal traffic. |
So are you the guy with the G35 who this it is the elixir to the automotive world. Part about having a cool looking and fast car in my opinion is not having to drive it fast because it isn't a poser. Let me guess your the guy who challenges every single person in a Camaro, Corvette, Mustang and Challenger to informal highway on-ramp races just to make yourself feel better about your car. What is the point your trying to make here? Seriously your going to rip on someone for not treating their Corvette like a track toy when you drive "entry level" luxury?
