Why's this cobra owner mad?!

Why mustang owner so mad?

So quick story I couldn’t help but laugh at....

The other day I took my Camaro to the local auto bell to get it all clean and shiny, anyway, I pulled my car into the entrance of the drive through and watched my car go halfway through before I noticed a huge crowd around a car that was getting detailed, so naturally I walked outside and took a look. It was a nice looking mystic cobra with black rims and aftermarket tail lights had a nice sound to it as well, so naturally I complimented the driver on his ride….

No more than 2 minutes after I complimented him my car was started by one of the employees and pulled to the far end of the parking lot. (my car sounds like a flat out nascar even at idle, I will post a link at the bottom so you can hear it) Anyway, the crowd that WAS at this mystic cobra migrated its way over to my Camaro. Obviously the 1st question was “what the hell you got in that thing”, so I went into all the mods and answered the questions of all the people in the crowd…. So I poke my head out of the crowd only to see the guy in the cobra with a sour/butt hurt look on his face get in his car and angrily speed off.

Why is this dude so mad? Cant people just appreciate a nice ride regardless if the make/model is their cars traditional rival?!, I mean, I somehow managed to tell a cobra driver that he has a nice ride, you’d think they could return the favor.

Anyway, the link is at the bottom to my YouTube page, you can find several videos of my car, it may help put in perspective why everyone made their way to my car and began to ask questions…

If anyone has any other stories like this, I’d like to hear them.

He's just mad because he was no longer the center of attention.

Sounds like a "I don't get why someone did this (actually I do, but I'll pretend I don't), and hey in the mean time look at me" kind of thread time.

Use a private coin-operated car wash next time.

When you draw a crowd like that, you never know what will happen.
