> [@ShalerPunk](#): > > But when I hear sports car, i think Supra, Elise, RX7… purpose-manufactured vehicles, not good cars that were modified into performance vehicles. It’s all semantics though. yes! I’d say a lot of cars can be modified to have characteristics of a sports car, but a TRUE sports car is purpose-built with those intentions. i really wouldn’t call a honda civic a sports car. ---

I think of a sports car as being something with two seats and more purpose-built such as a Vette, Viper, 360 Modena, S2000, etc. M3…I think of it as a GT. It is sedan based. It is certaintly sporty but also has room for 4 adults and a decent amount of luggage… ---

i think trying to sucker kids into following you through a turn too fast and consequently wrecking is gay ---

Well if he wants to follow it his choice. Not mine i just gave him the option Josh who talks shit on the internet but really is not like that in real life BTW personally i have seen this happen before, not on purpose any of the 3 time thoughs, didnt even know i was being “chased”. usually just a case of someone not paying attention to anything but the car in front and not realizing that they can not do what i am doing. I actually felt really bad about, especiallly the one lady who wasnt trying to “race” just wasnt paying attention. ---

Dude when i am in front, and someones behind me. like on a onramp, i bet most people on this board drive fast around onramps. How is it my fault when some is just in trance, and following whoever it is front. I am sorry i am only responsiable for me, and have been doing good job in about 90,000 miles of driving. I have never wrecked into anything myself. Do i drive to fast were i shouldnt yes, but i never excede 8/10th of what my car can do, nor do i go out with the intention of wrecking people. Just people IMO are dumb and dont pay attention to themselves. when they have a buick its going to be quite tough to follow on a onramp. There not trying to go fast just to dumb to relize that they are going too fast for there car.
