Why do people buy sports cars if they are going to drive them slow?

[Dis]

When I buy my mustang, I'm going to drive real ****ing fast.

It doesn't bother me too much if I get behind a cadillac that's going slow. You expect that. But being stuck behind slow moving mustangs and other sports cars.

[kittenOFchaos]

Amen.

[Sava]

I don't care what kind of car it is. I hate getting stuck behind slow people.

The worst is when you are on the expressway and people are in the left lanes going slow...

The signs on the highway even say "SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT"

left lanes are PASSING LANES

GET THE **** OUT OF THE WAY *******S

And I don't even speed... much... at most, I go like 5-10 over...

on the expressway I go like 75-80 depending on traffic conditions

but seriously I don't speed much... I haven't gotten a ticket since 2001, and my last 3 tickets weren't even for speeding... they were for having a loud system (cuz I had two 12 inch subs...) and then the stupid ***** cop gave me another ticket for squeeling my tires in the parking lot...

nevermind the fact that it was new blacktop and that I wasn't even going fast... I didn't peel out or anything... when I went to court, that ticket was thrown out... I had pictures of the parking lot that was just resurfaced

The judge even told the cop not to waste the courts time with vindictive tickets!!!

There's very little more disturbing than seeing a man driving a convertable sports car fast with his toupee flopping up and down.

Why do people buy 4x4s if they never hit the dirt?

because.

[GePap]

Prestige. Ego.

The point is that those cars COULD go fast, IF, the driver wanted. More importantly, they are expensive, hence, a status symbol.

My car moves by 230 horse powers
My 4000 sq feet house don't move at all.

The problem with Dis' car is the trailer dragging behind it

[Footie Mad]

It's all about a gigantic metal penis extension for some people, and i'm not talking about some bizarre piercing here. In certain circles it get's you respect, prestige and maybe even loose women. Maybe something for you Dis?

no silly, the trailer is not meant to move

the only time the trailer moves is when the tornado picks it up

I totally ****ing agree.

I can get obnoxious when people are going slow in the left lane on the highway. Especially if I'm on a long trip and just tired of people's bs. Damn bastards.

Then there's those of us who can't afford toupees.


One reason I tend to drive slow (at least on surface streets) is the constant assassination attempts by my fellow drivers. It's nine miles to work and one morning I had nine near-accidents from people suddenly changing into my lane or pulling out in front of me. When you're in a sports car, drivers (a) tend not to see you or (b) see you and ignore your presence figuring you're so small you'll get out of their way.

Unless you are driving long distances, speeding does not save you any significant amounts of time.

[DRoseDARs]

Unless you are a cop, driving slower than the traffic to your right means you're violating traffic law. Left lane is for passers, not hall monitors.
