For the last year my DD was a 1991 chevy caprice, all was good it was very reliable just a little mundane, I was only one time "challenged" by another driver to race. This was against a dodge ram 1500 5.9, hardly worth the gas I probably would have lost anyway.
Just yesterday I picked up a 1997 Eclipse GST, for those that do not know this is a FWD 2dr 2.0 turbocharged version of the standard eclipse, the only cosmetic differences from a Non turbo eclipse are the badges and a larger "arch" type spoiler. Besides the aftermarket wheels it is stock appearing, the only other modifications are hidden under the hood.
Just since yesterday I've been challenged or had people rev their exhaust at me twice(oddly enough both honda civics), in both of these situations I was in no position to race nor had the interest.
I'm really just wondering if any other sports car or muscle car owners have noticed how differently people act when your driving your "hot rod" as opposed to your daily beater?
