Nice...in all of that rambling, you coined a nice new phrase for "people trying to **** you off on the road to get a rise"..."Road Al Qaeda" Now THAT I like!

I am confused, should I sell this car because it's starting to attract more and more idiotic drivers or keep it?

Blame the ACLU for that one as they supported them. The city/county has been trying to ban it but they are protected under "Free Speech."

i would say keep it man there will always be drivers with cars trying to prove no point on the road no matter what kind of car you drive, c63 is a great car and i love it, unless you are bored of it and wanted to upgrade to a better car.

It'd have to be older for sure...by the time most have the money for a porsche, they have a family...and 997GT doesn't scream family. Aren't they releasing a 4-door (or have already)? Perhaps that will bring some youthfulness/immatureness to their sites.

MB (and BMW) have to accept that they have high powered cars in the price-range of 20-30 somethings that also fit a family's needs.

in other words you mature crowd should get cars that are mature like s63 65, sl63 65 cl63 65 if you got the money for them, c63 is mainly a youth car like the m3.

No. I found it amusing that you clearly didn't realize who yooker was talking about. Think it over; you'll get it.

Definitely get a Porsche. People in Porsche forums are more mature and polite. The best thing is that they can complete a proper sentence.

Learn to live above the line and not below. Do not let other people control your attitude or determine if you will have a bad day. Get over it and do not engage. Only an immature child engages in that behavior. Finally take it as a compliment that you got noticed and drive gracefully off on your own as if you can't be bothered with the other immature drivers out there. I bet the kid driving the other car was just that...

On second thought, I'd rather drive the strip!
.....Running the strip is great with the exhaust bouncing/reverberating off the casinos and looks from all the walkers is prices-less.

My pet peeve is the Hyundai owners and their like who think they have power, I'm glad they don't own anything more powerful as they would cause more wrecks then they already do. Mostly let 'em go but if they are jerks they get some good 'ol american or german muscle blowing by........

Sin +1 on the crappy drivers in Vegas, lived here for 10-years, total of 5 fender benders, lived 20-years in Colorado total of 1 very minor bumper ding.

Hyundais? i would think they would be flagged to the side on the strip...

My step-dad and mom are driving me nuts with the Genesis right now...they are like "Hey, we can get the same kind of performance out of a $40K Hyundai NOOOOOO!!! It is amazing what old people will fall for

Yeah, well I guess if I saw that on the road I may change my mind about them...but a stock Genesis is not to be compared with a c63...that is blasphemer.

If they have their turn signal indicators on, give them space. I HATE how my signal is on and the person isn't paying attention or refuses to give me space...in that case if I can fit I'm merging. I did everything I was supposed to. In Chicago though its natural to merge with little space...thats just how things are done. Where I am in Madison, WI though the drivers don't pay attention to ANYTHING.

Especially not the subpar football team

J/k...I figure you are a badgers fan...sort of have to be living around there...I'm a Paternoville native (well, actually I'm a 'burgh native but gave Paternoville a lot of money in the late 90's).

Big city driving is way different...you have to expect that. But in Madison, you can expect that BAC of most is WELL above .10
