Default i cant stand honda civic type r drivers... or is it just me.

i dont know what it is but most people i see who drive honda civic type r.. think they have the fastest car around.. it gives me so much pleasure when i come up next to these in my erst.. just to c the look on there face when im parked up at the next set of traffic lights waiting for them.. lol!!! im also waitin for the day i can wipe the smug luk off a owner of the e46 m3.. dont know how many other people feel the way i feel.. or maybe im just a hater.. hahaha....

i dont mind the drivers who can take it that they been beat by a rst and give u thumbs up because they actually like cars to start with..

cant under estimate the m3, think you will be surprised how hard it is to shake one off, also you should have seen the look on my face when sitting at nearly 160 and a m3 just came sailing past with ease

Civic Type R drivers are easy to upset.

M3 driver's are upset if you can keep up which is about all you can do. The M3 is a quick car. Had many a tussle and I can hold my own against them but that's about it. Even if I beat them it's not by large margins usually a cars length.

defo know what you mean about type r's mate get right on my tits, but i stil haven't found one to worry me, usually dealt with them by 4th gear lol.

M3's are a different story though, silly power from the get-go

I have had ago at both in my focus rs 245bhp, the civic was a joke was not fast at all. If you are leaving m3s the you must have a lot of power, I only had ago at a convertable which is a lot slower than the coupe and that left me quite easily.

OMG those Civic Type R drivers ought to be shot, they buy a car that looks like a tipped up shoebox, hasn't even got a turbo, just 'cos it revs to 15,000 rpm they think it's special!

Anyway, word is they roll over easier than an A Class, good I say

Know where your coming from, they all think they have a fast car
Whats worse is i work for Honda, and most of the guys there think they are fast Until you mention that you own a 300bhp escos and all goes silent And then you tell them that your old 1.6 ERST used to eat them

Can you see what Ive done there. You accuse them of having snobbery towards other cars, then you do the same about your Escort. Why let it bother you. I they're faster let them go, if you are then get on with it.

I get more irritated with anybody who flashes me because Ive dared to overake them. I dont give a monkeys what car/van/scooter they're in They're all slow moving twats to me.
