My point exactly. I see some really bad behavior by some of my fellow Camaro owners. The neighborhood I live in, there are tons of Corvette owners, and they all seem to just enjoy having one and think it's the pinnacle of automotive performance. I had one try to race me and I think he was shifting at 3500 rpm, still expecting to walk away. Lots of Vette drivers like that, but I would still be driving one if my wife didn't object (Unfortunately the old lady insists on any "toys" having 4 seats so they at least have the capability of practical use if needed.). They're great all around performance cars.

They don't screen car buyers; you pay the $$$ and they give you a car.

If I were to assume a stereotype of car owners just based on sheer volume of assclowns driving them, it would be the PT Cruiser, with the Acura Integra coming in a close second, but again that wouldn't make any sense.

apparently you haven't ran into any otherwise you would agree, never talked to a person who thinks a PT is cool but im sure there are some, and there are a ton of GT stang owners here where i live and of all of them i have talked to only 2-3 have actually know what they were talking about but im sure that comes with most of them still being in HS or fresh out of it.

no kidding. he must have been a pretty bad driver.
