    why do people drive corvettes...

    ...like they are freaking economy cars? I live in Penscacola, FL and down here it is very common to see a corvette, mostly C5's and C6's.

    Im not discriminating or saying anything about who drives one but DAMN get in the gas!!. I see people in a corvette trying to turn out of a side street and wating until they cant see nothing from here to freaking Mobile Alabama....they drive it like its a damn honda.

    I understand people buy one because it looks nice, but damn open up the gas and get it out in traffic! I cant stand seeing people driving corvettes like they are 4 cylinders. They are performance cars, they were built to be driven hard!

    Huh? So I am suppose to smoke em up every time I pull away from a stop sign or stop light because I drive a Vette? I suppose to pull out in front of folks because I'm in my Vette?
    What you are describing is folks in there cars driving like sane people versus some dumbass. You see mature folks take it to the track and abide by traffic laws and concern for others safety when on public roads versus driving like aforementioned dumbasses. However I do admit to the occasional run up....sure...but 99% of the time normal folks drive within the accepted parameters......
    This is my signature. It is mine. Nobody else has one like it.

    No, im not saying pull out in front of somebody, or cut people off. The reason I target this at vettes is becasue I dont see the majority driving F-bodys but younger guys. What im saying is people around here drive vettes like they are going to get run over by other cars if they dont wait until they see something coming forever. I always see them wait to turn a corner and watching for cars until they are 3 miles away. Im not saying they should pull right out in front of a car.

    I guess its just me, Im not a person that likes to see a sports car being driven like a volvo. Im not one to go buck wild and just pull out in front of somebody, but I know how to get it out in traffic.

    This is an easy one.

    Obviously you have never driven one nor gone for a ride in one nor owned a vette.

    I hear ya! You know what else i'm sick of? I'm sick of seeing trucks (like your's, an S10 Extreme) that are not hauling anything! Why get a truck if you aren't going to haul anything!!! They want to drive them around without a washing machine in the bed and act like they are a damn honda! It's a disgrace!

    Now if you will excuse me, i'm going to hop in my vette and go out and be stupid now. Maybe i'll break something expensive or get a ticket. I'll be sure to post about it on here to let you know i'm driving my car up to your standards now.

    It says under your name "Future T/A Owner". Hopefully it's a long time in the future. Give you a little more time to grow up so you won't kill yourself or other people. Anyone that comes onto a messageboard bitching about corvette owners not driving aggressive enough for you has some serious maturity issues.

    If I owned a Vette I would race the shit out of it.

    When you know you've got the fastest stock car on the street, and your shit costs 15-30k more than every one elses shit, you drive it slow. because you know you're gonna win, you know you're gonna pull the pussy, so why drive so fast.

    you wanna make sure EVERYONE gets to see your investment.

    if i ever get a bentley, i'm gonna come to Pensacola, and drive slow. just for you.
