...NOTHING!

So I'm waiting at a light when I spot a yellow Ferrari 360 Spider. It turns left onto the street I'm on waiting to go at the red. Then I see it haul ***... So I think "Oooooooo.... LUNCH!"

Luckily, the light turns green almost immediately, so I book it up the street to catch up to him. Well, I caught up and he immediately slows way down (maybe because he saw me coming up way fast) and I thought he was maybe willing to do a run. As I come up on his right I'd already slowed down so I could line up with him, and he makes a hard left s-turn into the left hand turn lane... No warning, perhaps he just didn't want to run me. Fine.

Then I roll down my window and he looks at me and I say "Nice car!"

He doesn't even acknowledge me. He just turns his head back forward and ignores me.

What a f*cking douche bag.

EDIT: By the way, he looked like douche bag too.

I recently had a similar situation with a Ferrari but could not tell what model it was cause he pulled up beside me & mashed it, SO I couldn't resist & I hit second & smoked his delicate lil *** for the next 1/2 to 3/4 mile, then he turned off like he was looking for that street. Probably had to clean the **** out of his pants. And, yes, I have a 2001

Jeez- Maybe Ferrari guy needs to lighten up (and yes that means you too wildwall). I mean if this guy looked like he belonged in a vw bug, then maybe it is a good thing he didnt pay attention to you.

lol.

I would probably ignore you also until you said nice car. I would say thanks. Maybe he thought you were the douche for driving like an ***.

Can he not goose the throttle and not want to race you? Just cause my car has loud exhaust doesn't mean im looking to race everyone and everything.

Ya, I was trying to read those rules but when I hit 3rd they flew out the window. Maybe that's why he turned off, he thought I was a litter bug. Here I thought I had some Bad *** car.

No he turned off because you own an 01 and not an 02. He knows he can easily take the 02s but the 01s are in a whole new league.

every car community gets poorly represented, we also get poorly represented whenever people with our cars talk down to people who want to modify civics and what not by calling them ricers, etc.
