Wtf?

Ok so I'm sitting at the light waiting for the green arrow when I heard someone yelling "hey" "hey" so I looked to my right which was the only other lane and see some highschool kids(no offense to those on this site) in a Toyota Matrix! So I roll down my window to hear what he is asking me! Guess what he asks me? You guessed it, "wanna race?" I'm thinkin to myself, "he's got a toyota matrix(stock) so he will probably win unless he's retarded and do i really want to waste gas and time on these kids? So I decided not to waste my time and gas and risk embarrasment and gave him a queer eye and said "Na man!" I swear I am going to get a big rear window banner and about 10 bumper stickers that say "i am not a ricer or racer so don't bother!" It really is sad that some of us who actually take the time to set our rides apart from the rest of the trash out there still get stereotyped as a ricer or racer! Ohh well at least I know my car will always look better than theirs!

LOL last night some guy in a camaro wouldnt stop driving right next to me. So finally i got a little behind them and then got them to go next to me at a light. I turned left there to get away from the idiots.
I am sick of retards thinking everyone in a civic wants to race it. I need to make a sign saying "Why race, I have a civic?!" and another saying "My DVD player is worth more than your car!"

naw im either at a place im watching my car or its in the garage. also my insurance agents parents made sure that i got everything covered. so if people take stuff that just means I get it all new. I know it sucks, but at least the most expensive stuff i can get again at the cost of the insurance company not me.

not that i want someone to steal it but my HU is starting to get a little old now, so I wouldnt mind getting a new one . Plus its covered for $1500 and its available for like under $950 now. So thats like my emotional damage pay, the $550

If I saw your car on the street I would think that you were into performance and racing. I think the general consensus is that if your car looks performance oriented but isn't, you're a buster. You're car looks great by the way.

if you mean me thanks, but its not kitted or anything. just going for a little oem-ness and a little aftermarket-ness combined well. I gotta change the pics in my gallery now too.
