I agree.

People will do it because they want to; because they think you have a nice car that is worth enough to 'take on' their car; because they think they are supposed to.

Just ignore them.

On a side note: I rev. at some cars just so that I can hear the rev or their car. Some sound really nice. I know its all about the import, but... a throaty mustang...sounds nice.

Speaking of reving your engines. My friend Dan and I usually go drive around. Wether its in his F150 or my Civic, we rev our engines on people with Integras, Civics, and other cars. I dont like revving my engne much because its basically stock and it sounds like crap. We just do it to be stupid and I dont ever race because why race when you will lose? Plus its funny when my friend Dan revs on some guy in an Integra and they race and my friend beats him easy. Also just to be even more stupid I cruise around the mall with NOS, VTEC, I got NOS, and powered by honda written on my windows with markers.

Yeah green, your car looks nice. Sometimes I rev at people to be a jack-***, but mostly it's just to say hey, and occasionally to race. Even though there's not many cars out there I could take, with a mostly stock auto. Yeah I find it just a way to say hello or get someone's attention ..
