I'm actually starting to think the tC is one of the most hated cars out there. People always seem to want to pick a traffic fight with me. Hope people don't hate on 135i's cause that's my next car.

Here I am in my Black Cherry Pearl tc on a bloody great summer day waiting at a stop light. Looking out my left window, enjoying the scenery, looking at some birds, when all of the sudden, an old, beat up red Honda Civic flies by to get on the highway. The punk a$$ kid who's driving the dang thing gives me the finger! What the heck did I do to deserve that? The only thing I could do is give the finger and smile back.

When I first bought my 05 tc, It was like an everyday experience to have some complete stranger to rev his engine or give me the "let's race" look. I can understand that it was a fairly new car at the time and people want to see what it can do. Most of time, I just shrug it off, but many times I couldn't resist.

As for the gun issue, I own a gun but will never have it in my car. Unless It needs to be transported. I use it for home protection and thats it. And for you fellows who do carry one in their car, I hope it is not consealed. Then there is problems with cops.

Exactly if you point your gun at someone you better shoot.

Here in Phoenix you don't have much of a choice but to carry a gun with you. Here there are a hell of alot of car jackings. Besides that, the road rage here is insane. Someone thinks you cut them off and they'll pull a gun and try to shoot you.

Not too long ago we had an incident that involed a mexican and white guy. The mexican guy stopped in the middle of a major street and got out of his car to go to an ice cream truck to buy something. The white guy was sittin there honking tryin to get him to move and the mexican guy came out with his 9mm and tried to shoot the white guy. The white guy pulled out his 44 magnum and blasted the mexican before he got another shot off. THATS JUSTICE!

In Europe, when somebody flashes headlights from oncoming traffic, there is a cop up ahead. Some Europeans do that here too. Rare though.
