Re: From a different perspective
My experience is similar, Guenter. I'm routinely getting thumbs up from a whole range of people - kids on on bikes, teens, 20 year oldsomethings, and elegant older ladies sitting with their dog on a park bubench.

Yes, I've experienced my share of jackasses, often in beat-up cars with 'handles' on the back (nasty big spoilers) for whom the mere presence of my car prompts them to want to race. I ignore them, and if they are unrelenting, I'll actually take an exit just to get clear of them.

If it's someone who wants to go faster, he can fill his boots. If it's someone who thinks his car will keep up with mine in the twisties, he's going to be sorely disappointed after about the third turn. :)
