people talk crap about your car?

[the_don]

I just got my car its extremely tiny... but will smoke most cars on the road lol(just what I wanted)
but people keep making comments that are making me want to bash heads..


well this kid at college walked by as I was carefully pulling out to leave and hes comments to his friends look at this badass with his backwards hat(so it wont blow off on the highway dumbfuck).

and I started to park the car and get out to say something since he was a lil feller about 5,4 and I am 6,3 lol


but then I realized that he would just cut the top on my car it fails having a convertible sometimes.

it really doesnt bother me much about little comments but it really does get annoying

I'm speechless...

I find it happens a lot. Either I'm getting lip about my Saturn or I get lip when I borrow the Miata I get lip about that. I get used to and just take it in stride. I know what the cars are capable of and I'm comfortable with what I drive.

I make fun of my Saturn sometimes but it's all in fun when I do it. Calling it tupperware and what not.

I preface my statements with this, since you're new:

1. Use some proper grammar for the love of all that is Holy.

2. A miata is an easy target for ridicule, but so is every other car on the road.

3. Leave your top down and/or don't lock it. It won't get cut (you can disable the center console trunk release for a secure trunk). Will stop thieves, not vandals.

4. Talking about wanting to beat people up for talking shit is LoLz. I'm sure most of the people here have been in a similar situation, but since most don't know you it's hard to put your statement into context.

5. Welcome to MME.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Miata ownership

for the record i didn't make a new user name, nor am i 6'3"... except in the pants

[trickyrix]

First guy that talked shit about my car was a friend of mine, and he got the keys. He tore off through the neighborhood for a good half hour by himself...

Came back with the biggest shit-eating grin on his face I'd ever seen, and that was when the car was still bone-ass-stock... good times.

the_don, get used to it or get another car. Miata's are targets for this kind of stupidity. Life's too short to (1) worry about what other people say, and (2) to get yer knickers in a twist about it.

[jrj512]

Yeah, you should hear what those a$$holes in Porsches have to put up with.

I have owned a Miata for almost 20 years and have heard it all. It does not stop with Miata's as I've been asked how I like my VW. I'm sure most of these comment come from fellows who squat to pee!

Hey I resent that....

[HudsonHawk]

Hey I resemble that....

There, fixed it for you.

I only ever got great comments about the Miata and how it looked. Guess I was lucky.

Now that is pure comedy

All I've ever heard was a guy in a truck say "Zoom Zoom, yeah right". The other was a buddy of mine that always called it cockroach at night with the lights up.

He bought one about 5 years ago though.

I've had my car almost 10 years.
