Does the way other drivers react to you and your Z depend on your age?

I'm 20 years old and I get a mixture... I think part of it is a) I have a baby face, and I'm sure at a glance that I'm often taken as a 16 year old driver b) at a glance, my car looks new to those who don't know any better

When in reality I'm a 20 year old sophomore in college with a car that cost less than a new civic... (03 w/ 65k miles)

I get a lot of compliments, as well as angry glares (generally from middle-aged men in nice luxury cars)

Well, i'm 18 and get a mixture as well. My friends and people that know me always give GOOD comments. I get asked "how do you afford your car?" and "how much did you have to pay for that?!" a lot. I guess it isn't expected for someone my age to have a Z. (Girls love it)

I do get plenty of tailgaters, fly-bys, and dirty looks but you know that's expected. I'm not going to lie, when i have the occasional cobalt, honda, or whatever else messing we me, i dont mind letting her fly to make them look like a fool...but that's just a guys competitive side. Other than that, i just brush the haters off.

All in all, compliments > hate haha

Mokes, by definition, are meathead jackass idiots. Don't let them get to you.
