Here in LA, Corvettes and Ferraris usually have no desire to race, and their drivers love to say hello and be very complimentary. The real jerks are the ones whom drive Porsches and BMW's especially M5's and, even more so, M3's. There is a general attitude here in LA by those drivers that they truly drive the "ultimate, finest, fastest, best engineered" cars on the planet, and they just love to put those drivers of "American junk" in their place. I used to get the same attitude from them when I owned Vettes, including my Z06. It is just so interesting to look at the driver of a Porsche and/or BMW and, more time then not, see them scowl at Vette and Viper drivers. In 7 weeks of owernship of my 04 SRT10, I have smoked every German car that wanted to play. And, I must say, I quite enjoyed it!
