DRUNK GUY OFFENDED BY MY "COOL CAR" LOL!

So here's my little story...

Saturday night, 12:30am
I was looking for parking in Downtown Royal Oak (a popular bar/club area) to meet some friends. It was a nice warm summer night, so my windows were down, and I was slowly driving down the street looking for parking. I went down 5th Avenue, where there are 2 very popular bars right across from eachother. Long lines to get in each, and many people crossing the street.

I stop at a cross walk to let a group of guys stumble across, and one of the guys starts screaming at my car... It was all drunken gibberish, but what i could make out was "...OH YOU THINK YOU'RE COOL?!?! IN YOUR COOL-@SS CAR?!?! DONT MAKE ME....."

I couldn't help but laugh, as I have never encountered such blatant jealousy and hate like that.
Usually I get all thumbs up, especially here in metro-Detroit. As much as I wanted to mess with the guy, my car is pretty unique looking, and I do not want to encourage vandalism, as I'm pretty easily identifiable around town... So I just laughed and kept driving.

Anyone else ever encounter people like this??

Hater's will always hate. And your right people do remember unique car's and will vandalize them later. I hate idiots like that.

Sounds like he was probably just being stupid -- probably didn't actually hate you.

Showing off for his friends. Nothing more.

Last week there was a drink guy at the DMV trying to get his license reinstated.

YES, he was drink AT THAT MOMENT. Wreaked of alcohol.

I heard a comedian say...

Being sober in a fight with a drunk is the closest you will get to being Neo in the Matrix.

If that guy thinks your car is cool, maybe it isn't.

Maybe none of our Gen 5s are cool...

Damn. What were we thinking?

Sounds like jealousy to me!

I had a drunk guy lecture me that my parents shouldn't have bought a "high school kid" (me) a car this nice....I'm 30 and of course I pay for it myself.

LMAO, I go to Royal Oak all the time during the summer with my Camaro and I get comments by all the drunks crossing Main St. I can relate to you on this one

I have a friend that when he gets drunk, he pees on the nicest vehicle he can find. Whether that be a car, truck, or motorcycle. Oh the people I'm friends with *facepalm*

I was at the drag strip a couple weekends ago racing my guy in his black SS and we had some people holler "there go the rich kids" or something to that effect when we rolled through the pits together.

Haters gonna hate.
