We Torino guys aren't much better than Mustang people.
I think the weirdest people I've ever met if I was to prejudice people by their cars... Buick fans. Friend of mine in college had one with a 3800 supercharged... car was quick, he came iwth me to the drag strip one night even. Thye just feel like they have something to prove. Another time I was at a cruise in and some guy walks up and starts talking about how fast his '64 Buick was, how it had 400,000 miles on an original engine, had gone through 3 sets of keys, 4 timing chains, how it would run 140 mph, got him in jail... the car wasn't there at teh show. HE then starts talking to me nad a friend of mine who is actually 2 years younger than me who has a' 74 Nova about how much better his car is than ours because i'ts all original. He literally said to me "Have you had your car since it was new?" I almost started to give him the straight answer, then I looked at him and said, "Do I LOOK like I've had this car since it was new?????" Like 4 people fall out laughing at the guy then.... but he doesn't miss a beat, goes on and on about how he knows everything about his car and I do'nt know what mine has been through. I told him I've had the car down to a hull and a I have a pretty solid idea actually. Then he hesitated.... and kept going. A firend of mine in high school had a Buick Century in high school and thought it was the greatest thing ever. He was partially joking, partially serious about that too. He ended up with A Honda Civic and then a Mustang GT now.
Common trend in both of these guys were how they had to talk about how great Buicks are, and complain about why no one cares.
Later that night, some '64 Buick blew past me in reverse while I was going down the highway.... no idea what that was about.

The V6 Mustang guys are TERRIBLE people in general though!!! The GT guys are good, the SVT Cobra and Shelby guys are usually pretty cool to talk cars with. However, the V6 guys all piggy back on the V8 and Cobra cars and how fast they are... never talking about how slow the V6 counterpart is. I guess if I follwo this logic, I can brag about how fast the Monte Carlo's were on the NASCAR track in 2000-2005, right?

Well ,the Monte Carlo is faster than its V6 Mustang counterparts and Dodge Stratus (which was compared to the Monte Carlo back in the day... dont' know why.....), and I can personally attest to knowing this from experience

i agree with the Mustang statement. every Mustang/Ford owner i have ever know has been completely insane. i mean, i like em and all. but some people are totally obsessed.
the happiest day of my life was when i smoked a GT on the highway... in my v6 front drive Chevy.
as far as Mopar owners go... no comment. lol. iv always been a Mopar fan. ofcourse, i like Fords and Chevys too, but Dodge has always been my favorite. i like Chevrolets a lot more now that i drive one though. lol
ricers are pretty annoying too

Everyone who is saying hte Mustang gang is the worst... how many of you guys have met a Buick enthusiast? They're a small group, hard to come by. In my experience, you don't find them... they find you.
