I wouldn't take things too personally

I'd move on and enjoy the Z

At the end of the day, you have a Z that handles far superior and is far quicker than the mustang and BR-Z can ever dream of. That is, if they're all stock. Don't worry about it!

#1 Don't worry about about what Mustang owners think, it's not an issue.

#2 The Brz guy is wishing he had your car but needed someone who would listen to him whine (see above) and no one with a decent car was listening. (also see above)

Basically the more they comment about your car the more they are complementing you odd as it may sound.

Of course if you have a huge aluminium wing, louder exhaust than a B52 and rims with spinners you may have deserved the comment...

lol, all i have to say is haters gon' hate man...the fact that they acknowledged your car to begin with is proof that they feel the need to make fun of someone elses car cause they arent happy with theirs in some way...and the BR-Z guy, well thats just fail on all sides considering where his car comes from

Looooool.. being called a ricer by a guy with a Mustang I can understand because of that domestic import hate thing... but by a guy with a BRZ? A stock Z would smoke that thing anywhere anytime... Not to mention your car is stock too. What's there to make fun of? People these days
