just ignore them, they just jealous. just think that if you put your right foot down you could obliterate them, but why do you have to prove anything with a car like that

My missus drives our wagon everyday on the skool run, she gets heads turning all the time but her moto is "i can afford to own and run a scooby so i will".

Dont let it bother you just enjoy driving it and worry about lesser people later when there in the rear view mirror.

If I buy your car am I guaranteed to get members of the opposite sex coming in to me all the time?

How about a sale or return deal if it doesn't happen?

There's something odd about that car, it looks like a non turbo with a go faster scoop and rear wing. The brakes look inadequate lol.

you guys are kind of proving her point a bit, you can't even see her and yet you're still giving her hassle just because she's a woman driving an impreza. I know you're comments aren't meant like that, but she might just see it as more testosterone-filled blokes doing the same as what she mentions at the beginning of this.

To be honest I wouldn't let it get to you Helen.
As has been said. It's most likely due to the fact they like your car or you.

Why let that bother you owning such a nice looking car? Which it is.

To be honest ***** getting up to your bumper when driving can be part of ownership sadly as everyone else wants to prove a point becuase the Impreza is such an icon on the roads to other users etc.
But then so could Mrs Bloggs in a nice Mini Cooper S etc. You can't change ***** out on public roads.

My misses drives my car now and then with the kids in the back. She said a BMW driver once got up to the rear bumper in a 40 mph so she switched the anti lag on and they soon backed off.

Don't let it get to you. Just enjoy owning the car mate.

Steve

imo the only real way to sort this is to post a pic of yourself too, that way we can all tell you whether it is you that's attracting the attention or whether it's the car. We could even do a poll on it

Get it sold!

If you are genuinely considering selling the car and the only reason is because you dont like attention from other people you are driving the wrong car. Scoobys always attract attention (unfortunately good and bad) and since most performance car enthusiasts are blokes they are bound to notice a good looking lady driving a great car.

If you like driving performance cars but dont want attention you might be better buying something a little more anonymous, then you can have your fun without others noticing.

that is by far the best thing i have read today!

on the subject of the attention, it comes with the car, just ignore it or take it as a compliment. dont let it ruin something if your enjoy the car that much!
