I am minding my own business, driving down my main drag. In front of me (and in the same lane I am in) I see a Mustang GT pulling to the light. Soon after we all come to a stop - the light changes to green, and as soon as he is able, the guy accelerates nearly rear-ending the guy in front of him - as he violently swings the car to the left lane and peels out to get ahead of the car in front of him.

I see this kind of stuff all the time.

Of course it could be a coincidence... but if not, what gives?

I have had several mustangs. I never looked at BMW's. My sights were always set on vettes. They are more comparable rivals!

Mustangs are probably the worst American sports car ever past 1970. I'm not sure why people even buy them? They're uglier than sin, too.

Perhaps they are aware of this and take it personally...

That is hilarious!!! I get "Attacked" all the time by the horsey. My first car was a mustang so I am not a hater. I was just telling my wife that there has to be some underground "fight club" the mustangs have in preparation for BMW's.

There must be some sort of inferiority complex going on there...
