I don't think Lotuses are exotic cars. I think they are good pure sports cars for the enthusiasts, but I seriously do NOT see it as some sort of pricey exotic to show off any form of "wealth". Let's face it, they are not even that expensive (all below $100k) -- most of the "average" luxury cars on the street are worth way more than the Lotuses, especially in LA where you see more Bentleys than Hyundais.
Well, I began to feel some "hatred" from people lately. I don't know whether it's the bad economy, but I got yelled at twice in one week. I was driving very normally, so I know it's not due to my driving, but the car.
Last Tuesday, I was driving around in Culver City, and one guy driving next to me in a Camry yelled "people like you ______ me!" (I quite didnd't understand the blank part, but I don't it was something nice.
Yesterday, as I was driving on EB/I-10 & 110, near downtown LA, a guy in a truck passed by me going, "f**k you!"
What the heck is going on? It never happened to me before. Seriously, both times, there were tons of other cars on the road that are priced 2x+ of my Lotus.
