Are our cars that hard to spot?

Is it just me or does it seem as though when there's a car backing out that they don't see our G35's right behind them...

This has happened to me on two occasions where I have been moving along the flow of traffic (But stopped in a parking lot waiting for my turn for spot) and a larger car just keeps reversing as if there was a homing device on my car!

Once I was lucky enough where EXCESSIVE HONKING caused the guy to stop... but another time I wasn't as the lady kept backing up as I was honking.

ARE WE REALLY that unnoticible? Or do I just so happen to be running into a bunch of bad drivers?

sometimes it's the driver, sometimes it's the distance between two cars where they are so close together that they can't see your headlight or your car when their car is too big, but mostly it's the driver. i had that happened once on the road when this stupid lady backed into my G because she didn't know how to drive and wouldn't turn when it was good to go. she moved forward and had to back up when the light turned red and as a result, backed into my car. i was so mad! lucky there was no damage or else i would have let her have it.

i feel you man. 3 weeks after i got my car, some red neck **** reversed right into my bumper with his gimungus off-road 4x4 truck.. not only that, he took off right after he hit my car. i only got his partial plate... "5EUS".. Cops said they couldn't do nothing with a partial plate.

and today, on the way home, I was almost rear ended 3 times... People speeding and stopping at the very last minute, in heavy traffic. I don't know what the F is wrong with these people... I live in Orange County and traffic is a biotch.

And last week, some mexican lady was in a rush to make a right turn while i was at a complete stop with no where to go. She kept on creeping and creeping probably 1cm way from hitting me. I honked my horn, and she still kept going.. The guy in front of me was lifting his hand up like wtf did I do?

I was about to get out of my car and punch that mexican lady in the face... Anyways, she was in a rush to turn right so she can pull into a 7/11. WTF? Tahat 7/11 ain't going nowhere lady.

here some pics that proves people can't drive worth shlt behind a G.. They either hit it, or come pretty damn close to hitting it for no freaking reason.

WTF hapend here?


Check out the blue car behind me, instead of driving on the clear lane in the middle, she decides to, at the very last minute, cut across right into my rear bumper. what a fuken dumb azz.



She doesn't know that she hit my car. I knew cause it was pretty damn close. So i get out the car and saw this.


Thats right, a very light paint scrape on the corner of my rear bumper. and i can't buff it out for shlt... u cant see it in the paint, but theres also a bunch of "fine" cracks... I guess the clear coat is F'd... Also, there are some indention on the bumper... a little area which is caved in... Got a quote and its gonna be about $150 for a mobile truck to repair it.
