I was in my parking garage pulling up to the exit gate looking for my exit pass and a guy in a black Blazer pulls up in the exit stall to my right. He had an RFID pass and the gate automatically opened when he pulled near. So, he could have driven straight through but instead he stops next to me, lowers his window, looks at me, spits on the ground and then pulls out. One of the more bizarre things I've seen and the reason why I park in an inconspicuous area of the garage now.
The second bizarre behavior I experienced was on I-94 E just north of Chicago. Center lane, not speeding, lifted Silverado bro-dozer passes me on the left and then slows when his liftgate is alongside my door. He floors it, sh!tting soot from his side pipe completely blinding me then he pulls in front of me with his smoke screen. That pissed me off but no harm really. So, I just continue on. Then he slows down AND DOES IT AGAIN!!! I floored it after I realized that he was going to do it again and didn't stop until he was a spec in the mirror. What a turd burgler.

This is new behavior in most parts of the US in the last 10 years or so. Not good.

Those are some pretty bad experiences and luckily I've not encountered any. Once a guy with a family in a Subaru wagon just had to be in front of me no matter what speed I drove; frustrating since I had the cruise on and he kept passing which I don't mind but would then slow down. I'd jump on it and take off and then 10 minutes later he was back and I thought want a d-bag to drive like that with kids in the car. Annoying but not the same as what has been posted. I typically find that people exit the left lane pronto when I approach and let me through.

I believe it's called 'rolling coal' which is tremendously annoying. It's happened to me a few times in the 997, but I have a coupe so it's relatively easy to ignore. But when I had my S2000, I drove top down as much as possible and it was more annoying when it happened.

Not all Porsche drivers are all courteous to their fellow drivers either, had a Cayenne cut from a dead stop in left turn lane to overpass me. Turbo convertible saw the car making a left and proceeded to run up my rear at about 100. Boxster on PCH trying to overtake anything moving.

Only going to get worse. 8 years of our dear leader beating the income inequality drum, Hilary and Bernie raising the bar. Money is only good if they control it. Is anyone here not paying their "fair share". The fish rots from the head down. Not jumping for joy over the alternative but elections have consequences, vote accordingly or we'll end up as a 2 tier system, just like Europe. Ask the people of Greece how that's working out.

Should I take a dump in the morning or in the afternoon??

We all have political opinions on one side of the fence or the other. Let's not let an automotive forum thread degenerate into a political discussion. There is a section in OT dedicated to that nonsense.

Where I live Porsches are pretty common and I've had mostly good experiences. Occasionally some guy, usually in a truck, refuses to let me pass. Whatever... I'll find a window of opportunity at some point. Occasionally, some kid in a Honda with a coffee can "free Flow" muffler cuts me off and slams on the brakes. It's unfortunate that civility is eroding but I try and get away from the situation as safely as I can and then come here to RL and rant about it. I'd say the most common issue is trucks doing an improper Mirror / Signal / Look and kind of skipping a few steps and almost changing lanes into me. Of coarse, the music is so loud inside their vehicle they don't hear the horn so I put my awesome 911 brakes to good use and then zoom around them when safe.

I get nothing but compliments and thumbs up. The guys that fit all the bro stereotypes signal me to lower my window a lot and usually say something nice, and many say, "Nice wing, etc". I have no problem unless it's a guy in a crossover SUV or minivan. For the love of god, they are willing to die to prove something.
For some reason though, the hammerheads you guys talk about tend to approve of the more aggressive look of the aerokit.
Go figure.
