Default V6 BASHERS!

Just thought I'd see what everyone had to say about this:

I was recently parked in the visitors lot at my girlfriends dorm on campus at a private university here in Texas. When we came outside to get in my car to go to lunch, there was a note stuck under my wiper. At first I thought it might have been a note from a friend that i knew, but when I opened it up it said, in big green marker:

"TOO BAD YOUR 'STANGS A V6. COULDNT AFFORD THE GT HUH?...*****!!!!"

Right off, I was pissed. My car still has all the V6 body parts but is all black including rims, lights, blinkers, and on the front there is a sticker that says sinister motorsports which is the "company" that me and my buddy own. So yes its a V6, but i think its a very pretty car and am proud of it. I might not have the money to buy a GT, but you would think people could appreciate a car for what it is and not what other people can afford right?

Tell me what you guys think. I need some encouragement lol

Then that is all you need to worry about. Face it, there will people who bash everything, it happens. Grow a thick skin and move on, because letting a person like that bother you means letting them win.

It's OK....I have the money but I preferred the V6 Pony Package! I bought it brand new and paid cash for it, so let some A-hole say to me, "Too bad your Stang is a V6. couldn't afford a GT Huh?" ...I would blast them a new one!
I find most people who make comments like that drive a Honda Civic anyway!

Jealousy most likely. I doubt it was a mustang guy too. I'd be willing to put money that this *** catcher had a mullet.

i used to have a v6. no shame in it. i know not many will dog on the 2011 v6's cause they'll keep of with most of the factory 2010 below v8's. you'll always have nay sayers. if you got a gt, someone will ask why not a specialty mustang? if you got one of those, why not a factory force inducted one?

there'll be nit pickers, cause everyone has their own tastes... some are just more vocal about theirs though. just enjoy what you have and forget the negative things people say.

Its not that it even gets to me...its just that if they go to this college I KNOW their mom and dad payed for their crap and they are one of the spoiled little frat boys. I mean the least he could have done was left a number (which I think makes him the pu$$y) and then we could have gone an settled it somewhere...maybe civic vs. mustang? lol.

I also dont think it would have been another mustang owner. I get nods from GT's and up all the time. In the DFW area there is a wave (similar to that of the motorcycle riders) between mustang owners, and to get one from a GT, Roush, or maybe a Saleen every now and then is a real treat.

I'd let it roll off your shoulder's dude.. Their are people ON THIS SITE that also make such stupid comments. Let it slide, chalk it up to ignorance....

Hell, somewhere on this forum is a posting where my sexual preference was questioned due to the color of my car. Some people are just a-holes....
