Commodore Driver Attitude

[teejay]

Brickie labourer makes more then youd think

I know two

One drives a brand new Maloo

the other a 33 GTR

Pretty retarded stereotype if you ask me.

[342Four]

yeah the brickies labour stereotype is old

brickies labs earn around $750+ a week

brickies earn $2 per brick - which is shit loads when u think about it

cant remember who said it but an idiot is always an idiot no matter what car u put them in

[ossie_21]

The only "really bad" driving I've seen from a commo was a VK that must have had next to no tread on his tyres, some dude who must have been over 30 & his mate were "trying" to show off to a p-plate chick in a Liberty, driving like a tool so I came up behind him, he takes off & gets to about 100 & starts losing the rear end so he backed off.

Then at the lights at ocean reef heading onto the freeway was next to the liberty again, decided to get his tail out towards her, an absolute tool & he nearly hit her car.

Freeway = chopped, me & her. Apart from that I haven't seen anything bad, just a few dudes recently who don't realise I've got 350 lurking under the bonnet when they move towards me & away again driving alongside me.......

Where is Hepburn one lane?

east of wanneroo road

commodore-commonwhore

they are as common as cars get in Aus and so they want to stand out

but they're heavy and have shit suspension and non LS Diffs so hanging it sideways in a commodore quite offten quickly turns to crap

yer commodore drivers could say much the same about skyline drivers being morons when they drive

people will hoon and do stupid shit like that no matter wat they're driving.... its just that commodores are commonwhores and are pretty cheap to buy.. you see just as much shit with people in falcons

true, but there is just something about the commonwhore driver that irks every skyline driver

but also there is something about falcons - maybe im just sympathetic to them

(i just want my old man to buy a territory turbo ghia when they come out - mmmmm very nice )

[Topaz]

Which is why, as another generalisation of the stereotype they are called Falcodores

[MspecR33]

lol

but seriously, i see more dickheads in holdens than fords

[Kaido_RR]

its not the car but the driver.

i just witness 2 dickheads. one was in a wrx and the other in an mr2.

the wrx comes flying past me at i say 140+ then an mr2 catchs up to the wrx and they drag off at the lights.. all out 1st,2nd and 3rd gear no stop....

atlest 140Km/hr+ in a 70zone on DD very smart ...

Welcome to the world of dickheads. Put a dickhead in anycar, and he'll think it's a Ferarri/Porsche/Lambo. Then again, even dickheads drive enzos. http://www.wreckedexotics.com/special/enzo/.

But i don't know if anyone will agree with me... but sometime or another, we do have to go through the dickhead stage of driving. I was there once, untill ermmm.... See below.....

[342Four]

ouch

how did u do that in a rav4??

[KeeFy]

Being young and dumb, i thought i was the best estimater in the world... so when i saw space to cut left...albeit small, but there was space... and no way the lorry could accelerate fast enough.... i cut in ... and my spare wheel scraped a lorry on the highway at 70km/hr and i went into the railings. I heard the lorry drop gear to accelerate when i signaled and he didn't bother to stop after the accident, he just ran away. Too much in shock to get the lisc plate number. 20grand worth of repairs. This happened back home. Oh wells. I almost never speed on public roads, can't afford a fine. LoL

P/s: Pple back home drive like that. If u signal, 80% of the time they'll speed up to prevent u from cutting. It's a bitch.

Unfortunetly i have to totally agree, commo drivers think they are the ducks nuts, i see so many como drivers thinking they are hot shit when they aren't, there inpatient, cocky and just total no alls, como's are so much better then turbos evryone, so what are we doing better go buy one...... and when they pass a turbo car (yes not just skylines) they think that they have to prove a point or something when we are just simply minding our own business...... don't know how many times i've driven normal and had a cocky como driver pull up or fly pass, it's apthetic, and seriously you'll see more como drivers thinking they are cocky toward a turbo, before you'd see a turbo snobbing off the como and being cocky, (but that's probably because they're no compettion) i'd just like to see some justice, so pay back, so whipping ass of these como drivers, and yes put any driver in any car and they can be dicks, but notice how it's alot more como drivers everyday, i don't think they could drive normal for five minutes even if some brickie paid them......

and correct me if i'm wrong but people saying when they saw cocky como drivers, were you doing anything cocky, cause no doubt you weren't and they just had to have the spot light on them while they made complete dicks out of themselves....

[rev210]

I used to drive commondoors, V8 ones. I didn't have this 'attitude'. The 'attitude' belongs to the person behind the wheel. This 'attitude' in my opinion is definately more common to skyline owners these days than it was. The half a dozen idiot R33 skyline drivers who go through the round about next to my place every day at twice the speed limit reminds me of this fact. Oh and then theres the plentiful supply of wrecked insurance auction skylines that come up every week.

time for us skyline owners 'to get over ourselves' before we become the arrogent stuck up fools we pretend we aren't.

[MspecR33]

na, its commodores, more numerous idiots than in any other vehicle

[Rhianne]

skyline drivers arent the best drivers in the world either, the only reason why u probably notice the commodore drivers more is cos they r one of the most bought cars in aus so there is an absolute shitload of them and fords in comparison to other cars, and also most of the older commodores are more affordable to young kids for their first car and to people who dont have alot of money.

i think its pathetic everyone is having a whinge about a particular type of car/people who drive that car. like its been said a few times in this thread, bad drivers come in all different makes of cars.

i drive a commodore/calais and i have no idea what you're on about...

i reacon the turbo cars vs ford/holden arguements are just rediculous. ive seen so many of the arguements and they all get no where.

example: say we look at people under 25 driving either an import or a commodore... id say the percentage of tools driving either is the same... its just that theres more commodores than imports and thats why you may see more commodore drivers being tools

ps i laughed when i read this.....

I had my licence for 1 months when i went through a light doing 90km in a 60km zone

I see your point & agree, but I personally posted in this thread because when I am driving, it's not the speeding dickheads I'm referring too, it's the fact that 90% of the time someone in a commodore will drive like a tool around me, trying to prove, erm, somehow, he has a better car than me. Not bad, considering it's mostly stock as cars doing it.

My car has more than enough power to chop all of them, but I don't need to go out every day & prove it.

[rev210]

Wow I'm now totally converted to this idea with the powerfull and well reasoned arguments put forward by the brighter stars amongst us on the forum. Lets judge people by what car they drive, it makes so much sense to me now.

Lets start every conversation with " do you drive a commodore?" followed by " does any blood relative drive one?"(you never know they might be genetically infected with stupidity).

I know I'm infected since I have driven commodores, stupid is my new middle name!.....But, hang on I'm driving a skyline...... Wait a minute thats how it all works then a skyline driver is the progression of the commodore driver and hence is even more stupid since the disease has had greater time to effect them, it even seems to add denial to the symptoms!
