I'm an adult, but on a clear road I often show 'em what I got!
Never, ever in a residential neighbor hood. Never!
My best one was a guy in a new M3 was riding my *** on the way home from an autoX. We got into on the interstate and my na 996 didn't really pull him until about 120. Since I was coming home I had on my Hoosiers - you know where this is going! - as we come off I-95 to my exit this guy blast up on my tail. I guess he's going to try to get some dignity back by showing me his new BMW can handle like a Porche. I drop down into 3rd and ACCELLERATE into the cloverleaf. This guy sticks with me?!??!? All of a sudden I see him drop back fast as his new M3 proceeds to have its drivers side rims reworked by the curb. Felt bad for the guy, hopefully he learned a lesson.
Anyway, a little fun once in a while is good for you. If you really want to show them, invite them to an autoX and smoke em in front of an audience! Just use your head and make sure it is in safe environment.

This clip, one you may've already seen, is from Gumball 3000 and is about 160mb, so it may take about 10min to download.

Have fun, be safe, and get the car on an autocross or technical road racetrack, and enjoy the awesome handling of a Porsche.

I've said some other things to these A-Holes as well. Some idiot in a Mustang comes up to my window while all of his "gansta" friends are watching...I just left Lucent in LA and I was lost in the wrong neighborhood...he says: "What kind of car is that? Let's race...I've got a Cobra." I said, "no thanks". He says: "Let's race for money...my car is faster...why are u afraid, etc..." I just stop him and say: "Wait a second, did u want to race for money?". He says: "Yup". I said: "That's too bad...cause I don't need the money". I took off. He was pissed.
F those *****es.
