Do other drivers treat you differently because what you are driving?

I've always driven south-east asian economy cars, so I can't really comment. Although someone offered to trade me crumpets for a newspaper when I was driving my work van the other night.

Firebird: Nobody wants to race, middle aged men are all over me. Cops smile.
Tiburon: Everybody wants to race, girls love the car. Cops are indifferent.
Race Accent: All Hondas want to race, people are usually like "I see what you did there..." but not many actually like it it's more that they respect what's been done. Cops watch/follow me a lot.
Stock Accent: Nobody notices me enough to think about racing, or liking/disliking the car. Cops wouldn't notice if I did a hit and run on their squad car.

I would say yea for the simple fact that my "H" is crooked! But I don't really brag about my car like Honda guys so they always underestimate me untill they see under my hood. Its not much but its no different then what they got so then they know ill give them a run for there money!
