Works very well most of the time here in Europe. If you drive a car that has a aggressive front end (like a M3/M4, M5, RS6 etc), people tend to move over and let you pass. Just because the car looks aggressive and signals that I want to drive faster than you

Unfortunately that exact same look/presence seems to have the opposite effect where you drive...
When I had my 2013 Shelby GT500, people almost always got the heck out of my way when they saw me in their rear mirror. That gaping snout helped. Pretty much the same for my husband's Boss 302.
