i say if you don't like getting revved on then sell your car and get something less conspicuos. if not just smile and be on your merry way, of course unless you have something to prove like how big your man hood is. I actually find it flattering and quite funny at times watching people rev.

i used to get bent out of shape- and sometimes i get tested... lately i have found a new way of displacing the urge to get upset. for instance- one day a driver was tail-gating me... immediately i pushed my washer fluid button and held it for about 1 minute straight until i seen the driver forced to turn his/her wipers on. so, i basically diffuse a situation by making it funny- at least for me. 
now if they were never behind you this method does not apply- but hey, maybe just wash your windows anyway

Hey skip I had one behind me yesterday tailgating me on dairy road , I kept going speed limit , and when he got closer to my bumper I drove slower . He must of been amazed because I refused to speed up . The tow truck finally pull around gassing-up his motor to pass me , I just chuckled to myself and let him pass . Amusing day , getting called out by a tow truck .

i'm down with 4080WRX, if you don't like getting called out, buy a damn minivan!!!!!! stop being so damn snobbish, ( south park) i bet a few of you guys enjoy the smell of your own sh*t!!!! you bought the car, you know what you were getting into, so deal with it...

True , it's a sport car and occasionally other car's do like to test you . It comes with the territory , I also sometimes get annoyed , but majority of times I laugh it off , getting stressed isn't good for you . Just have good laugh it helps , and enjoy your car . P.S. I like the big scoop and wing ..................
