haha I found myself next to a Prius with CA plates, heading on I-64w through Indiana ... after I passed him (not furiously in any way), and got back in the right lane, for some reason he started trying to pass me (and get back in front of me)?!
I loved his attempts. Like 6 carlenghts behind me in the left lane, I see the front end of the Prius lift up (as much as it can), he starts to accelerate (from like 80mph), he gets to my rear door, I give it a bit of gas in 5th, no downshift (3 people, full trunk, full tank of gas, ac on ... 80mph is in the heart of 4th gear pull for me) and I start pulling. He kept trying like 3 times. rofl
He then flashed his lights a few times at me as I was getting off at my exit (?!) Did he think we were racing?

are you talking about a 142hp impreza or another car?
thats how cali drivers are. most of them think they need to be in the front...its just like George Lopez said..."i get 75 miles to the gallon, yea well you look like a pouto doing it too..." please forgive me for my Spanish
