Since we're sharing, I get waves from 350z's. I have no real reason not to wave back. I also get waves and even comments from Nissan fans. Had an older gentleman in a Nissan Murano chat me up briefly at a stoplight.
370z stock drivers come in two forms. Those of us on here that are interested in cars, but either don't or haven't yet modded them. They wave and look around. Then the people who aren't necessarily car enthusiasts; they just wanted the car and got it, and it's kinda strange for them to wave at someone else who has the same car; or even notice. And it's probably worse when a clearly modded Z rolls up; they probably think you want to race or show off or are some kiddouche, so why bother even looking? (I've done it. I do it to Mustangs unless they're not driving like a douche and have a 5.0 or Boss. Otherwise . Double-so for any Thunderbirds. I can't see that car without seeing the Mon Calamari Rebel ship from Star Wars in my head. And everyone who drives it seems to be a kid or still living life like they're still the sh!t from high school, 20 years later.)
Anyway, I'll always crane my neck for fellow 370Zs on the road. But my DD Eclipse? Don't make eye contact!
