Is it the numbers of Z owners in GTA is getting low or the passion of Z owners is getting cold....... :confused:

I got more thumbs up by other drivers than Z drivers....

One time I waved to a Z driver and his reaction was like :icon14: "are you trying to rob me......?? :icon14:"

Feels like the Z owners in GTA don't have that Z-spirit.... too bad.......

LMBmikeZ 06-05-2012 08:22 AM

Alcheng - :iagree: even in my area I get the same kinda reactions! It's weak to think people are to up tight to even give a simple wave/thumbs up/peace sign what ever you want to do!

All this year I was thinking the same thing until this past weekend I saw an older (older then me sorry if offending you) guy in a 40th, right on the first main street turning out of my neighbourhood and he was only the second person in my area this year to actually beat me to the wave and give me one! Most times I do it and get a late reaction from drivers if any! This gave me a little hope that there was actually people who still want to be part of the Z community!

I don't see too many 370s out on my drives but heck, I wave to 350s all the time. It's like waving to my uncle a the casino.

What colour Z did you wave at that time?

A gray coupe in DT area.

I've actually seen about 5 -10 already, but none of them really notice there's a Z beside them. :ugh2:

I wave to all the Z's, I actually find more of the other z's ( 240z-350z owners) are more active with the "wave"

ShinyBlueZ 06-05-2012 05:23 PM

When I see another Z.. I nod, then wave, then high beam, then chase them down and then buy them a medium DQ chocolate dipped cone.

All the guys I've encountered so far just give me a blank look and drive off though. I think they're intimidated by my handsomeness.

Where do you usually hang around?? I would love a DQ :yum: :yum:

Dizzy 06-05-2012 05:42 PM

Since I put mine on the road at the end of April, I've yet to see another 370. I have seen 5 or 6 GTR's though.

That's sweet though! My year is more of the opposite, I have seen 4 or 5 Z's and one Gtr. Saw another Gtr another day but was in the wife's car lol. I always love the Gtr and would love to get one some day........when I win the lotto:happydance:

alcheng 06-05-2012 09:33 PM

mmm…… time to setup the next meet, and make sure ShinyBlueZ is going cos we all want some DQ… :yum: :yum:

:bowrofl: :bowrofl:

ShinyBlueZ 06-05-2012 09:48 PM

I knew this would happen.. that's why I specifically said 'medium' cone.. the larges are like $5 each :shakes head: I can barely put premium in my tank.

I'm all over the place.. I dunno how you guys don't see me often. I go downtown, oakville, etobicoke, mississauga, markham, vaughan.. my Z's blue beauty just radiates all over Ontario.

Ive been in Milton at least 3 times this year!

Dizzy 06-08-2012 06:03 PM

Cool! I saw a car identical to mine just a short ways from my house. The odd part, I live out in the country, in the middle of nowhere. When I saw the white 370 coming the other way, I actually checked the plates to see if someone had stolen mine! Pretty rare to see that car out in the country and that close to my house. I was in my SUV so I didn't get the pleasure of acknowledgement!

So, Westbound on the 20th sideroad, you turned north on the 4th line of Nassagaweya at 5:00pm. Anyone here?

Da.Menace 06-12-2012 06:04 PM

Just saw a blonde girl driving a silver Z on 16th and Warden :) Anyone here?

Dizzy 06-13-2012 05:16 PM

Today at 3:30, 407 Westbound at Dundas. Blue 370. I was in the Eastbound Lanes.

Paskii 06-14-2012 09:27 AM

Saw a black one going to WalMart by Markville Mall.

Dizzy 06-14-2012 01:21 PM

Grey, eastbound QEW at Dorval - 12:50 today.

i was there last week but i went around the back to the foodcourt. there should be a special 370Z nod of approval. it could well have been me as im often around hwy7

Dizzy 06-20-2012 08:11 PM

2 today....Black parked at the Waterloo Airport by the flying club at 11:00 ish and White Eastbound on Rossland Road at Stevenson in Oshawa around 4:30.

ShinyBlueZ 06-24-2012 06:52 PM

Saw one today downtown, around when the soccer game ended (5ish?).. going down Bloor, making a left turn. It was white and looked cooler than a Porsche. Unfortunately I was in a Pontiac and couldn't wave. It wasn't worthy.

Da.Menace 07-03-2012 07:20 PM

Spotted a white sport pkg Z with black vinyl roof on Warden and 14th heading north at 7:30PM

ShinyBlueZ 07-03-2012 07:54 PM

Saw one yesterday afternoon at Square One. It was a blue roadster. Not anyone from here I think. I left a note on the windshield informing him that blue Z's rule all. :icon18:

chillz 07-04-2012 04:38 PM

Saw a red one on 427 northbound around 9:00 this morning.

N0SL3N 07-04-2012 05:26 PM

Saw a white sport pkg heading eastbound on the 403/407 (I forget which) around 9:15 am.

alcheng 07-05-2012 10:35 AM

A Blue coupe on Bayview/Sheppard around 10:40am, on Sheppard turning left onto northbound Bayview, anyone??

Dizzy 07-11-2012 08:12 AM

Blue Sport Coupe on Dixie Rd Northbound, just south of the 401, 2pm Tuesday.

ShinyBlueZ 07-11-2012 09:10 AM

Dizzy that was me! FINALLY! RECOGNITION!!! Yessssssssssssss. :tup:

Wasn't it super shiny and awesome?!? :D

Dizzy 07-11-2012 11:30 AM

Woo Hoo! Finally spotted a forum member! Yup - shiny shiny! You were a little too preoccupied navigating the construction though to notice the driver waving from the southbound White Z! :driving:

ShinyBlueZ 07-11-2012 11:55 AM

lol you know what I was doing? staring at the ground trying to see individual pebbles/sharp rocks and dodging each stone haha I was so annoyed at that point with the construction. was sitting in the traffic for 10/15 mins by that point.

I usually always notice fellow Z owners! a few 350's around here but only 1 other 370.. black. I'll spot you next time though. AWESOME! :tup:

alcheng 07-11-2012 02:18 PM

Yesterday i was going south on Bathurst and i am pretty sure i saw Sam turning north on bathurst at one of the intersections. I did flash my highbeams and you should've heard my new exhaust too so i dont know if you saw me as well.

I think I saw the same white Z you spot... but at a sad scene.....

I was on 401 eastbound tonight at 230am and passing Bayview... there was a HUGH puddle of water on almost the whole right lane... cop was at scene blinking... one sedan slided backward on the shoulder.... then I saw a white Z coupe 'dead' on the 2nd right lane... no light no nothing.... I hope the driver and the Z is ok....

So far no one spot mine... hahaaa

The vacation was nice, I came back early because of work, rest of the group go to Berlin for 3 more days.

Weather was a quite cold and rainy in Norway during this visit.

Tons of VW, Volvo there.... quite a bit of Leaf… but no Z... not at all..... I think mainly because the long & cold Winter over there. :ugh2:

did you just say that! JK I know your just looking out to see each other!

If given the choice I would always park my car inside! mine is in storage 6 months of the year nov 1st- may 1st approx and I would love to have a garage to help keep it cleaner.......I guess that's why I am looking at moving in the fall/over the winter.
