To wave or not to wave....
In the two weeks that I have had my Z, I have not seen another 370. I have however seen many 350's and even a 280zx. Every time I give a little wave. Not once has it been reciprocated. You could argue that maybe they didn't see me but some were looking directly at me.
I remember, as a kid, when driving with my father in his 1970 240z, every other z we passed would wave. (That's my dad racing his 240z back in 1975 in my avatar) So if you happen to be driving around Indianapolis and you see someone in a Monterey Blue 370Z give you a wave, throw one back. |

I wave at all Z's. It's the way of the Z enthusiast, especially if they appreciate the history of the car.

i've found that alot of 350 owners are haters, they usually dont wave back.

I always give a wave or a nod to a 350 roadster. Today was actually the first time I saw another 370. It was a coupe, but I still felt a strange connection.

I never once thought to wave to another 350 or 370z only because I keep to myself when driving. I only look around to make sure nobody decides to side swipe me. That being said there's another yellow 370z Sport and a MB 370z Sport I see hanging around the Coral Springs, Fl area. I wonder if they are members here sometimes.

i typically only wave back when they car is not stock. got tired at waving at every Z i saw and would get a stare, around here any Z enthusiast will have some sort of small mod so it's relatively easy to identify with the trained eye.

No couldn't be him. We're talking Z's not RX-7's.
