Default Is it Just Me or What?

Do you guys run across this very much. I was getting gas this morning when a 350z roadster pulled in to get some gas also. When the guy got out he didn't even look my way even though the cars weren't 3 feet from each other. Finally i said nice car i've always liked the look of the roadster's.
And he looks at me and says thanks me too. and that was it. not kiss my xxs
or anything else. am i making to much of this? there must be some friendly z drivers somewhere. this forum is proof there out there...........

didn't mean to ramble sorry

maybe he's not a morning person -- my ex-boss was like that, not talkative in the morning but by the afternoon, he would be alright

I owned a couple vettes, and NOT waving was mortal sin (save the wave!).

But yeah, most 350 owners seem to have this "too cool for school" attitude.

I even had similar experiences while I was driving my 350 and came across another 350 driver. But then again a car doesn't make someone an a$$hole, so he probably was one with or without the car.

The 350s here on base are all driven by old people or women. They don't give the light of day!

Some people just aren't "car" people.

When I had my Z I pulled up to a pump right behind a silver NISMO 350. I said "nice car" to the guy and he said, "whatever" and turned away. Oh well.
