Are other drivers more agressive around you when you drive your Z ?

Dude, I live in one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in town. I also noticed this type of attitude when I lived in Memphis, TN 6 years ago.

Hey, I love paying $1,000 a year in PPT on my car...

Every time I paid the painful PPTs of NOVA, I thought about all the baller cars I see on the road, and how much tax revenue that has to bring in. No wonder the police force is moving to Z06 corvettes as cruisers next year.

I get a lot of the opposite.

I'll see someone in a Civic or Celica up ahead zipping in an out of traffic like an idiot but then when I get close, they see me and like instantly calm down, like their big, angry roid rage brother entered the room...

I kinda like that

I do get some who try to egg me on, half I'm sure think they can run and others just want to hear it go and the remainder are thumbs up

Are they using the best bang for buck supercar under $100k, the almighty M3?

Up here in the Northwest, I haven't seen any aggression toward the Z. I had a Prius (ugh!) before, and I get treated the same way (almost) as I did with the Prius. The only difference is that on the interstate, some SUV drivers don't realize I am in the lane to the left of them when they decide to change lanes. I have done way too many evasive manouvers to avoid a crash.
