Plenty encounters with 350z, fart can civics, Evos/WRX, newer 5.0's and camaros, str8 pipe GTO....so far they pretty much just leave me alone. 350z guys won't even look at me at stop lights. I'm jealous that yall get dirty looks and rev'd at.

Suki never asked to pop my clutch either.

I feel like I got cheated out of the real 370z experience

I have been a 370Z owner for one week, lot of guys I work with have stangs, chargers, couple of porsches, and even one maserati. They all seem to be respectable but I'm in SoCal and people don't hate too much here. Besides my car is cooler ;).

The ones I get the problems from are overzealous women in their A5's, and your typical bimmer 325 owner that thinks flooring his automatic at every stoplight maks him Roger Penske's nephew. Have noticed some revving and tailing from the scion/eclipse "look at my green wheelz" -or as CV129 so eloquently put it" fart cans"(lmao) type of kids.

The biggest problem imo is "Holy Cop Attention Batman". I have been creeped on 2-3 times in the last week by the 5.0 checking my paper dealer tags on the windshield because the rear license plate is just a dealer ad until my real plates get here. Once they see I am white guy in a shirt and tie though they leave me alone @reality.

I live in a small town and the second my car comes out regularly cops "all the sudden" want to plant themselves on my street. Hard to hide a bright white sports car in a small town. Everyone knows where I live.

Had one do the same to me - just the paper on the windshield. I passed him coming up to a light then watched him force his way over to get behind me... luckily he didn't pull me over. Would have made me late for my date (of all nights, whew).

Since then I haven't had any issues, though I try to watch my speed in certain areas. I've gotten lucky a few times that I haven't been pulled over.

my neighbor, a sub 30ish good looking gal is knocking on my window as I'm getting ready to pull out of my parking space a couple nights ago. She says I haven't seen you for awhile (i've only had the car about 7 months now but thats besides the point) she then says and I quote "That bitch is hot!!"

I like her even more now.

:tup: they're just too intimidated by your cars:tup: that has to be it ;)

I dont understand why people feel that they need to speed and drive all crazy once they see a nice car. Its not only with the Z that is see this. if im with any of my friends and they are driving (they have sick cars also) I notice the same thing as I do in the Z. people cut you off, rev their engine at the light, do 90mph fly bys in a 55mph zone.

rAiN 03-07-2013 09:31 PM

just good ole every day tailgate encounters. im just not bothered by that, ill drive my speed limit and hope for lights to turn orange.
