couple days back I had the shopping cart guys at the IGA (grocery store) compliment me and ask me to do a burn out and leave skid marks in the parking lot....

lol, it was late but i said no.... but I gave them a slight peel out so they could hear the exhaust..saw the grins on their faces in my rear view...i like that stuff.

most people are respectful...and notice me. I will say one thing about the guy commenting he was Asian, I think I get even more looks in the Z cause i'm black lol.

I mean, I've seen this other black dude driving a sick Porsche GT3 and another driving a Austin Martin Vantage around my area but most others are driving old Altima's or G20 sedans with heavy tint and those gold crown air fresheners on the dash lmao

I have noticed people wave, and give the thumbs up to rev their engine, give the thumbs down, pull up next to you speed off, (but not getting very far because they are driving a camry) or just plain and simple give u the ugly look and give u the finger. I had a lady pull up next to me the other day in her late 40s early 50s prolly, and give me the finger....I dont know why but by the way she zoomed off and looked at my car in disgust I was like uhhh...really? :bowrofl: Are people really that much haters....I find it funny, but then when the cops get in on it its not. One cop decided to follow me down a road then he pulled up next to me, gave the glance then shaked his head...then before the light turned green he floored it ( and went no where) but still managed to leave me at the red light confused. Has anyone else experienced this type of behavior since you have gotten a Z, I mean sheesh I know its a nice car and all....but relax people. Also ESPECIALLY other tuners, or muscle cars act the most annoying...sorry mustang lovers but all u mustang pppl (especially the older ones before 2002ish) always try to "race" me, even when im just cruising on the highway. They intentionally tailgate me and then speed off...like im suppost to chase them? :ugh2::bowrofl: I dont mean to intetnionally show off, I can afford it so I drive it. Never had this problem when I had my T-bird....I wonder what has changed.....:roflpuke2: :driving:
OP, I know what you mean and all, as I have had this happen as well. But in your case with the lady giving you the finger, are you sure you didn't accidentally cut her off, or tail gate her, or pass her, etc... or do anything that would warrant her reaction? My point is, she still should not have reacted that way, but I'm saying it may have been possible that you accidentally (not INTENTIONALLY) did something to her that would have made her react that way.

Reason why I say this is some people are just weird that way...... they see you making a perfectly legal lane merge or a legal pass on a 2 lane road, and they get all huffy...

Yeah well it was on a two lane road, she was behind me and I was going as per the speed limit, she was tailgating me, then I slowed down for the red light and she just floored it and cut into the other lane in next to me, while we were both waiting for the green she stood there looked at my car, ( i dont even think she looked at me) and gave me the finger I was like uhh? :bowrofl: Then she gave me the disgust look and floored it when it turned green, I went about my way, letting her go ( I met her at the next light but she didnt even look) soo yeah idk i did just notice her rust bucket station wagon tho :roflpuke2:

I might do that next time :stirthepot: but I didn't want to escalate the situation those type of ppl aren't worth the time or effort :tup:

That's what they call the "rat race". You know, all those rats who think they are racing you and know they are losing, so overcompensate or just plain hate.

That's just another Hater man. It comes with the territory. Just shake the haters off, she's not the last one you'll run into. I ran into more haters at Tom Peacock Nissan when i pulled in for a test drive in a 2012 Acura TL (salesman and possible customers), it was a loaner while my Acura was being serviced. To top it off, they didn't even have a Z for me to test drive that wasn't a roadster (very unprofessional dealership). Long story short, I found the perfect dealership for Z enthusiast here in Houston, Baker Jackson North. I'm just waiting for Nissan to release the pre- order list for the 2012 model, there's a shortage of Z's here in Houston, a bunch of roadsters available though. :driving:

You know the funny thing is the exact same thing happened to me, I went to a dealership in CT (Harte Nissan) and all they had for me to test drive was a roadster as well, I guess the shortage of vehicles because of the tsunami in Japan was to blame, but that was one of the main Nissan dealerships in CT, if they didn't have them I don't know who would. That dealership also told me it might be about 3 to 4 months till we get any coupes. So I contacted dealerships outside CT, and then I found one in Philly and NJ. Finally went with the one in NJ (since it was the color i wanted, red) went down on a Monday put in a deposit and picked it up the following Saturday. The people there were really nice, Classic Nissan in NJ, would recommend them to anyone around the NJ, NY, CT area. :tup:

I forgot to add in my post that Tom Peacock Nissan didn't offer a roadster for a test drive, I wound up test driving a test driving a base model at Baker Jackson North. I was very impressed with Baker Jackson North, they were very professional. To be honest, i had a problem with Tom Peacock back in 1997 when i had a 1987 nissan Maxima at the time (needed injectors replaced under TSB), had to get approved through corporate two weeks later, sure enough, none of the service managers or advisors were around when i was called by corporate to pick the up the Maxima from Tom Peacock . To be honest, i just went there because they were down the street from the Acura dealer i've been going to since 2001. I always told my wife i would end up buying my first Z from Baker Jackson.

Ok Im glad I'm not the only one! I thought I was just being paranoid because when I drive my Z I notice so much more bs driving going on. All kinds of nonsense! When I drive my Mini Cooper to work it always seems to be a much more pleasant drive.... all smiles and sunshine around me lol. I drive the Z and its madness and chaos. The WORST is the people that purposely flick their cigarettes out at my car and give you that Eff U look. This thread just confirms my suspicions. I wonder if I put stripes and a Union Jack on the Z if things would change? LOL Now there's a photoshop challenge! :)

i know how everyone here feels exactly now as i awoke yesterday morning to find that someone had actually spit on the driver side window and i've only had the car for a week now. I mean who the hell spits on someone elses car nowadays really?
