yesterday afternoon got behind some illegals in a jeep grand cherokee (old and beat up) and they are doing 40 in a 55 and i'm about 5 car lengths back to prevent chips. when the passing zone comes up they speed up, though not enough for me to get around when they swerve at me as i go around. just have one thing to say, glad i got the sport package. its bigger brakes showed them how fast it would stop and they ended up in the ditch lol had to stop to miss a squirrel

forget the illegals, good thing that squirrel is ok!

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.

I'm new to the Houston area, and have been amazed at the lack of Z inventory, not only in the Houston area, but Dallas and San Antonio as well. So far, I've had no luck locating a Silver Touring 7 AT with Sport and Nav.

While one local dealer had one listed on their web site, the car had been sold. To date, I've actually found only one car so-equipped, but didn't like the color. I'm just going to wait for the spring.

Can you recommend an Acura dealer for service? My wife has an MDX.

I got randomly flipped off by a chick in a mid 90's BMW on my way home from work yesterday. Passed her doing 3 over and was in the left lane the entire time while she was in the right lane, as I pass I look over to see the salute flying high

Can't Understand Normal Thinking

i had a chick follow me off highway 40 into a taco bell drive thru line just to flip me off because i passed her right as she put her blinker on to overtake the car infront of her. i honestly think women don't know what mirrors on a car are for...

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:

People would randomly flip me off in my F_body. Act a fool in their big trucks around it trying to show off how fast their F250 with just a chip can accelerate to 100, etc. It's not different in my "z". People are just stupid. You don't change it by driving a different car, you just bring it out in different ways depending on the car you are driving.

The people there were really nice, Classic Nissan in NJ, would recommend them to anyone around the NJ, NY, CT area.
Not to counteract your experiences, but I'm local to this dealership and I would -not- recommend them to anyone.

I have had bad experiences with them personally, and I believe there was a story on the forum about how poorly they treated a customer about a year ago.

A lowered miata and body kit(ted) Scion TC sandwiched me and proceeded to try and race me on the three way "road" to the movie theater. It is not an actual road but more of a paved path to the movie theater around the shopping center. That miata really put me to shame as he took off and I didnt even go past 25 mph lol.
