Annoying things people do, JUST because you are in a Z!
 

So i have found over the past couple weeks driving the roads are filled with morons. Not only some but now everyone acts like one...especially if you are in a 370z. 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:

Careful with the Mustang comments, we have more Mustang fan boys on this forum then Z lovers :stirthepot::stirthepot::stirthepot:

Anyway I think I know what you are talking about. People tend to drive faster around me almost like there trying to race me in there normal everyday cars. I never got the finger LOL but I have had many dirty looks for no reason at all.

people really are idiots. Most people around my town are just jealous. Especially people my age. I don't even try to show-off or brag or anything and still people look at me with a hatrid look? I have wondered why me too??? but yeah ricers try to race me all the time, but i'm not willing to risk my driving privilages over their pos cars... i just look at them and smile most of the time bc I know i have the better car no matter what is faster. some ppl don't understand. THanks for posting this bc I now know I'm not the only person this happens to.

yeah the finger only happened once so far...but it was from an older lady so idc n she was prolly goin through her midlife crisis :bowrofl: but yeah sorry to say tho the mustangs have been gettin on my case...a guy on 1-84 two days ago was like literally in my exahust pipe i was on the right most lane and then when i slowed down he zoomed around me and cut in front of me (no indication either)...when there were two other free lanes? I mean I like mustangs....just not SOME of the dickheads who drive them n act like theres ants in their pants when they see a Z :roflpuke2:

no problem :tup: I knew I wasnt the only who experienced this type of behavior.

dont mean to bring this up, but...what race are you?

fixed

asian

:bowrofl:

ok, keeping with the subject...was the lady who gave u the finger and the cop with the dirty looks, were they white?

the lady was white yes, but the cop was african-american

You are not alone.. I have had ol cameros & mustangs, & a G35 all do the same thing.. They would drive next to me & peel out or cut me off without a signal... for no reason...The world is filled with haters...

I had a guy pacing me for a while yesterday in a Honda Accord. I wasn't paying attention to him other than I was irritated a little that we was right next to me. I could not do anything about it due to traffic conditions so I just went with the flow. Things opened up a bit and I changed lanes to put some space between us and he got in right behind me. I glanced at him in my side view and saw that he was flipping me off. It was almost as if he purposely got behind me just to do that.

What the heck? I did absolutely nothing to this guy. Very odd.

:roflpuke2:

but yeah i think i know wat ur getting at, but i dont think race has much to do with this...jealously has no race boundaries in my opinion.

The other day I had an Ebay'd out Integra trying to drag race me or something on a bridge. Don't get me wrong, I love the Integra, especially when they're modded properly, but this guy's car looked worse than his stupid looking gang hat. It sounded awful and there was a gallon of Quaker State burning out the a$$ end when VTEC kicked in. I guess he failed 2nd grade math or something trying to approach a 370z like he would ever stand a chance. I paid no attention to him though. It took him 20 seconds to get above 60mph and I didn't even accelerate. His brakes sounded like a NYC Public Transit Greyhound. We met at the same light and he started making some stupid noises and stuff out his window, I guess he thought he just beat a 370 or something. :rofl2:
