When you spot another 370z..
So I've been driving around my 40th for a few months now and have only seen a few z's around. I spot the 350 on the road a mile away with those tail/headlights and brag to myself because I have a 370.
When I spot a 370z, I chuckle inside because I have a sport package. When I spot a 370z with a sport package I grin to myself because my 40th wheels+red calipers and car color is awesomer(my opinion) Then just yesterday... I spot a 370 Nismo on PCH and I couldn't stop thinking to myself "That mother effer!" I couldn't believe how jealous I got. Anyone else get similar thoughts when you spot another one? Just in case it was your Nismo, the plate read "LOVE JW" it looked damn good Edit: we are all adults here and should not take my own natural thoughts personally. It was spotting one on the road that made me get one in the first place.

When i see another Z, i wave or give a quick dbl flash of the headlights. I really dont feel neither superior nor inferior to other models of Zs.

Hahaha I hear what you're saying and yes I kinda think that way, though I'd still take my 40th over a Nismo. I love seeing other 370z' on the road, you get to check it out in motion which is sexy where as mine is only parked when I get to see it.
I give a wave/thumbs up to all Z drivers

Edit: I don't literally pull alongside and laugh at people or anything. It's an inside feeling.

I saw a Lamborghini a few days ago and felt content with what I had in comparison. I didn't get that feeling "I wish I owned that." Maybe it's an age thing? I'm 32. I guess I don't really get over whelmed with that internal jealousy feeling.
Meh Edit: I wave/nod to all other Z drivers too. |

Wow, I'm just happy to see another Z. Not everything needs to be a competition brah.
Although I do wish other Z owners around here were as happy to see me, have only gotten one wave from a 350. |

i saw another CY Z round where i work the other day. i was at a light and had to wait 5-7 sec before it was green so i could go. when i could go i caught up as quick as i could. it was a base CY. i waved to them since they obviously have great taste like me and bought the fastest color Z you can buy
