Do you guys get haters while driving a Z ?

One time I was driving my 370 and a guy in a Chevy Cobalt pulled alongside. I happened to make eye contact with him and he flipped me off --

One time I was driving my 370 and a guy in a Chevy Cobalt pulled alongside. I happened to make eye contact with him and he flipped me off -- so I blew him a kiss and he sped away with a very odd look on his face.

Pay no nevermind to others on the road -- It just ain't worth it.

No haters here. I've owned 3 Z cars, a Vette, a Scubie WRX, and I have never come across any haters.

I did have an old dude in a new BMW 650 GT (think upscale Malibu MAXX) do an impromptu test of acceleration and speed along side with me yesterday. But I wouldn't call that hating. Kind of funny though because the guy and the car really threw me off!

Do that all the time. Drives them crazy, because it is non-confrontational and they are looking to piss you off.

So far 350 guys seem to be the only ones that act like D-Bags to me.

Zero issues here. I've gotten waves, thumbs up, and propositioned by a couple early 20's girls (it only happened once and I'm married so it doesn't matter). I really haven't gotten hate from people.

If someone took the time to turn around and give me the bird I would probably just laugh. They obviously have issues and let them be.
