Came back to my car with a nice magma red nismo parked next to me at the Mitsuwa parking lot in San Jose on Sunday.

Yesterday I was standing next to my Nismo and a black (2014?) Nismo (big wing) drove right by me. It has these crazy huge red letter sidewall tires on it. This was on Story and McLaughlin (outside Com Tam Thien Huong). I'm too old to sport those red letter tires but man that car looked wicked!!!!

White 350Z on 880 under Hamilton in SJ. Looks like he lost it cause the rear was all smashed in. Bummer!

I see them once or twice a week. Had some fun with a white one on 680 on the Friday before our Christmas shutdown around 2:00. Saw a lot more speed enforcement 2 weeks later when I started commuting again. Wonder if they caught the guy that was speeding... First day back they got a white 911 with checkerboard flag graphics on his car.

why are most Z drivers a bunch of D-bags? I mean i'll admit I drive like a a** sometimes but regardless... most of the Z drivers i come across seem like old men who would rather drive their automatic nismo in the slow lane. I never seem to come across anyone who is genuinely passionate about their car like i may be.. its frustrating. Makes me miss my b6 audi a4... at least there was more enthusists driving them * END dumb Rant*

I don't find that to be a problem when things open up and it's pretty safe.
Your probably just don't know how to incite them.

I don't fully understand your rant. You are mad at other owners because they don't drive fast like you?

Why are you mad that you don't run into enthusiasts? Make meeting them that much better. You should have been on the forum back in 2009-2010, this forum was great then...

It's rare spotting other Z's around here. If you want to wave at other cars every day, should have gotten a WRX/STi
