Just as i find it strange for someone to comment about people being curious to wonder why people do certain things like hate or just be plain rude.

Nope! But that's okay.

Those Nissan Z-cars are awfully nice, always have been (the "domestic > import" unruly mob can burn me at the stake later). A few years ago before the Camaro concept debuted, I went through a roadster infatuation phase - my uncle had just got a Miata - and was convinced that when I got out of college my first car would be a Saturn Sky Redline or a 350Z.

OP, could be worse - at least he had a nice car. Once I had a guy pull up next to me at a light one in a beat-up old Accord after being in the lane next to me for a mile or so. When we stopped and I looked over at him he had a furious look on his face and gave me the one-finger salute. Never quite figured out what that was about, but needless to say when I smiled and blew him a kiss, he didn't take it well. One of us pulled away from that light with a red face, the other one having a good laugh. You can guess which was which.

I get this all the time. Some D-Bag comes up behind me and revs the engine. Then I let them pass me just to see the look on their faces when they see I am a girl. I just give them a big smile and wave.

Last night I was getting gas and some BIG D-Bag pulls up next to me. Starts to rev the engine and my friend and I just start laughing. I ask her what car he is driving. She said a Honda. He didn’t think he was soooooooo cool after that.



I don't know about you.....but I LOVE when people are hating. I know I have the cooler ride.

Hey, there's a Mustang... looks the same as the year before, and the year before, and the year before... oh wait, they changed the rear lights....

They shortened the front end on them as well. If you race one, you'll also realize that the engine has been changed .

I have NEVER heard of so many people getting flipped off simply because the kind of car they drive, maybe there's more to these stories.

Brilliant way to defuse things and also share the love! Lol!

The best thing in that situation is to show the other driver they are #1. That is done by extending your middle finger on either hand..... Unless you don't like them then you could show them they are #11 but it's hard to drive that way.

Maybe not all the time, but I've seen vids of the V6 beating a 350Z. The 370Z is another story...

whenever people give me the mean mug, I race them. All the time. For money.

I think one day they will make a movie based on my lifestyle.

I never narked on nobody!


Haha, I just laugh at these posts nowadays.... Maybe you cut him off earlier. Or sprayed your windsheild wipers and it caught his car. Or you called his girlfriend fat at a ball game (go Rays) a couple weeks back...or were you trying to hold in a fart and you looked like you were frowning?

I owned a 350Z, it was fun and fast, but really uncomfortable, too small for a 6'2" guy, and not so great on mpg..Never could get the shifting down either, It was "too tight".. only kept it less than a year. plus, being from a GM family, I felt like a traitor...

Just take it with a grain of salt. Right now our cars are at the top of the line as far as class, so its alot of people that just wants to hate. Just let them. Feels good to know that their woman likes my car better than her man.
