ok, most things don't **** me off, but some things do! was at the gas station today in my work truck and work clothes (construction contractor i am) and was filling up some gas cans. well, i see a black Z next to me at a pump and go over to talk to the guy. i ask him how he likes his Z and he says it's great and walks off as i was talking. i asked him another question and he just walked off!! now i can understand if your in a hurry or something, but he did it thinking he was better cause my clothes are all dirty. well there mister fancy pants, you shall get a good flaming now cause he had the gayest Z i have ever seen, and i thought i was being nice by talking to him, lol.
get this, a set of 16-17x7.5 crap wheels with spinners!!!! and some k-mart seat covers!!! i tried to get a picture on my phone of his hideous attempt at vehicle customization, but it appears i hit the wrong button and didn't get it. when i first saw the wheels i thought they were the hubcap type spinners, hahahaa. i hope the guy is a member here to see this and maybe have a bit more acknowledgement and respect of others, cause you never know who you might be talking to!

 

He goes up to civics and says , "more than you cann afford pal, Nissan!" lol same thing I went through 3 weeks ago leaving physical therapy, karma bit him in the *** though.

 

lmao good story indeed.

I actually ran into a Z owner at the carwash today; what an a$$hole. He pulled up right as they were finishing my car. I walked over to him and said wow nice Z, I just sold mine less than a month ago and I loved it while I had it. He actually had the nerve to say to me "yeah, I don`t blame you for selling it. It even puts a strain on MY pocket to make payments sometimes. Maybe in a few years you can make the payments."

I should have been like "Yeah. Other than the fact that I paid in cash and bought a car that cost me twice as much in exchange, you`re absolutely right."

Too bad I just nodded my head and walked away

 

the thing I hate the most are some of the G owners (not saying G owners in general, but just a few) that look down on the Z just because it's a nissan while they drive an infiniti not knowing it's almost the same car.

 

hehe funny story! I would of been like "I lied!, ur car is ugly!!" hehe! U'll always meet jerks like that! I kinda like people coming up to my car and complimenting me on the looks. I like answering their questions cause it makes me feel good. By the way, with the G drivers lookin down on the Z, jerk this! lol i love both cars, but i jus love the Z more. Its jus my opinion!

 

17" spinners?? *puke*

 

... "more than you can afford pal, 350Z"

 

Its too bad people respond like that. It just a fricken car!!!

re: those owners with the so called "high end import models" andwith attitude - the snob appeal promotion worked. LOL (I have a Acura TL - I still consider it a Honda)

 

i saw a G on the freeway this weekend at night. i looked at the guy and gave him the universal acknowledgement nod, and he kinda smurked a bit, but still thought he was a bit too cool. he had his lady with him, so i couldn't let the chance go by. i gave it a little throttle and passed him, little did he know it was only about 5-10% throttle, hahhaa. he gets on it and passes me so when the car in front of me changed lanes i pull next to him again, start laughing my *** off and accelerate as much as the wet road will allow me with the rear tires fighting till i hit 100mph and let off. funny thing, he never caught up?
ya some people don't know they are almost the same car, and msrp was $100 more on the G then my Z with the options i have. i think i have made up that difference by now, lol. not knocking G guys either, but some people don't know much about cars and buy the G for the name and think they need to look at the Z as a lesser car.

 

Ya.... I pull up on this G and he was like brrwahhh and I was like yo....so I go bwahhhhhh and he was like whoa...

 

The guy from the initial post could have just been shy, or lacked people skills...then again I guess he could have just been an a$$hole too.

 

That's funny... Your location doesn't specify tigard oregon...

j/k

 

What I mean by that is some people have a hard time talking to people they don't know and in turn they act like that. I work with a guy that practically runs away from you when you try to talk to him (nice guy, extremely anti-social).

Edit: I didn't mean overZealous1, I was talking about the guy that wouldn't talk to him.

 

I agree.
I also think it is a cultural thing... Different cultures different habits...
I found that people in the US are very strong talkers. It's considered rude if you don't talk. Like in an elevator. Cannot have silence... must talk... to strangers. At a bus station waiting... must talk to strangers... Almost as if one cannot bear the silence.

In other cultures people can be quite annoyed if a stranger comes up and makes small talk. It has nothing to do with whether or not you feel "superior" or not. It's just that you want to have your peace and not waste time on small talk and you prefer staying quiet if there is nothing important to say.

Nevertheless, even if it goes on somebody's nerves, I would guess that in all cultures it is rude to ignore someone once he did talk to you.

 

ugh...
people need to go outside and look at what they got...
a 350Z is not a porsche 911...
its not a ferrari 360
come on... its ENTRY level sports coupe...
for a young kid like me... its fine... but if ur 30-40 and drive a Z... i dont know... get a damn 911 and go get ur mid-life crisis...

 

Nah that sort of person would be condsidered a loudmouth yapper in any culture. But If your talking about us yanks, from what I see its mostly midwestern/southern people who are most likely like that. Ever been in an elevator in LA or NY? nobody even looks at eachother

IMO I think the dude was rude cause he was preoccupied with robbing the gas station

 

Was it a SB? I've seen a SB around town with spinners. I went light-headed when I saw that ****.

 

Why would you even go talk to an obviously retarded tasteless Z owner? I would look at him and shake my head, if he saw me and said "whats wrong" Id start pointing gay $hit out on his car....Im a car guy, and easy to get along with but I see Z owners everyday I would want no part of. Either put tasteless $hit on their cars or are cocky.

 

You may consider it any entry level sports car but I consider it a GREAT sports car for the money and even though I can afford a 911 I bought the Z because of its styling, reliability, power and price. I consider these all to be important in a vehicle. It can cost $1000 dollars for a service call on a 911, why would I spend that when the Z can get as many double-takes as you can get in a 911 and save money to boot.

 

A 30-35k car is not a kid's car. Just because your parents bought your Z and sent you to one of the most expensive schools in the area (just guessing about you) (40k a year for Vill. I think) doesn't mean you get to flame on others who have worked for theirs.

I am 25 and hope I never spend 100k on a car (ie 911), if I do, call me an idiot
