well mustangs and most other cars are belly button cars.. EVERYONE knows what they are, only kids into cars know what Z's are, other people who are just jealous FCKS think it's an exspensive $50k car.. i thought it was back in 03 when i saw the first one, people just get jealous.

Everyone seems to hate on these things, but honestly I love my Z.. then again i've had it since monday!

i got a thumbs down after i hurt a WRX's feelings, it was stock turbo'd not an STI, he did the "buck" on the highway, so i stayed in 5th gear and just held the gas down and slwoly accelerated and i heard him downshift and punch it and he barely kept up! LOL, then i got off my exit and he gave me the thumbs down.

most of my friends that hate on z's are because they say they are painfully slow as compared to some other cars such as an rx7 or evo.

that is their words, not mine.

ours dont come with turbos , and plus a stock evo8 isnt much better than a stock Z :X, if you want to go fast in a straight line for less $ get a domestic or a stock turbo'd import.

you want a REAL car, get a Z :]

I got a thumbs down on I-10 from an 55+ year old guy in a Elise. He took my same exit, and I asked him at the light, what his problem was, and he said "yellow only looks good on sports cars". His car was yellow.

I'm surprised the guy in the lotus did that, but the hating has much less to do with the Z than with what it says about the hater. They might as well have a sign stapled to their forehead that says pompous or invidious idiot. Of course they would have to google both words as they don't know what dictionarys are.

My car has been egged twice since it was delivered in July 2004, the second time two new mustangs and an Audi TT were hit on my block (don't know about the first time, I did not check the neighborhood), before that, nothing all the way back to when I started driving in 1987.

Having two old defenseless cars in the garage already, with lift systems far to big to be practical in my small garage, I thought I would finally have to sell one of them so I could get my Z in there. After a month of weekends and after work sessions, I got three cars in my two car garage and now I can sleep at night again.

I like the elise, but I would have replied: "So how do you feel driving that glorified go kart?"

ive had a bunch of different incidents. but never any hate from evo or sti owners tho....even when i was n/a... wonder y?

a 5.0 mustang laughed at me after i walked all over him

a kid asked if my car was a saturn

i get alot of **** from srt4 guys, then i demolish them.

had coffee poured over my car once

had my door keyed by an old jealous friend-->then i knocked him out

car got backed in2 at work. hit n run ftl

a kid in a grand prix told me my car was weak. HAHAHA

gave a thumbs up 2 a kid in a cobalt and he gave me a thumbs down. gay

had a cop tell me young ppl like me shouldnt b driving porsche's hehe

got my *** handed 2 me by a gt35r evo, and given a thumbs up. that was cool

had an older guy in a corvette tell me 2 take my rent a car sports car back 2 the toy store....he stopped laughing when he heard the turbos.

the worst was when a trans am driver told me 2 go play fast and furious sumwhere else. he revved at me at a red light...and killed it on the launch. ive never seen sumbody take a right turn so fast lolololol.

mind i dont drive aggressive or fly around on the street, bcuz i dont want the attention from police, other drivers etc. its peopl like these that shouldnt b driving on the streets. but no matter where u go theres gonna b haters.

Why does everyone ask this question?

The Z is a beautiful car... stupid punk-asses that don't have nice **** to themselves can't concieve the fact that others can have nice **** and therefore destroy said nice **** so they can feel somewhat good about themselves.

WRX's (even modded... stock turbo of course) ain't that fast. But I will never understand anyone giving anyone a thumbsdown after a race. That's ghey.

you want a REAL car, get a Z :]
A stock Evo 8 (depending on year) isn't faster than a Z. An Evo IX is a different story.

And if you want a real car, I suggest you stop buying them from KB Toys and start buying from dealerships.

i once had a similar experience, found two rusty gigantic screws in one of my brand new dunlops coming back from a dealership.
