No, it just makes a person's douche-ness more obvious.

Doesn't happen to me. The chances of seeing a Z in Lancaster are pretty rare

You can't put all the young generation of Z owners in the category of douches. I flash my lights or say "nice Z" to anyone that has one. But i guess this is because ever since I started driving I always flashed my lights at Z's.

"Does owning a Z turn you into a douche??"

No. I'm still pretty f***ing awesome and better than everyone else.

J/K

I think it's just the younger crowd who are lucky enough to have a Z33 as their first car instead of an old vehicle ('89 Toyota Corolla in my case).

Not all Z drivers are passionate about their car, to some, it's just another car and they could care less if somebody else has the same car as them.

I talked with a guy who also had a nismo Z, and he didn't give a rats *** that I had one. seeing another Z didn't even faze him.

Yeah, my Corolla was one of the first FWD models for the lineup but I didn't care. I didn't even know the difference nor cared about different makes. I was just happy to be cruising

"You are what you is" - F Zappa, 1981

What you drive, eat, play or do isn't going to make you a douche or change you into one. If you already are one, you'll still be one.

@ AZHR.. what part of Alaska? I was born n raised in FBKS.. now living in scottsdale.. been here 10 years.....you should add me in on your contacts list.

yeah ak people are always cool about waving, but here in AZ they are terrible about it.. UNLESS its a heavily moddded car. But if it only has one or two things on it, i thnk the idea is that they feel a bit outdone if youre driving a mega mod car. Theres a lot of ego involved in our cars, hate to say.

One group i notice is ALWAYS cool enuff to wave are the mega cars, Buggattis, Lambos, etc... they all seem to respect good machines.
It happens, but yeah, ive noticed that the Z32 crowd was all really much more cool w waving etc.

I also notice that
