Reason(s) why you hate taking friend in your Z!
i thought i was lucky, the gf put her purse/bag in the back... then has the nerve to turn around put her knee (all her weight) on my center console (06) and reach back. No longer opened, had to force it open and use it a couple times to get back to normal. and she left a f'in gummy worms wrapper

I just got my Z last week and have had friends in it and I already have one big annoyance.
When they ***** about me not speeding everywhere I go *I usually just go about 5 or 10 over speed limit on freeways* I live in California.
I'm like "well lets see....its a new car so I don't feel I know it well enough to be speeding around in it because that causes accidents, I don't feel like getting a ticket because that will surely screw my insurance and last, maybe I like cruising as opposed to speeding because its more chill
"

i don't essentially "hate" it but it tends to get quite annoying.
i think that my fellow lowered Z guys can attest to this:
I find it annoying when the passenger asks (more than once) "is it supposed to do that?" when the car rubs on a dip/turn. ORRR when the exhaust piping scrapes when i go over a speed bump even when profiling and the passenger states "your car is just too low" when there is no such thing as "too low" :P
"why do you drive so slow over train tracks?"
"why do you go over speed bumps at an angle?"
"why does it scrape the ground?"
"why is it so hard to get out of your car?"
FUUUU! don't ride with me! lol

I'm like, "Chill the f*k out and lose some weight!"
End of date. oh well, can't be half a gangster.
I also hate it when people ask me for a ride.
And I give it to them cause I'm a nice guy.
THEN they tell me to slow down.
Usually I tell them they can get a ride from somewhere else or I let me drive as I please.
The ONLY person that can tell me to slow down is my mother.

=*( i don't feel so alone anymore...
- people closing slamming the door... x2 if the window is half way up (sounds like the window is gunna shatter into a million pieces)
- people asking me where my glove compartment is? (if you knew, what the eff would you be putting in MY glove compartment... (actually i'm just kind of frustrated because i don't have one up front and that i don't have an in cabin air filter)
- random sneeze not covered by their hands. WTF seriously... all over my windshield?
- i get that the doors are heavy, but using your foot to hold the door open or buy you time to get out is unacceptable.
- passangers who try to look to see if the road is clear only to block your vision. the z has enough blind spots to have to work around your head. if i need help i'll ask.

fortunately I've had my Z for 6 years and only 2 years ago did i realize 1 thing would fix all my problems, when I have a passenger in my car I tell them " you have no rights inside here" end of story
Lastly which actually is an issue I have with the site, why does my caption say noob when I've been an Uber lurker for so long
I hate when they try to have a conversation with me in the car. I mean....shut up and listen to the beautiful harmonic sound of my amuse exhaust with the occasional swoosh sound of the hks bov from my momentum kit.
slamming the fkn door
kicking side skirt and cf panels (lift your fkn feet up just that little bit more)
how fast have you gotten it
leaving trash in my door
shut it the fk up!!!
LOL

- feet on the door/kickplate - if at 6'4 260 lbs (yeah I'm a big dude) I can get out without touchin anything, you can turn and slide your tiny self out easily.
- cranking the stereo - ive got some nice alpines that are amped. level 20 in your car is level 6 in mine. hands off.
- complaining about holding their drink on a long drive - the cupholders suck, and I'm not gonna hold mine. if you dont like it, drink it up and throw it away.
but the thing that pisses me off is when someone asks me to pick them up and when I get there, they have a giant box or something that def wont fit.

my z was a salvage and all beat up and i didn't get it fixed up until a year later, after i painted it red and put a carbon fiber roof, hood, and trunk and these people who never talk to me were like hey man can i ride with you??? noobs just wanna look cool
Passenger trying to open the door to get in just as I press the unlock button on the remote...another one of those complaints that applies to all cars, but having to press the lock button and unlock again to open it makes a particularly nasty sound on the Z.
