Yes OP, there are plenty of dirt bags in the car scene. This is nothing new.

Ive never had a bad experience with Z owners, always get the flashing lights or the honk or thumbs up, thats from the guys though, most of the Z owners in my area are women.

The only car guys I have ever gotten sick of are the SRT-4 Neon guys. They think they sh*t unicorns kisses...

^HAHAHA neons, the maine racing car lool. look guys i know there are douchebags everywhere but pretty much the main point of this thread is to be a active member. i know i talk a lot about my rx8 and im sorry but it was my first car and i worked hard for it so i love it more. on rx8club i wasnt that active and barely anyone knew me. i wish i could be helpfully active on this site but i dont have as much knowledge of the z as many of you guys do so i dont want to post pointlessly in a thread that someone is really looking for help. and i made this thread just so i can be a little known around here. maybe someday i can be helpful but until then i at least want to be active.

I am a fan of the RX8 believe it or not even though it has nothing called torque. I love the unique design of the engine and I've heard the BMI 4 rotor RX8 in person...wow....that thing gives me goosebumps when it revs.

i meant they think the z is better than every other model car. i know someone is going to say get rid of your z if you dont like it so before you do please leave because like i said i love my z and im proud to be an owner but i dont play mine is better, unless of course its a rice rocket, then by all means take your shots. i just hate it when people brag. its like a broke down honda owner acting like he owns a ferrari. take pride in what you own but dont let your pride turn into arrogance. i had a sls owner talk to me for 10 minutes about how my rx8 was so cool(i know the rx8 again, but as my join date suggests the z is fairly new so i dont have many stories of it) and i was just overwhelmed with pride, respect, i felt like my car was the best ever if a sls owner compliments it and i wish more people were modest about what they own and still remember that the reason we own nice cars is because we are enthusiasts of all types of nice cars.

I think you need to find something better to do with your life than dwell on if people that own the same car as you are douchebags or not.

In my opinion all the Z guys I’ve met are pretty chill and cool. I have the only 350 out of the z's I hangout with, but buying one is like joining a club bro where I’m from. I will say that a lot of Z guys are cocky with their cars. But that’s because they are car enthusiast. Cars are their passion. Me not so much, I just love my Z. My passion is in vagina and money

i wave to every Z i see and plenty of other cars even if they don't see me. when i was apart of the "chargerfam" i did the same thing. its all about respect IMO. it says something like nice car and a general acknowledgment towards them.
i like to look at cars in general like everyone else.
if i can i try to park next to someone who i know respects their car.

Dont get me wrong I love my Z and it is the nicest car i have ever personally owned but i dont walk around or act stuck up because i own one.

Now on the other hand if i owned a GTR .....
We had this exact conversation the other day at the meet.

Agree 100%

These damn kids now think the Z is the best car ever and talk so much smack! They even rev at me in my 08 with their POS 03 that is riced out.

This is the truth all the time. recently this kid in my neighborhood bought the same exact color Z as me (Le Mans Sunset), and the other day he pullled up the stoplight next to me and started honking and revving his engine, i just looked at him and laughed, and he proceeded to do that stupid *** ricer pass by with the flashing lights, needless to say young car owners are just dumb at that age, i know i was too.

These kids aren't totalling their Z's fast enough. Cmon you little dorks, watch tokyo drift then take your plastidipped rice box out for spin and make sure you aim your eBay lip right at a utility pole.

Next best thing. LOL

Recently had some teenager in my area aquire a Turbo'd Neon (srt-4) and was jumping all over my *** trying to race. I pulled in my neighborhood and he followed pulling beside me so I stopped. He had about 4 freinds in the car and asked me "hey, you wanna race." I laughed a little and said maybe next time.
