OK... i see alot of Z's but the ones ive seen dont seem all too friendly... 2 in San jose 2 in hayward and 4 in pleasanton... only one said wsup and gave a thumbs up... (one from pleasanton)
Is it just me... maybe ( or maybe my car has NEWBIE written all over it... or BASE... haha)

I have to agree with you, I see alot of Z's too (not recently though) and they're not too friendly. I wave to say "Hi" and people don't respond. I don't give up though, I still try.

Yea, I agree. And when they do look over they look pissed off because we're driving the same car. When I'm driving my 91 Z32 & see other Z32's they flash their lights, wave, honk and basically go out of their way to say hi. I don't get it. Why are Z33 drivers so rude?

That is true, for about 1/2 to 2/3 of people that I see. I usually honk and stare.... that usually elicits some sort of wave or similar response. Still have yet to see any my350z members though...

I either wave, give a thumbs up or the peace sign, or nod when when both hands are too busy. Sometimes, I don't do anything because I'm either too busy paying attention to the road or i don't see them, especially on the streets. Whenever I see one the freeways, I stay w/ them side by side and honk.

Saw a SS with dealer plates coasting up on the carpool lane on 80E at about 8:40pm on Friday night (by the San Pablo Ave exit). Tearing it up at least past 80MPH.
There was a blown truck tire in the road on 80E between Emeryville and Berkeley... I managed to hit it and now my front bumper is all gouged and scratched up because of the steel threads....
Saw blured350 in the Jtown garage tonight with a mad crowd of Zs, S2Ks and some G35s... that was a cool surprise although I musta missed the posting about the run... didn't run with them, cuz' my g/f wanted to eat at Isobune.
