not heated at all like i stated it wasnt a "big deal" i just assumed that since we were part of the "same thing" aka the Z community people would be more chill about things because like 95 % of the guys on here are pretty cool, i mean i admit there are people who mouth off a bit and hide behind a computer but for the most part the Z guys are solid and always willing to lend a helping hand..
moving on...
moving on...
This definitely applys to Z's, but G's, thats a whole different thread.
There is a douche who I would see every morning that has cut me off several times (in the same week)..

i feel you, when i first got my 350z bone stock in 2003, for some reason G35's always tried to race me...
i was just minding my own business living "ghetto fabulous" with fo of my finest hoes in my 350z (2 seater) when alot of G35's with that ugly snowboard spoiler would roll up and "bone out" automatic style with that elongated VQ roar ... j/k
but the past few years i havent really had any much encounters with G35's, usually hondas especially RSXs !!!

I've been a culprit to being an a-hole to other Z owners... but only because they deserved it. I'm not gonna let you rush up on me from the rear on my lane,fly by me and then not expect some reprisal. Also, it sucks that I was the only Z owner for a while where I work at and now there are three Z's next door and they're all Silver Stone plus the douche next door to my apartment that just bought one too (also Silver Stone) . My lime light was stolen 
I don't mean to hate but my dream car has become way to common and it sucks! But it still nice to see other Z owners hit me up cuz I like feeling part of the community. I just don't like the increasingly saturated amount of Z's im seeing. Me sad.

That was kind of selfish for you to say.

...has the ability to acknowledge other enthusiats with a friendly gesture, whereas ive never driven by a fellow z owner and got a thumbs up and instead get the ricer flyby instead.
Now i feel embarrassed waving to a another z as i get no response that i stopped alltogether.

In the Z, I usually don't see many other enthusiasists. If I do, I give a friendly wave.
No, my Z is not modded. It is a stock 06 ZR. Wave if you see me go by...

Bat Z AKA Ed is a member on here and is also a very loyal customer to us and I personally think he's a great guy. Doesn't sound like his behavior but either way, Ben, you lose. Ed is a L.A County Sheriff, LOL!

I think my girl's brother knows this Bat Z. He has other dope *** cars right? My girl's bro is also a LA County Shariff. lol. In my opinion, met some of them before, they are pretty cool guys. Maybe it's just the situation.
I wave... but people don't wave back. Some of the motorcycle guys wave. about 75%... but the Z owners I get only about 25% or less... sad... usually only the modded guys wave... stock guys just look and slams on the gas. Haha... oh well.

I was leaving Jtown on my way home when i usually take Broadway down to the 5 fwy but my lazy *** decided to hope on the 110 north where those various tunnels are.. so everyone who knows that area knows the 5 freeway on the left hand side headed to 5 north gets crowded because its a single lane ...
under the tunnel area was hella congested but anyways i try to come in and im a very conservative driver, i always signal because its my biggest pet peeve when people dont signal so i always signal early to let people know waddup..
low and behold i happen to see a black clean Z with a wing, kit and time attacks and vented hood license plate "Bat Z" w/ the same my nismo stickers on his quarter panel which i have on my fender..
well i was signaling and gave the guy a thumbs up as well as the signal to see if he would let me merge in and the guy.. quickly closes the gap..
i just felt bad because im pretty sure "Bat Z" is on here, we have a very tight knit community and we even share the same mynismo sticker on our cars...
no problem with you i think you have a hella clean car i just wish as being part of the same community we coulda helped each other out luckily i was able to merge in down the lane...
but yeah take it easy, see you around...
