The guy drives an 82 Mercedes diesel. He gets ticketed constantly for driving too slowly, warnings for contributing more to global warming than Exxon-Mobil, chicks won't date him and he's pissed.

I suspect it's the rating category. My insurance went up substantially when I moved from the Vette to the Z, but everyone knows it's old men that drive them and rarely put them in harms way. Hardly the case with many here and their Z's.......

My quotes barely moved when I went from a Scion to a Z and actually went up when I was quoted for both a G37 and 135i.

From a Scion? That's just not right. I mean, for you it is very right . It's just "not right".

Well that's a huge assumption that you just made about somebody whom you had never met before and whom you know absolutely nothing about.

This newsgroup is for discussing how much we love the new 370Z. It wasn't created to give anybody a hard time.

Oh really, it's not for giving anybody a hard time? Then what do you call this?

Finally did a test drive!

Do you call that being friendly? Because I think it falls closer to the 'giving someone a hard time' category. It also seems to me that you were making a huge assumption about somebody you've never met before and know absolutely nothing about.

Semtex, that was well said. And quite frankly it was the only reason I even bothered replying to this guy. Quite opinionated, isn't he?
