I have noticed a bit of 370Z douchebaggery around here. But it's really to be expected because the 350 was very much a douchebag magnet. Maybe not as bad as the Evo/STi crowd but a lot of douchebags drive Zs.

I'm just glad we have a little MD/VA/DC "club" with an unspoken rule that, if you're a d-bag, you're out!

Where in Eastern OK are you?

I've seen someone around here floating around my area with another Black 370z, just wonder if it's you or not...lol

I bought mine at the beginning of June - odd...which dealer did you get yours?

And...it wasn't me.

I kinda take offense to this comment. Kinda unnecessary. When I had my STI I had Z's try to race me all the time.

Hehe, Pushing Tin quoted me a while back saying, "when I had a Mustang I used to think 350Z drivers were douchebags. Now that I have a Z, I think a lot of Mustang drivers are douchebags. So just keep in mind that someone out there thinks you're a douchebag." Or something like that.

I didn't really mean to be offensive... I guess what I should have said is that inevitably there is going to be some douchebaggery among the owners of 370Zs, just like there is in any other perceived "hot" car... whether it be a Mustang, STi, Ferrari, etc.

So yeah, my first post was kinda out of line and didn't really get across what I was trying to say.

SOOO, a bit off topic but when I had my 05 touring 350Z, a black 370Z pulled up next to me with his gf in the car, at the redlight he revved hard and when the light turned he took off. So I don't know there are some douchbaggery drivers out there for sure.

Yeah, you're way out from me - lol.

I've seen one other black Z and a blue Z, but I've not seen the blue one since around July...lol

It follows the line by George Carlin...

Ever notice the person going slower than you is an idiot, and the person going faster than you is an *******?

As with all Carlin jokes, it's funny on a number of levels.

Last night I pulled one, I had a girl in my car, and next to me was a thug-mobile, playing music relating to the attitude that belongs with that kind of junk...

I shot out of that light like a cannon and enjoyed every second. I'm sure I was a d-bag to the thug-mobile, but, I didn't care. I have a fast car...they have a loud bass-heavy radio and listen to crap music.

I take off at every light like I drive a Z, whether a GT500 or Neon are sitting next to me. Do I redline it and test my 0-60 at every light? Not hardly, but I put my foot down, sure. I'm sure many people have thought to themselves "what an a-hole!".

The only time I've ever looked at another driver and thought "he's a douche!" is when I pulled up next at a light and there was a slicked-back, long-haired, middle-aged, Italian-looking guy with black driving gloves (in fall), and a pedo-stache that was trying to rev his bmw against my 88 Tracer.
