Windshield is not tinted, but sides and back glass are. May also be an age thing. I'm not sure how old you are, but I get the feeling there's a couple years between us. I turned 24 last month.

Backing out at night requires windows to be rolled down, but as long as it's moving forward, I don't have any issues with visibility.

Say it ain't so. I went to a Z show and a guy had an LS in a 280z. Must have seen the chagrin in my face. Said it makes it go faster. Hey, he spoke to me, I had said nothing. I said, then why not get a Camaro? It's a cool car. The engine is the heart of the car. The Z is a sports car, not a drag racer. I also have a 68' Barracuda, 360, and see LS's in everything, some even GM. Would we put a Ford 351 Cleveland in a Camaro? A 429 in a Chevelle? A Mopar 440 in a Corvette? No! The Z guy insisted the LS was cheaper. I said he had no soul. If I bought a Porsche 911, guess what engine I'd want under the hood? As a teacher I heard the "drop in the LS" thing from high school students all the time... their lazy default. It's like rooting for the Yankees but you don't live in or near, and have never been there. It's okay, but it takes no imagination and is about as original as discovering we breath air. I had to school a lot of young people almost all who could not fathom why on earth anyone would Drive a Z. Don't you want a Ford or Chevy truck, Mr. s, they would intone. Oh brother.

LOL, I have been driving with tinted windows since 1986. You learn what and what not to do. You will get there one day my young Padawan. By the way, back in the day, you were a dope head if you had tinted windows. LOL Far from the truth but that is what people thought.

I got to drive one of the early Scarabs (Chevy 350 in a 240Z body). Holy crap, that thing would fly...:eek::eek:
That was before we knew about good tires, suspensions, bigger brakes; you know all the stuff that might keep us from flying away... :bowrofl::bowrofl:

Was cruising coming off the highway, windows down and just enjoying the summer evening. At the light, some dude in his 60s pulls up in a Audi A4. Lectures me how my car has too much power for someone for my age and how his Audi would smoke my car. As per usual I laughed and rolled my window up.

There was a time where this raised pick up was trying to race me on the highway. I would speed up and close the gap so quick and let off the gas and he would catch up again. He thought he was keeping up... Poor champ. At least I made someones day.

Note to self. Never be that old guy IF I ever get older.

:eekdance:

Right? Had he said that to a Mustang driver, i'd be inclined to agree since the first time i drove one (Light tune 2015 5.0) I hit the throttle and instantly thought "I know exactly how idiots crash these"

Most people think I'm just some ricer thanks to the wing. Two dudes in a camaro roll up on me looking like they wanted to race; I could hear their engine knock when accelerating over my own car, so i just rolled my windows up and slowed down to 55 lmao.

I've been known to goat some. Smash the pedal, nail 2nd, and then cruise mode. :D and watch them take off into the sunset.

hahaha, i'll admit, I'm that guy who will roll a bit at the stop light to see if the other car jumps while it's still red.

Haha! Don't be THAT guy ever.


Hahah engine knock. Oh man. Gold.

Dude, too late. You ARE older! LOL

Almost every Redneck in a Mustang/Camaro/Challenger here runs 86 octane. I figure it’s because when you spent every penny you had on the down payment you can’t afford to put good gas in it.

Not to mention when you get 11 MPG... :bowdown:

Here’s what comes to my mind every time some yahoo in a “muscle” car pulls up next to me looking for trouble....

The best part is I typically get friendly waves and thumbs ups from Ferrari drivers. I even had some guy park next to me and ask questions about my car at a COTA race day. (there were plenty of open spots in the lot).

I get a lot of comments on the Z. Usually when I'm getting gas. I'll have someone walk up and say a few things. 99% positive. What's funny. Every once in a while. I get some idiot that wants to race. I'll ask him what size is his rear tires are. He'll tell me, and I start to laugh. Pissin' him off. I'll tell him that my front tires are BIGGER then his rear tires. He'll look at them, then look at the rears, and walk away. I'm packin' big meat. :tup: 285-345. :tup:
