Bizarre Z Owner

Hugoneus · 07-15-2010, 12:40 PM

Every now and then I get a little compliment for my Z or have a chat with other car enthusiast about the car's inner workings and specs.

I also always wave to or say hello to other Z owners, and I have had great positive responses from them... until yesterday.

I drove to a nearby town and parked the car across the road from a coffee shop. When I crossed the road I saw a 350z parked in front of the shop. The car was in great shape, clean, well maintained so I figured the owner must be a Z lover too. As I was getting closer I saw the owner and his girlfriend (I think) come out of the shop and I just said:

"Hello! Love your car, how long have you had it? It is in great shape!"

He then said, (and I am trying to quote him as well as I remember):

"yeah, thats because I don't waste time bothering other people about their car, if you did the same maybe then you can afford one"

Needless to say, I was shocked, I nearly fell over. I didn't know what to say, so I just took out my keys, locked the car again which made a little horn sounds, he saw my car and then I went into the coffee shop.

hahaha, funny story. was the girl pretty, or did she look outdated too?

shabarivas · 07-15-2010, 01:01 PM

Thanks for your support guys,

Even though I should not care, his reaction and the look of disgust on his face, really upset me!

PS: The girl was pretty, which is all the more shame to be with such an *******. I didn't look at her, but I think she was embarrassed.

xiven · 07-15-2010, 01:05 PM

She should be. That guy's a prick.

xiven · 07-15-2010, 01:06 PM

i find that 350's like to park nearby or next to me. thats ok, they can do that all they want. it just makes my car look that much better than theirs.

shadoquad · 07-15-2010, 01:09 PM

I just think that's the difference between posers and enthusiasts. When I see enthusiasts in 370's and 350's, the wave comes out.

When you see some prick poser who's too cool for school, you get that kind of reaction. Then it's time to let them know that it's a Nissan, not a lambo.

so, were you wearing cloths from like 3-4days ago without taking a shower or something?

What a douche. I'm guessing his age was under 25

Some people crack me up.

Honk the horn & give him a wave if spot him again. Nothings more fun than knocking
a-holes down a peg or two.

Stuff you should have said after locking your car (feel free to add):
"maybe someday you can afford one too"
