Default Do you think this was rude?

My nieghbor showed up with a 370Z, same color (red), as mine. That's as bad as showing up at work with the same shirt as the next guy, except every single day. I would not be irritated if they had at least got a different color.

I am thinking I'll have to trade mine in for a GTR, that should hold off the Joneses for a while.

I suppose eventually these cars will be as common as the old 350Zs were back in the days when everyone had a house to mortgage away to buy a car.

Friend of mine was in a similar situation. He said that he was annoyed initially, but then appreciated having someone to talk with about Z stuff.

Personally, I don't see it rude or offensive. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Why should it bother you? Plenty of other people have a red Z in your trim level...

Now that's offensive. But there isn't much you can do about that. He bought the same car, and...

I say just enjoy your car.

LOL...rude, if you were not friends and never discussed things about your ride...better keep an eye on him, b/c he'll copy all your mods.

or you can take it another way...sell him your present mods & upgrade to other ones
