Annoying things people do, JUST because you are in a Z!

sir, that is totally overreacting. A car is simply a material possession, and even implying that you might cause another bodily harm due to repairable damage to your vehicle is despicable.

in before people that don't get the reference

LMAO, you are so right Dan; hey whatever happened to that punk who threw a rock at your Z. I bet he's still having nightmares about a ripped dude with the perfect hair pouncing out of a rolling Z, wooping his a$$ then drifting like a boss on the way out. If I spot that punk he'll still be looking like this...

I needed you for that punk in the Civic

Shoot I didn't think of it. He was trying to pull one of those Tokyo Drift flirting with the bad guy's girl. Now that you say that, I would have done the same if she were in the punk's car just to get her attention

My second day driving the car to work, my first encounter with the unwashed.

At 5:30 am at a stoplight, a ricer Civic SI pulls next to me, revs his engine, peels out when the light turns green and proceeds to almost run over some guy on a bike! The cyclist was wearing a neon reflective vest and had a bright blinking light on the bike; no way you could miss him unless you weren't paying attention.

Apparently, the cop parked in the Starbucks parking lot on the corner didn't think it was too funny as he lit the gumbals and pulled the guy over.

Made my morning!

Depends on if he had insurance or not.

hahaha, he was kidding around. Some punk did throw a rock at his car ... he took care of it the manly way. That's all I'm saying ... Red_Zed is no pushover

If that's what you think than you really don't deserve to drive a z....

If someone is riding my rear too close for comfort, I tap the brakes very briefly to let them know that I'm going to slow down. Once they adjust to my speed, I downshift from 6th to 3rd or 4th depending on my speed and let the Z slow down a bit more via engine brake (no brake lights). Invariably, they won't take notice, and as soon as I see their front end dip when they hit the brakes, I gun it and put some distance between us. It rarely takes more than a couple of those for them to back off for good - they hardly ever want to lead faster than me anyway.

I had some dewshnuts flashing a bright light from inside their jeep after i passed them. It was bright enough to annoy me even through my rear view mirror..jerks.

parked at work yesterday, and so of course, what with it being my new car and all, I parked in the middle of 4 empty spots. Next thing you know, a fullsized F-350 rolls up and almost parks ON my passenger door!

I promply moved my car over a few spots while he gave me a dirty look
