My other vehicle is a '99 silverado. I ALWAYS turn off my lights when I see them shining in the mirrors of another car at stop lights/signs. Since I've been driving my Z, I swear every other vehicle on the road has their high beams on 24/7 lol.

I usually be easy on gas, so when I try to pass someone on the road or HWY, I pass them at a moderate speed.

And always there's these people in those sh!tty low-power sedan gas-up and trying to block me...

I am not sure they do it in purpose or they are driving in their own inner World...

But yes... it's annoying....

i was cruising down the highway and this old beat up miata drove past me and the guy flick me off for no apparent reason, this was during the summer down here in tx, i guess his ac was broken cause he had his windows rolled down and was just too jelly for my ride, minding you that i had my windows rolled up and cruising with a/c blowing in my face lol

Its always the miatas I see on the highway trying to play speedracer.

Got a blocker this morning. Truck of course. Pulled the old "I'm driving slow and mellow" trick, fell back a little. Of course, as predicted, he slowed down to continue his block giving me a nice gap between him and the car in front of me. I put my foot into it and got over to the the exit I needed to take.

What a sucker...

theres this guy with a 300zx non turbo that I see sometimes on my commute to work, try to keep up with me, roasted him. He kind of looked like drake from degrassi anyways he did not know how to drive a manual kept stalling.

He should have done his research on the car before buying and the saddest part is he gave me like/thumbs up when I passed him later.

How many of you guys have had 350z's pull up next to you trying to get you to run? These guys are starting to get annoying. Passed one up tonight on the freeway and he decided to speed up and pull beside me. I paid no attention to him, nor all the other highway racer/stoplight dragsters that try to prove they have a bigger d!ck than I do.

Really 350 guys hate? Thats sad...

I miss the days when I was in my Subaru & we gave "thumbs up" or "peace signs" to every other WRX or STi no matter the year or modification level.

And to get the best reaction from racers, do not look at them or even acknowledge their existence lOl that tends to piss them off for some reason...

I live right outside Ft. Hood military base which is sports car/muscle car galore around here. I've had my share of 350z hate, but it might just be this area as there are a lot of young immature soldiers with fast cars. Like people have mentioned in previous posts, I get a ton of lifted trucks that try to nearly run me off the road when they get a chance. Since my Z isn't a DD, I tend to not even drive it at night anymore, especially on Friday and weekend nights. People are just to dangerous

Several times. Even a civic yesterday. It was a LX model so I backed off.

No issues with 350 guys (& girls) down here. In fact they're one of the best and friendliest out where I'm at. I'm sure there's a douche out there some where but I have not encountered one yet.
