The only time I have ever had Mustang envy was yesterday. I saw an early Shelby GT-500 and a '71 Mach 1 traveling down the highway. Both were beautiful cars.

That's the point of my post. I was out driving enjoying the day and my Z.
when this guy wanted to get into a xick measuring contest on a crowded
interstate. and he's going off blowing his horn reving up and doing fly bys
acting like king mustang. i realize you can't blame the car. but it just seems for me its always beat up mustangs or toothless hillbillies in ford f150's
with 22in rims wanting to jack with you.

"anyone ever heard,"how fast you had it up to" or whats on the speedo"
like that makes a difference. heck my wifes rogue has a 120 on it and i doubt
it would reach the 90 mph mark.

Well if that's what happened there is no denying that particular guy was a douche. Honestly, I don't know how much different things are for you guys in Texas... I was there once and vowed never to come back. :p

Since you're pretty good at generalizations, you should put together a list of typical behaviors of drivers of different cars. Lets start with:

370Z- american and german car converts due to preliminary high praise reviews. so paper number monkeys and girls. I agree:ugh2:
350Z- jdm fanatics car is driven mostly by F&F wannabes, hence the highest single vehicle death rate of any car on the road. Some smaller percentage is "so jdm they sleep on the right side of the bed"
Camaro- people who still live in the 60's and transformer heads.
Mustang- mixed bag of enthusiasts and wannabe dbags.broadest cross-section of any car listed here-- everybody from high school girls, to track-every-weekend guys.
C5 Corvette- competitive on tracksright. there are more track-competitive guys running c5 vettes than there are gold-chain-wearing middle-aged men.
C6 Corvette- enthusiastssee above.
Buick LeSabre- Sunday drivers 7 days a weekd.
G35-jdm fanatics so jdm you sleep on the right side of the bed? Most G35 drivers have no clue what Just Dumb Motherfcukers even stands for, much less why people spend more on rims than they did on the car. The cast majority of drivers are middle-aged men who want an "I've arrived" car that didn't want to go German
G37- wannabes:ugh2:
Mercedes C Class- bad drivers
Mercedes E Class-worse drivers
Mercedes S Class- complete douche bags
Maxima SV Sport- wanted a G but didn't want to spend the extra cash. The type of drivers that could've bought an altima 2.5sl instead because they truly don't need the VQ power.please come to Zdayz so you can get schooled by the Maximas
F150- they think they own the road.wat
Ram- normal dudes.WAT
Silverado- bad driversWat
Each individual variant of the Porsche 911 (available for MY 2011)no word here?
Fisker Karma- eco nuts with small penises
Elise- not sure.notsureifsrs
Exige- track nuts
Lincoln Town Car- 80 year olds that are a danger on the road or nyc livery cabs.
1948 Tucker Sedan- future lowrider

I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your American cars and I realized that they're not actually sports cars. Every sports car on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but your Mustangs do not. They move to an area and they multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way they can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Mustangs are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and Z's are the cure.

All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I turn like you wanna turn, I am fast, capable, and most importantly, I am torquey in all the ways that you are not. --5.Durden


SPOILER ALERT: At the end of the movie, the Mustang is ACTUALLY THE Z's ALTER-EGO

If you dont have time to watch the entire thing at least watch the last 30 seconds...

I haven't gotten any Mustang guys envy yet. I do get alot of Ferrari and Lambo guys envying my car though. Those guys are probably wondering why they spent sooo much money on a car when they could have just bought a 370Z for a tenth of the price with the same great looks and slightly less performance. 370Z FTW! Greatest car ever!
