This is just me, but this is the same thing I see with posers in the motorcycle community I ride in. I've been riding for over 20 years and I've come to enjoy many different makes and models. It's about NOT fitting in when you buy exclusive styles; rather than seeing yourself at every stop light. I hate it when HD "bikers" ride up and give me a thumbs up on my scoot until they realize its not a HD; its a honda VTX. Then they get pissed when I blow by them without even shifting gears; (1800cc's). To me, I don't care what kind of motorcycle or car you drive, as long as you drive! When I see posers bashing some dudes ride, I think, "this is why I hate so many clubs." I'd drive anything someone put in front of me to learn more about it and come to understand WHY they like theirs ride. I get all kinds. In fact, this morning on my ride in, I saw a 240 that looked like it was a Work In Progress. Still ran great and sounded sweet. Now, I'm not a big fan of the stock 240's, however, this guy did a great job on it so far. Knowing how much work goes into modifications ($ and time) I can appreciate his mod's on what seems like a small budget (just guessing only based on his appearance). However, I've seen some great Honda's, some great Ponies and others that I'd love to get to know. IMO, if you're doors are closed to just one brand, you’re a damn poser and might as well own a trailer queen. These are usually the inexperienced douc bags that talk all kinds of **** at the car shows... just stay away from 'em and enjoy what you got to its fullest. These are generally people who want you to be JUST LIKE them instead of being an individual. Be yourself and drive the Z. It’s a great car. Ya know, sometimes I win a race, sometimes I lose it. This car isn't the best (IMO) for straight line racing, but in the turns, I'm going to at least catch up or leave you behind. At the end of the day, enjoy the fact that you and someone else’s got to share the passion for hot rods. I think people are surprised when I congratulate them at the next light if they win. Hey, even if I win (that time) I try to pay them respect for all their hard work. You never know...next week that car that lost to you, could blow your doors off.

I think thats out dated now. "Keep your friends close and eliminate your enemies" works better for me. :tup:

Is it just me or does the BRZ look a lot like the Genesis coupe?

kenchan 07-05-2012 01:42 PM

next time just ask them which one's their cars and smirk at them, shut the door and drive off.

Mustang owner was probably a redneck. When I think mustang these days, I think retired person or redneck.

Which part of NOLA you from? I live on the westbank (Marrero), but usually drive all over the city. I actually havent seen any pearl whites like mine but a couple of silvers and black 370's. :tiphat:

A coworker called my Z a rice rocket immediately after seeing it. "
Oh you know.. its lowered and its loud so it definitely puts it in that bracket.." I wanted to punch him in the face.. only if my deputy program manager wasn't there.. :icon23:

blackcherry20 07-06-2012 12:25 PM

Shouldnt bother you guys-anything worthy is worth talking about-obviously the Z IS or it would get 0 comments-good or bad! If i see something i dont like i dont waste my time talking trash-acknowledement gives creedence-just sayin'!

Nothing wrong with a rocket. There fast. ;)

How can anyone driving a BRZ give someone else crap for driving a "rice rocket"?
