Do any 370Z drivers "wave" at each other?

so many 350 owners hate us 370 owners, I always want to yell " I used to own a 350!"

I gotta say its the opposite. I get way more 350z luv than 370z dudes. Z34 male drivers out here swear on themselves like they're driving a semi-exotic. lol. I try to show love but most dudes got there head too far up there azz to even realize it anyway. I get a lot of female Z driver love... whether they're in the Z31-32-33-34. They always show luv. And they're the only ones who matter.

I take chix approval over sausage approval any day.

And they are prolly yelling in their heads "I wish I had a 370z!"

but yeah the 350 owners I don't really respond to much, and I think that irks them a lot. O well. Im doing me you do you.

I always bump the highbeams at other Zs.. more times than not I'll get a response back.

I always try to look for acknowledgement, but only once have I ever gotten anything. I rode by another white 370z on the interstate, the other owner looked admiringly at my car, so I honked my horn quickly at him. Other than that, I've never even seen another 370z driver look my way. I'm always looking and then end up like

when they don't even see me! I guess I'm just a car guy, so I'm constantly aware of what other cars I'm around

Personally it doesn't matter what kind of car you drive, should never wave at someone else who is driving the same car as you do.

Please explain yourself because this makes no sense. You obviously have not been in the Z community long enough to understand that the WAVE, FLASH, etc. is a part of the Z car culture.

Its a part of gearhead culture... All motorists with the same or cool cars or people who like cool cars wave or nod or something. And bikers give each other a signal too

DEpointfive0 · 09-24-2012, 04:12 PM

I wave to all 370Z's and I usually get a pretty good response, but most 350Z drivers just stare at me, so either I don't wave or give a small nod or something, lol

danegrey · 09-24-2012, 06:07 PM

i wave, give the thumbs up, not only to Z's but to anyone that drives a special car....
got a nod from the R8 driver, wave's/smiles from lot of different makes....

Kingbaby · 09-24-2012, 06:09 PM

I just eye the fcuk out of you 370Z drivers...cause I hate you all...

Kingbaby · 09-24-2012, 06:29 PM

maybe he's getting at it may be distracting?

:dunno:

EmpireDude · 09-25-2012, 03:57 AM

I've waved to and been waved at by plenty of 350z drivers in my 350z. The couple 370z's I've seen usually are keen on my driving a Z car too. Part of why I love the Z Car/community!

Strangler · 09-26-2012, 01:11 PM

I certainly don't wave or anything unless someone else waves at me first. I don't think the Z has a close community like the Motorcycles or the Jeeps. I know that most of the time Motorcycles do their wave thing and the same for Jeeps. As for the Z, I don't think the people really care to be honest.
