Do you guys get haters while driving a Z ?

onzedge · 10-14-2012, 01:40 PM

One time I was driving my 370 and a guy in a Chevy Cobalt pulled alongside. I happened to make eye contact with him and he flipped me off -- so I blew him a kiss and he sped away with a very odd look on his face.

Pay no nevermind to others on the road -- It just ain't worth it.

No haters here. I've owned 3 Z cars, a Vette, a Scubie WRX, and I have never come across any haters.

I did have an old dude in a new BMW 650 GT (think upscale Malibu MAXX) do an impromptu test of acceleration and speed along side with me yesterday. But I wouldn't call that hating. Kind of funny though because the guy and the car really threw me off!

I love it!

Do that all the time. Drives them crazy, because it is non-confrontational and they are looking to piss you off.

OP< I think you are looking for this thread

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

So far 350 guys seem to be the only ones that act like D-Bags to me.

I used to get tailgaters all the time. Especially Ford F150's.

Save the hate for Hyundai's.

Haters while driving?

Hell, I can't post on a forum about the Z without encountering haters

Zero issues here. I've gotten waves, thumbs up, and propositioned by a couple early 20's girls (it only happened once and I'm married so it doesn't matter). I really haven't gotten hate from people.

If someone took the time to turn around and give me the bird I would probably just laugh. They obviously have issues and let them be.
