lol.. I mean I kinda knew him and I know he was joking a little, so I let it slide. But I constantly get "Nice 350 man". But it stopped bothering me now. As long as they are complimenting, i have no issues with it. But it's weird how I will get respect or thumbs up from cars that'll hang with me like Mustang GT, WRX STI, Lancer Evo, Camaro SS etc. Never a bad attitude. But every time I stop next to a riced out Honda Honda civic that has like 140 hp, they always talk crap. I was Called a "pu$$y" few months ago because I didn't street race this Honda Civic at a street light

I agree with the honda thing, i don't understand how their minds work I've never met or talked to a riced out Honda owner. You would think they would be inspired by the Z? Are the jealous? Are their social skills are horribly broken as their modding ability? Who Knows.

Then a couple episodes later (forget which one) he was buzzing around the track in a dark blue one (I don't think it was a Black Edition...) and he was pissing and moaning about how boring it is, and how "detached" you are from the driving experience, when he said the opposite a few weeks earlier. Guess he'd just rather spend $300k on an Aston with 150 fewer horsepower.

Thank you gentlemen.

I've gotten the eclipse comment when i owned a 350. Usually i get the " i wouldn't have paid that " alot of ricer comments due to alot of rednecks with lifted trucks around my town lol. It's obvious that many people just wish they owned a z and find a need to hate on it.

bigsix · 12-22-2012, 05:25 PM

I'd say some of the nicest and best-performing Japanese cars are made by Nissan (Infiniti).

IMHO

100% Jealousy/Hate

I've seen it with my own eyes...my car is parked at a car meet...looking from far I saw countless people walk by it, check it out, drool, take pictures...

Don't I see one of the lookiloo's on the street after and I get a screwed up face and the typical ricer "fly by" right after as I'm cruising.

At the end of the day...I love the Z because I don't "have" to prove myself to these lesser cars, I can hold my head high...they know the deal deep inside lol.

Edit: Not that there's anything wrong with that.. sorta kinda maybe.

This is F'in funny!

That is when I give it a little rev and they hear this nice...waa-pssssshh sound and they will always get over one lane instantly.

I was taken back and in shock since I'm usually getting compliments and the only thing that I could come back with was "ummm......0-60 in about 4.7 sec. He chuckled after I said it but I later wondered if anyone else got insulted for having a Z. I'm sure this type of response stems from jealousy more than anything else. Anybody else get a negative remark about their Z?

Deserves a equal response such as " Your Wife likes it."

b1adesofcha0s · 12-20-2012, 08:18 AM

Hmm usually from my friends/cousins, but they're only joking. They'll call it a piece of sh1t and then ask me if they can drive it right after

The only real insult I can think of was this from this guy who said "that car's not that fast". I was stopped at a light and he was passing by in a pick up truck going the opposite way. I was just like "wtf where did that come from?"
