350 hate wearing off?

zZSportZz · 07-28-2009, 11:30 AM

LOL...the last meet I went to up at Altered...the 350 guys stayed away from me like I had the plague. The only one that talked to me was when my car was on the dyno...he felt the need to tell me how the 350 looked sooo much better than the 370 and he would never buy one.

Who does that at a meet? Honestly?

Even if you don't like what somebody has, you still respect it and go on your merry way. You dont stop to tell them how shitty you think their ride is. Thats when I lost all respect for 350 owners. Maybe it was just one guy giving everyone a bad rep, but still.

it is bound to happen with a new model, like I mentioned it happened to me when I first got the 350Z and had the same reactions from 300ZX owners, I just killed them with kindness and compliments about the 300ZX and they eventually came around, just go to meets and make a point to meet the people

Respect is respect anywhere you go. Don't sweat the intimidated, just be a leader and enjoy an already too short life!

That meet looked great! I am always floored by just how many different front ends grace the Z32's. Still one of my favorites (even though it's a fat pig) LOL J/K!!

I must agree.....you and I were the only 370Z's up there and I only spoke with you and of course the guys at Altered when the car was on the dyno. And I remember you and I walked around taking photos of all the 350's and giving them props about their cars. I saw two people walk over and peek thru the window of my Z....and after they finished looking they looked around like "Whew, I hope nobody saw me actually looking interested in this 370!"

Great pics

Imo I could care less if anyone liked or disliked what I drive. I never seek anyones approval, except maybe the wifes.

So, complimenting others for having a nice car is "ghey?"

fastjimmy · 07-28-2009, 02:18 PM

To each his own dreamer, I dont wave to anyone nor do i expect anyone to wave to me or give me some ghey thumbs up, maybe I'm old school..

You guys are starting to sound like the Corvette crowd. Wave/no wave, LS2/LS3 etc...

I give respect when I think it is deserved, a Z06 driving by, no, but a nicely upgrade Z06 which I find tasteful, yes. It is all based on what you see and like and what you think deserves a compliment.

2theextreme · 07-28-2009, 02:40 PM

Seems the local police in my area love to give me props.....not sure that's a good thing or not!

No I mean within the Corvette community itself. Many Corvette owners get offended when a fellow Corvette owner doesn't wave at them. Then there is a group of Corvette owners who could care less about waving or whether they get waived at. What I meant was you guys are starting to sound just like them.

When I drive a bus I wave at other bus drivers and they wave at me. Its quite the community you know. Haha if only they knew it wasn't even my bus or that I don't even drive a bus for a living. I just hope there never comes a day I'm pulled up at a light and the bus driver beside me finds out my 24 passenger with the short wheel base is stock.

Regardless I get free waves out of the deal all the time - suckers!
