350 hate wearing off?
 

In the past week I have been waved at by 4 people in 350's. Maybe they are finally accepting the 370?

We joined forces to hate the 370 nismo




























Kidding

We Need to keep it up there breaking down!

I still get mostly dirty looks from 350 drivers. But a few with modded ones have been cool.

go to Z meets and meet the people in the Z's, we had the same issue with 300ZX owners 7 years ago, the common appreciation of Z's will win out

serves them right







...j/k

Jealousy

x2^

They are probably older, wiser drivers that have no ties to "my350z.co.."

they're probably DE owners. It's those HR ppl that.....arrr.

nope, just dropped by the "other" site and them HR peeps are still in denial :roflpuke2:
whatever, just let them think whatever they want, cuz at the end of the day VQ37VHR > VQ35HR :owned:

i like how they try to make a statement by putting "350Z HR" instead of "350Z"

also i just noticed they call our engine the VQ37HVR :roflpuke2: :nutswinger:

I have not had any problems with people in Illinios I have been to some ChicagoZ meets and everyone loves it


DAN

here we are all getting along, a 350Z HR, 2 370Z's, my DE in the end and even a DE rev up in the back :)

But don't forget that this is what it is all about and why we are all in Z's

ive always loved the Z community...you guys are tightly knit, yet are more open and even compliment cars other than the Z..makes me feel so warm inside..when i check out other forums..i.e. camaro5 or clubwrx...their "vs." sections are pretty redundant and unrealistic claims.."the camaro owns all"..tho there is some hate with the 350 and 370...it is bearable..the 370z is just the new kid on the block..G35 owners would say that i have an ugly car and its much slower...i just shrug it off cuz I know they are pulling those statements out of their behinds

Those were great pics. I would love to go to one of those meets, if nothing else just for the fact that they are at a Sonic, and we don't have any of those near me. I love Sonic.

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.

LOL yeah SONICS FTW

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!! :tup:

Great pics :tup:

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

LOL yes it is a pig but I still love it, every time I think about selling my 300ZX TT I change my mind, it looks great

aint that the truth

Westpak, I'm glad to see I'm not the only original O3 owner who still has his 03 350Z. Your car still looks good! Hopefully before long I'll have a 370Z to go along with my 350Z.

I also agree with Westpak. All Zs are nice. I don't hate any of them. I like them all. :driving:

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!" :bowrofl:

Why do most of you feel the need to wave, can you imagine if all cars, trucks, bike's, ho's started to wave..wtf, and if they dont wave back means there jelous...cmon! are you all so insecure you need to be acknowledged...

WTF?
Who said anything about waving? Only time I wave is if it is another 370 that I have never seen, most of the time if I drive in the same direction as another Z owner I just do a head nod and move along. Other option for many is the universal thumbs up for "nice car/ride/etc."

thumbs up is also very ghey..

:ugh2:
So, complimenting others for having a nice car is "ghey?"

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..

^^ Lighten up man, you should find some 'joy' when your car gets props.

:tup: :tup: x 2 for you! :p

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

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.

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

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. :tup:

Ah, well Corvette owners are just a bunch of old, bald, fat white guys anyways. ;)

There are statiscs that say Texas holds the most obese people per capita...

Looking around my office I might agree. :rolleyes:

I wonder if Fat men in Texas wave to each other acknowledging there girth..

That would be considered exercise to lift ones hand that high, so no. ;)
