I believe I will be doing the same thing. At idle, its the best sounding car in the world. Anything above 1000 rpms and my ears bleed. lol.

But from the other point of view (just being a devils advocate) - just because you drive the same car that I do, does that automatically make you my best buddy? Do I have to wave at every person that drives a similar car to mine?

Not saying I feel that way. Just presenting the other side of the argument.

I miss the Z scene! I went to ZCON 2010 and the people I met there were awesome. The whole experience is what cemented my love of the Z heritage. I currently drive a 2014 Mustang and as much as I enjoy the car, I find the community to be lacking the camaraderie of the Z community. Looking forward to the next gen Z and hopefully my ticket back. Denver's local Z chapter is pretty cool as well.

I know a few Z owners personally that are some of the coolest/humble people. I know that not everyone is a douchey owner. I think that I'm pretty approachable and would be able to strike up a conversation with other enthusiasts around me, but I guess some hold to themselves. I wish I got some pics of the faces these people make though, if facial expressions could be translated it's almost like "Why are you talking to me?" and then "Want to see how fast I can go?" but oh well Nismo89 is right, to each their own.

Not saying you gotta be friends with everyone but it's just weird that this has happened on more than a couple occasions

Wish you had pics too. I always wondered what JungleZ looked like

OP, must be bad luck, the few that I've met in person have been very friendly and approachable. If you saw them on the road driving, don't take it negatively as they may have been focusing on driving or their minds were preoccupied on something else.

I've encountered a handful of Z owners, that yeah are the nicest/most modest people out there (usually meet them at car shows) I'm just talking about these few people that act like I offended them
