Do Z owners think they're cool?

If I'm on the freeway, I'm not there to make friends or be distracted while driving. I'm usually in my own world, listening to music and concentrating on the road

If I'm on the freeway, I'm not there to make friends or be distracted while driving. I'm usually in my own world, listening to music and concentrating on the road in front of me. Probably wouldnt hear a beep, or notice someone stalking me on the side. Usually I won't notice u unless u pass me. Also, I kinda feel weird waving at a stranger just because we have the same car. If I was walking in a mall and see someone with the same jacket, I'm not gonna wave and try to be his buddy.

Giving someone a thumbs up is completely different than trying to become friends with someone with the same jacket. It's like a complement

Yea I was just saying how I am on the freeway. Im in no way "too cool for you", heck i dont even rev. On the streets one dude hunted me down(zig zagging through traffic) just to wave to me and I nodded. Another person on opposing traffic just stopped in the road to stare at me (maybe he was looking for a wave or just mad dogging me). Luckily it wasnt the main street and no one rear ended him. I didn't acknowledge and passed him. If all drove recklessly or stopped traffic for no reason, I would rather just not participate for the sake of people around them. In Los Angeles, there's plenty of Z's and ZX's. Can't see myself having to acknowledge them all.

Well you should be able to hear a horn, what if I was honking at you to let you know your dress was hanging out the door?

Also perhaps not the same shirt, but what if you are a sport fan and you saw someone wearing the same team apparel as you? To me it is kind of like that.

I wave when I can. I don't always get a wave back or acknowledgement, but when I do I
