why are most Z drivers a bunch of D-bags? I mean i'll admit I drive like a a** sometimes but regardless... most of the Z drivers i come across seem like old men who would rather drive their automatic nismo in the slow lane. I never seem to come across anyone who is genuinely passionate about their car like i may be.. its frustrating. Makes me miss my b6 audi a4... at least there was more enthusists driving them * END dumb Rant*

I don't find that to be a problem when things open up and it's pretty safe.
Your probably just don't know how to incite them.

I don't fully understand your rant. You are mad at other owners because they don't drive fast like you?

It's rare spotting other Z's around here. If you want to wave at other cars every day, should have gotten a WRX/STi

I've been to a few of the group events. But as far as friendly, neighborhood Z spottings, I just wish there was more activity in the San Francisco/Peninsula areas. Most of the Z/G events are in the South Bay.

There's got to be more Z's and G's outside of the South Bay. Where is everyone hiding?

Why are you mad that you don't run into enthusiasts? Make meeting them that much better. You should have been on the forum back in 2009-2010, this forum was great then...
