Some people like cars because they're car people. Others like them because it's the trendy thing to do. To these people, a nice car is little more than a fancy watch or nice pair of shoes.

Both of the guys that lost to me using their evos have upgraded to other cars. One of them just purchased a red BMW M3 and the other one got an 07 350z.
Just wondering if you seriously believe that? Did you stop them and take a poll, or handout surveys to each evo/sti you encounter.

I wonder if they are thinking of the same thing when I pass by a 350Z driver that stares at me. Most time I look to see what kind of reaction I get from them...do they want to run....or do they have the deer in headlight look.

Very high class. Not rice at all. So "gangsta" driving around wanting people to "Run" you. This is what separates 350z drives from STI and EVO guys. The maturity level and again that class I mentioned earlier.

Are you shitting me!!!! You have the mentality of many BMW owner's, without the car. Get off your high horse and come down to reality. I drive my lancer the way it suppose to be driven. Most of my racing are done at the track. Class has nothing to do with what you drive. Class is rarely detected...if at all through a computer screen. We are talking about 30k vehicles, not porsches or ferraris' here. I am reporting the type of reactions that I see when passing most 350Z. I could careless why you chose a 350Z, but you sir are smoking so crack if you think it stands a chance when compared the evo/sti.

You can call me a ricer all you want. I am what I eat...I'm Asian..hello. I least I dont have delusion of grandeur about my car.

You stated you have driven evos, stis, 350Zs, and Porsche Cayman....and the 350Z suited you best...are you sure it wasn't all you could afford?

Maturity level? Ok you truly are an idiot. Cause I know a 350z owner right now that roasts his clutch on the daily. There is nothing about a 350z that says class. In any case, comparing a 350z to an Evo, YOU my "friend" are outclassed in every aspect but the slight luxury options you have. Sure, they look nice, but I love the way my Evo looks. I love how 350z's look even better in my rear view mirror. And it's funny you claim lack of maturity for racing. Aren't you the idiot whom just stated earlier that you have beaten many Evos and STIs from a roll, from a dig, or whatever? So, I take it you are a classless ricer as well. Your car is slow, it's an automatic, and the G35 is better than what you drive.

I assume you did all of this ^ at the track? U can race from a roll at the track? Oh yeah, you're wreaking with "class"

If the original poster was in it for class, wouldn't he just get a G35 Coupe instead of a gay 350Z?

exactly....In fact, I don't understand why anyone would ever buy a 350Z over a G35 coupe.
