Angry You know who you are!



It's guys like this that get our cars keyed in parking lots, or worse.

Last night driving on Old Banff Coach Road, some dillhole in a red G35 sedan (dented rear bumper, probably a 2003.5 or 2004) pulls out onto the busy street WITHOUT stopping at the stop sign. The car then proceeds west on OBCR driving in both lanes and changing lanes indescriminately without use of a signal light.

I could just hear what everyone is saying in their cars. "Typical Infiniti driver, think they own the road. I hate people that drive those things."

If your on this forum, smarten up, butthead. Nothing is worth getting yourself or someone else killed.

If not, sorry for ranting!

Oooo, hatin' your own people...

I don't think this kind of behaviour is isolated to any particular brand driver. Unfortunately, or at least we'd know which ones to look out for.

I've seen them in pretty well every brand; size, shape, colour and sex of person.

Yeah.... It's amazing though;
If you get some fool driving like a dikhead, how well you remember what he/she was driving.
especially a prem. brand.

Sounds like that driver could have been drunk...

I totally agree. Usually for me it's minivan drivers (and sometimes BMW, sorry intg8r ). Must be for others too because my co-workers van got keyed for no apparent reason. And one winter, I overheard a couple of ladies getting out of their minivans complaining about 4x4 drivers going too fast. I was getting out of a 4x4.

The problem being that we all project that hate for one person to everyone that drives the same type of vehicle. And I don't want my car keyed because someone else was a jerk.

hahahahahahaha.........good one Ian......

I think this story goes to prove that there are good and bad drivers in any ride........and sure, these bad eggs can give the brand's owners a bad rep.....

I know stereotyping happens but I don't necessarily think it's justified..........

wgmg35, I can honestly say that that owner probably isn't a member here too....... Most, if not all our guys here are quite responsible, the same as most if not all Bimmer owners are just about bearable........

(just kidding bimmer owners....you know we all love you as much as we do G-drivers)....

^^ Quite right.

Thanks for letting me vent anyway. Of all the G forums I've been too, this one IS the best.

The worst part of this whole story is that some jerk is putting a G in danger! The dented bumper proves he should be driving an old Datsun truck rather than a beautiful Infiniti.

I fear that the prices of used G35 sedans have fallen enough to be attainable by idiot kids.

I fear that by the time prices hit below $20k, G sedans will be the next urban car. The car is "macho" and fast. Would serve the purpose well.

Flame on!

I am feeling the same too... 03 Gs are around that number now... that's why I start to see more and more older Gs with bling bling rims that don't fit the G...
