Something I notice (feel) being a new G owner

I have been a jeep Wrangler owner for a long time. And any Wrangler owner knows about the Jeep wave. It's like a small group that Jeep owners know. Similar to Harley people.

So, now that I own a G, I have a similar feeling in the G, but not like I want to wave at other G owners. It's a weird feeling about 350z's. For some reason I feel like my car is better, and know they feel the same. It's strange.

Is this a normal sentiment among G owners? and what's up with that?

I like the G better then the Z for looks, and the Z better then the G for perfomance.

All and all performance is so rediculously close that I like the G better.

I bet you're glad you got rid of the JEEP. Haha.

Bunch of my buddies have them and they are nothing but problems... and major ones, like busted transfer cases from 100% pure road driving(not in 4WD obviously), transmissions dying, and blown seals on the motors.

Welcome to the G Club!

I never waved at the 4 door jeeps, unless they were jacked up or had the top off.

There are now about 4 G35 Coupes in my town. One is owned by a hot chick and her's is also an IP Coupe. We wave at each other ever time we pass.

haha, good thought, but we have already talked a few times. She was in the drive thru at Wendy's one evening when my wife and I came out. She seemed like a really cool chick.

I wish there was a G wave around here. It seems like all the people who are driving a G35 in my area don't seem anywhere remotely being an enthusiast.

Looks like they just bought an entry level luxury car just because it's nice.

Better than a 350/370? Hardly. Different maybe, but not better. One could easily argue the Nissan is the better car.

G better than the Z? Z better than the G.

At what?

By the way, the Z wave only requires one finger.

Oh, and do you guys wave at people who drink the same kind of energy drink as you? (Kidding.)

I'm tempted to go over to My350Z and post this.

Then I'd sit back and watch the hilarity that ensues.
