This afternoon at about 4:00 pm I was taking my daughter to dance class and a desert platinum sedan, driving in the opposite direction waved as he passed. I used to aknowledge other G35 drivers, but never really got a wave back, so in my surprise tonight I didn't wave back at this fella.
Eeks, sorry mate..if your a member on this forum and happen to read this I apologise, you took me by surprise..

BTW, it was Washington Street, going West in Grayslake. I was driving the DG sedan.

 

I think most don't even realize they saw the same car, some snobby people do drive G's, or LOL, maybe they just came from the dealer and had to have new brakes, and decided they didn't really like their G anymore!

 

We have a thread about snobby G35 drivers on the South Fourm. It seems most G35 drivers are too snobby to recognize other G35 drivers. Go figure.
If you are a G35Drivers.com member, you would probabbly wave/flash/peace sign back. If they don't recognize another G35, they must be old and rich and
be in the car by mistake!

 

When I had a Fiat 124 Spyder we always waved at each other, and there were not a whole lot of us. With the top down it was easy to give and see a wave. In sedans with A/C and windows up (and some woth tints) it may be harder to see a wave. I've tried on occasion, but didn't get a response. I'll try again. There are a lot more G35s than there were 124 Spyders too.

 

Hmmm...I always have people "waving" at me. Do you really think it is because they like the car? :P

 

Hi, Im fairly new to the forum, Im just about to pick up my '05 g35x in about an hour. Im trading in my wrx. Thats one thing Ill miss with the subaru, is that fellow wrx owners acknowledge each other as they drive by or with you. When I was on the cobbtuning forum, We got stickers that we could put on our windsheild, is there anything like this for this forum??

hahaha , he couldn't have been one of us........for sure he would have waived..
I waive anyway...I guess I'm not what you would call 'cool'..in any case there's still so few G's here 'up north', I waive at anything 'Infiniti' : all G's, I's, Q's even QX's and dealerships....lol.
We're so wacked up here I waived at an Infiniti dealership the other day and all the people in the showroom cheered as I passed.

Keep waiving bro. The ones that have a 'heartbeat' will reciprocate.

When I first started shopping for a new car, I didn't initially consider the Infiniti G35. In fact, I felt I rarely saw any around my area (Long Island) and thought there was a reason why it wasn't so popular. When I did finally buy one, I saw the G's all around me!

I used to get excited when I saw one and usually pulled up behind or around to the side. Just wanted to flash the high sign, great car, yadda yadda. But never even got a turn of the head or a glance out the side. Especially from the coupes - maybe they figured an old guy in a G35 sedan wasn't worth the energy.

I get a better response from the Acuras, BMWs, and Civics - that is before I drop them...

 

"When I did finally buy one, I saw the G's all around me!"

It's definitely an unassuming car. You don't really notice it until you stop and pay attention to it - from there, I've yet to find anyone that has anything but positive things to say. Most of the positive comments I draw are on the color (tb). To be honest, alot of people I drive around also rave about the sound/clarity of the base stereo. Believe that. I like the base stereo, but never thought it would draw as much attention as it does.

 

gthirtyfizzlex... they were selling "g35driver.com ______ (northeast, southeast, midwest, etc) member" stickers a while ago. the sale thread should be a sticky in your regional forum, at least that's how it is in the midwestern one.

if i see a G, i do the wave or head nod and smile in return. i usually get more "hellos" from the G coupes though. i find a lot of sedans here are busy - cell phone, passengers, etc.

 

That's because you are such a likeable young lady Christine! I'd wave, and even honk the horn a couple of times!
