Smile stuck-up/tiff-neck G owner in the bay area?

Hello guys,

I'm a G35 coupe owner.

When I see another G driver on the road, I usually wave or smile at the driver, just trying to say "hi".

However, in more than A YEAR, not a single G driver (of all ages, mostly male) smile or wave back, especially around Santa Clara.

Those G drivers usually put on serious faces, looking dead ahead. Picture those agents in "The Matrix" driving G.

Is there a better way to GREET fellow G owner???????

I know that a couple of years ago, the G was fairly unique. But we don't have to be hater just because others appreciate the G styling.

Can we all be friends ????????????????

I always look over to other G's but I very rarely get a look back. Seems most people are lost in thought when they're driving.

My explanation on why people look away is they're afraid of confrontation since they don't want to race.

I've always waved to G-coupe drivers in Texas and most would wave back or smile. One guy even rolled down his window and gave me a thumb-up. I guess people are just much friendlier here in Texas

If I saw someone in a G waving I would definately wave. But yeah, here in the bay people are calous and are quick to blow other people off. Also, your right, they are afraid of confrontation around here, sh*t is crazy sometimes.
