Does Your G37 Instigate Road Rage???
#61
I've had my G37S coupe for about two months. Whenever I drive it anywhere - I seem to instigate road rage in other drivers in spite of the fact that I don't drive it aggressively. The incidents range from just dirty looks to dangerous tailgating and sometimes worse. I drive my wife's Acura TSX the same way in the same areas without incident...
Some people!

I tend to get that from time to time and I normally ignore them, because its a waste of time and effort,I bought this car to enjoy driving it not wrecking it for some ego/jealousy trip of others. And when they see my little sticker G on my passenger window they tend to leave me alone,,,Oh its not a G37 sticker,,,it my GLOCK sticker! lol

i agree with alot of the posters on this thread, that being said i have had tailgaters,motorcycles want to race, and my ex wife make shady comments,every stop light a honda wants to race. lol i just try my hardest to ignore the dumb stuff, but sometimes i just drop the hammer and give them the g"s best.

I live in AZ where any idiot can have a concealed weapon legally. Dark window tint and basically pretend like you're oblivious that they're pissed. I don't engage anyone about anything on the road, they usually have much less to lose than I do. That and half of the people don't have insurance and/or drunk. I wouldn't call my driving conservative at all, but I go out of my way to avoid being an a%^^ on the road.

This happened to me once... I was on the Freeway in the far right lane approaching an exit ramp, plenty if room behind me. But this dummy in a Seabring came rushing by me and cut me off. I hit my horn and they slammed their brakes. The ramp had two right turn lanes, I got in the one in the left, and she got in the one to the right. At the light I looked at her and shook my head. She gave ne the finger.
The light changed and we both turned. My next turn was a left turn and apparently so was hers. She signaled to turn in front of me. At this point I have reverted back to 10 years old and I close the gap in front of me. She lays on the horn and gets behind me and turns her highbeams on (again there was plent of room behind me)
I turn into my parking lot. She turns into my parking lot.
Once we pulled in, I turn one way and she turns the other. I park behind the building in the employee lot. The lobby area has two entrances- one from the employee lot another from the visitor lot. We both walk in from opposite doors at the same time. I press the button for the elevator for the 3rd floor. She is staring at the directory. The elevator door opens and I get in. She turns to try to catch the elevator but the door is closing and I let it close on her.
I get off the elevator and go to my office. I get a phone call telling me my 1:30 interview candidate is here. I walk out to the reception area and guess who is there...
So I escort her to the conference room and introduce myself. I say to her "I think I saw you on the Freeway and in the Parking lot". She is visibly nervous now and says "no I don't think so" I say:" Red Seabring?" She said "no I drive a Honda". I just look at her for about 10 seconds, then I proceed with the interview as if nothing happened. After the interview I escort her to the reception area to finish up her application.
I ask a coworker to go with me outside for a quick break. We find the red Seabring and stand near it while we chat about the incident. Then guess who comes walking outside. As she opens the door to her car, I say "nice Honda"... LOL

Yes, I have been telling people how this car pisses people off for some reason.
I have had my door keyed real bad, it said "G35x!"
I came out of the gym and someone with an older volvo parked about 8" from one side of me.
I have had people carelessly bang my doors. I get the looks while driving, sometimes girls talking to me for no reason.
