Peoples Reaction to your Z
Yeah, I was just curious to hear what some people had to say about your Z?
I'll start
All the girls I know find it sexy as hell. When I give them a ride, they just giggle and do the OMG thing and hold on to the O-**** handle.
All the dude friends just tell me the car feels like a roller coaster.
I cant wait till I have money to pump out mods =)

All my guy friends said they like it, but always ask why don't i get a G35 coupe.
My female freinds either said that the car is CUTE or very nice.
At the traffic lights, I notice that people usually looks at it. It weird, 'cause the car is already been out in the market for almost 3 years already. So, I was like "...C'mon the Z is not that new anymore,.."

My Father In Law still thinks it's a Lexus SC400. That's a compliment in his mind. I keep telling him it's way better than a Lexus SC400 to me. It looks, drives, and makes me feel better than any Lexus I have ever driven. I guess I'm going to have to tatoo a Z on his forehead.
I get lots of stares. When I look back and wave they act like they don't see me. I think people don't want to be seen staring and pointing. I just smile or laugh and cruise off cause I don't have anything to prove. Generally, they make sure not to pass me so that they can get one more look. So, sometimes I go real slow for 150' or so and then go into warp drive.
Ah, I like giving a little show every once in a while.
It puts a smile on there face that I can see for a 1/8 mile or so.
Got to love this car. I like the looks.
But, I love driving it way more than I like the looks it gets.

I had an @hole last week ask me if it was a Hyundai? I asked what he drove. He shut up. In 2003-(early)2004 it got a lot of respect, but now too many people see it as a ricer. WTF?

I can't tell you how many times people want to pour out their Z stories to me. Old guys who used to have a 240 or 280. I tell them it's a fantastic car and that Nissan really recaptured the spirit of the original: a fun sports car that the average person can afford.
One security guard where I work was telling me he'd had a 280Z and then a Porsche 944 and then a 300ZX. He loved the Z way more than the Porsche (he'd put a turbo on his Z and couldn't stop raving about it).

Yeah, I can testify to that. I owned a '88 944 Turbo in the day.
I like the 350Z a lot more. I like the way it looks. I like the idea it looks something like a 911 with a front engine, no VW whine, and should last forever. I also like the fact that I don't have to pay Porsche everytime sometime goes wrong. Porsches are always breaking down if you haven't owned one. I could fix most stuff.... but when you have to pay Porsche......you better get a loan.
This 350Z is way more fun for less cash than the 944 was in it's day. Not to mention the 50K price that came with a 944 Turbo. That would be over 70K in today's dollars.
I have owned six Z in my lifetime and have loved them all. Not so say I haven't liked my muscle cars of late. Just the Z seems so much more of a refined sports car.

I usually find young boys love it, pre-teens especially, most girls don't know what it is, but I had two elderly ladies in a car park tell me it was a "beautiful car"
I went to Brands Hatch race circuit in it to watch some racing, 2 young nippers kept taking pictures of it and even got their mum to stand next to it so they could take a photo, she looked very slightly embarrased, especially as my wife was still sat in the car and I was just in front find it very amusing.
