I'm driving today with my top down, enjoying the AZ weather. Biker on a Harley, tatted up and looking like one bad mother... looks at me, nods up, lowers his sunglasses, and says nice ride.

"Is that thing as fast as it looks?"
"Haha yeah."
"I thought so. Damn, that looks better than a Porsche."

Maybe a little extreme but I appreciated the compliment!

Got my first Porsche comment the other day, parked at my parents in a nice neighborhood and one of their neighbors was talking to my dad saying "I saw that real nice Porsche in your driveway the other day" , he says it is a real nice car but it is not a Porsche.

He was just trying to cover up his inside insecurity and "sour grapes" attitude...he really wants a Z.

Feel sorry for the guy...I mean, he is driving a ford.

What can I say I "gave" it to you mom
Boy can she "take" a lot

Give it away give it away give it away now
Give it away give it away give it away now
Give it away give it away give it away now
I can't tell if I'm a king pin or a pauper

What I've got you've got to give it to your mamma
What I've got you've got to give it to your pappa
What I've got you've got to give it to your daughter
You do a little dance and then you drink a little water

What I've got you've got to get it put it in you
What I've got you've got to get it put it in you
What I've got you've got to get it put it in you
Reeling with the feeling don't stop continue

Realize I don't want to be a miser
Confide wisely you'll be the wiser
Young blood is the lovin' upriser
How come everybody wanna keep it like the kaiser

Give it away give it away give it away now
Give it away give it away give it away now
Give it away give it away give it away now
Give it away give it away give it away now


I guess what I'm trying to say is if I got less it's cause I gave it away
But don't worry we re-stock 24x7

Dad, of course you gave it to Mom, but you're drunk. Turn off the computer...and quit surfing the web after you've been drinking.

I get a lot of honks and thumbs up, but I think it has more to do with the plates than the car

EDIT: Off topic but forgot to add that when I got to where I was going there was another 350Z parked at autozone (backwards and a MT so I knew he meant business :P ) so I parked next to him and as I'm walking to my car, so is he and I see him look at my car and when he sees me, he gets in his car and gets the %$&* out of there! It must of been those seat covers with hearts that he was embarrassed about
He probably saw your cute bangs and was too shy to ask for your number?

i was at orientation for my college as a freshman, and i drove my Z there and parked it in the parking structure. I left my bags in there thinking i could get them later in the day. I wasn't able to get them until 8:00 at night and we were not aloud to leave unless there was an orientation leader that went with us. So this guy comes with me to my car and the whole way he doesn't say a word. As we were walking to my car i pressed the unlock button and he stops in his tracks and yells "that can't be your car" im like haha yea it is. he's like "you must get so many chicks in there"

Almost the same thing happened to me when I was delivering pizzas in one of my past Z cars. Guy opened the door and asked if that was mine, when I told him, "yes", he said he was in the wrong business if the pizza guy can afford a Z.

Of course I had a Ferrari when I valet parked. It's all about priorities...and how you choose to spend your money.
