I've honestly gotten a lot of compliments in the first 2 weeks of owning my Z.

2003 Touring package, Chrome Silver Metallic, lowered very tastefully on the stock rims.
Get alot of random people screaming "nice car"! Especially while picking up my little brother from high school or just randomly driving around.

BEST ONE so FAR was the second day I had my Z, a GT-R pulled up next to me, and gave me a thumbs up, and said "you have yourself a beautiful car." Obviously, I was telling him how much more beautiful his car was

I think that GT-R owners secretly want 350z's and 350z owners secretly want GT-R's

I dont think we secretly want a gtr, more like openly

JDM_35OZ

Yah, that's true
I mean sure the GT-R is badass, but you can't just not like a Fairlady :P

Well my story is I parked my Z in this parking lot and got out when i heard a guy say:

guy: "DAMN, that's sexy"

me: "uhh what did you just say?"

guy;"oh **** I'm sorry that was rude, but I meant you and your beautiful car are sexy!"

me: "uhhhh thanks?!"

I have to admit I didn't really like getting hit on by a guy that was twice my age but hell, I loved the compliment about my Z!!! hahaa

My gf said it was "beautiful" when she first saw it, and she doesn't like modified cars that look like they are trying too hard, and friends of my father's who are more into hot rods and muscle cars of the '70s talk to me about my car and appreciate it. That, and my son loves it. I have a picture of him standing outside to go look at it the day after I got it home. Can't beat these compliments, as it shows the car gets respect from all forms: from my son who's a child, to my girlfriend who isn't into cars, to the next generation older than me who love old-school cars. None of these groups really know the car, yet respect it.

Also, I've been told it looks like a Porsche and have had friends claim they'll be buying a Porsche Cayman next, even though I think the performance is spot on with a Cayman. Whatever the case, it's compared to Porsches.

Me at McDonalds at 4am the other night, tired as hell from driving and just wanted to get home.

Guy: Welcome to McDonalds can I take your order.
Me: Bacon, egg and cheese biscuit, large orange juice and that's it.
Guy: Nice Z
Me: Excuse me?
Guy: Pull around to the second window for your total.

Pull to second window...

Guy: (Tells me the price on my food and hands me my card back) Omg I love your car.
Me: Thanks man.
Guy: You look good in it too.
Me: Uhhh thanks man (I'm gay but this was still odd as I'm no fairy boy)
Guy: What did you order again?
Me: Number 3, large orange juice.
Guy: Oh yeah (Leaves and comes back), So take me for a ride sometime? You don't see many of those around here and you really keep it clean.
Me: Sure but you have a good morning man.

And commence driving away to the sound of a Fujitsubo catback.

STL, they can see you while you order at McD's? I never knew that!

Xonatron

It's the only way to see what you look like, on your own at least. I haven't found a place to do this yet, but tried it once with my son.

I had an older gentlman ask me what year my car was and I told him 03 and he said he thought it was brand new. My car shine like it just came out of the factory minus the dents on the doors.
