dude i get that all the time too, from mustangs to minivans. i know it's because of the Z and not just coincidence because i never noticed it in my previous car...which was a 1989 volvo sedan.

some idiot didn't want me changing lanes in front of him so he decided to step on it in his mitsubishi galant or whatever. i worked him and was like 2 car lengths ahead of him before i started getting over and what cracked me up is that he started honking before i even started to get over hahaha then we stopped at the next light and he pulled up next to me and tried to insult me. i just laughed and revved my engine and took off.

I really dont care the most about adults saying nice things, but i really enjoy when the kids say something nice.

I dunno, I get a lot. I can be through the supermarket parking lot and little children are yanking at their mom or dads shirt while pointing as i drive up to a speed bump or yielding to them crossing.

Or when i pick up my son from high school, i get the thumbs up, and some kid shouting out nice car as hes trying to race me in a 15mph school zone on his bicycle.

the only one i would say that i enjoyed from an older person was after one night at dinner, (I dont usually take the z out for dinner because that night was my sons homecoming dance night my wife and i enjoyed ourselves and could do this in a 2 seater).

As my wife and i went outside of the restaurant after dinner at a place called Pier de Orleans in Mesa, AZ (really good dishes there)... there was a lady perhaps a little older than i, maybe in her late 50s??? she was prancing and walking around my car because of where it was parked you couldnt miss it as you exited the restaurant. She walked around my car as i told my wife to wait a sec as we stepped out, i wanted to see her actions. she walked around the car twice. she was trying to find the badging on the hood which in my case is "VS" and the only stock badges were the "z" biscuits on the side fenders. As I approached she looked at me with a very nice smile, and asked what kind of car it was.

I was at the Testy Festival outside of Missoula, MT a couple weeks ago and this guy was having a professional photo shoot of himself with the 2 winners of the wet T shirt contest in front of the highway bill board. My tent and car were parked a few yards away and they asked who owned the car and if they could do some shots using it as a prop. Great shots of the girls hanging on it and in it. I got my camera out. Nothing I could post here! Still trying to find out what publication it was for. I was smiling so much, I forgot to ask.

Had a couple mechanics come into the lounge area at the dealership today just to say how they liked the car..

Pretty cool, considering they see about a dozen of them a day.

The two times that come to mind are once on the way to work i drove up behind a Schoolbus (Elementary I think), soon as they spotted me bout 10 of um poped up and with their faces glued to the back windows. So i pass them on the right during which i look over to see about 25-30 kids at the windows watching me go by.

The other time was this past summer at a red light. I was already stopped and a car with 4 good looking blondes pulls up next to me and beeps to get my attention and one of them says we love ur car can I get a ride. Of course my girlfriend at the time was with me (I was between her and the other car so the blondes couldn't see her). So the GF leans forward and tells um "sorry its only a 2 seater, but you just made his day"

The best is when I pass by this one elementary school and all the kids will just stop and stare.

Lots of time I'll see kids in other peoples cars turn and point and have their parents slow down so they can keep looking and wave at me.

Its hot though when like college chics will ride next to me and we just keep trading glances and smiles. Then if we end up at a light together they'll be like nice car.

One time this family was riding next to me and their daughter kept waving and smiling at me so I waved back and then the mom did the same. As they were moving over and ended up on my left side even the dad waved and smiled lol

I like watching the kids on busses all shift to one side of the bus to scope the Z.

Best compliment
"It looks like its going 100mph, standing still"

I spent some time researching which Z to get before I ended up getting the Performance brickyard, debatably the rarest Z, I was working at AOL at the time, with over 1500 cars in the parking lot. I came out the first day to find a cute redhead perched over it telling me that if this was my car she wanted to f*$%. She then went on to tell me a lot I didn't know at the time about the Z, how she was trying to get the car in the exact color and whatnot... needless to say, we took a very erm, spirited test drive for the next few hours in the less busy part of town.

Afterwards my friends all joked with me that they knew the car would get me laid, but didn't think it would attract them to literally sit and wait by the car just to get in line, and she was a solid 8 - 8.5 at that....

A year later, no stories that good to date, but laid 4 times from the car alone... for some reason, my car has taste, hasn't attracted a fat girl yet.

ha I was getting my emission test done, and the car was parked out front and the mechanic told me to bring it by. I brought it by and he looked and said, "Now I said bring your car not your daddy's" I said this is my car : )

other than that hmmmm a couple weeks ago at school I had my door up and 2 banging chicks drove by me, stopped, got out their cars and asked me where I work and told me "hot car, I love it" moments like that I love

Where in Tampa is this, I'm gonna hang out for day there

The first week I moved here (July this year) I was at a redlight and noticed on my left side a blonde looking at me and my car the whole time. The light goes green and her window drops and her female buddy driver yells out at me "Hey my friend wants to do you!" So yeah I caught up with them at the next light and they ask me if I wanted to go to the mall (we were basically there) So I said sure. The blonde ended up being 18 and immature

Another night coming home from a local meet around 2 am this very cute brunette chick is just straight grilling me up and down at a light, I smile at her and she says she loves my car, so we made small talk, I ask for her # and she tells me she had a b/f! Ladies, don't flirt with a guy just to tell him you have a b/f, that's fcked up
