Heh this is a good one! Im sitting behind a stoped school and about 4 heads pop out of the windows and a couple shout "Man thats an awesome car, lets hear it!" So I give them a nice little rev and they all cheer and I drive off to a bunch of thumbs up!

My wife and I were driving around to find a good spot to do some pics of the car. We ended up near a brand new very exclusive neighborhood. The gated entry was fantastic. We parked and started shooting. Within about 5 mins, a local sheriffs car showed up and just sat there watching, 2 mins later another and then 2 more. They all got out and walked over to my wife and I. I said I'd move the car even before they said anything. The senior Sgt said, "no sweat, just wanted to check out your Z, fantastic, best lookin Z I've seen" We talked for a while, they loved the car! I have an awesome pic of their 4 cars and mine but I promised not to post it on the web.

i was dropping some unwanted clothes off at goodwill and there was a 17 yr old kid in there and he came outside and was like "what kind of car is that?'' I kinda laughed and looked to see if he was serious and he was, i told him what it was and he was like " ive never seen one before!" First thought, sheltered life. second thought SWEET! im not compared to everyone else as having "one of those!" I.E. Mustang,civic,corvette.

Cool kid, gave me a few compliments and stayed outside to watch me drive away.

The best compliment that I have gotten was at a charity autocross. I drove the course and then afterwards a guy with a really tricked out STi came up to me and asked me about what all I had done to the Z. He then said "That thing sounds so awesome I'm tempted to get rid of the suby for one of those!" I said thanks and then told him how awesome the STi's were and we parted ways. But, I was pretty happy to have that kind of compliment from another manufacturer's fan.

Thumbs up Compliments even before I leave the dealership!

Okay..Ill give this a shot.. Bought my 06 10/3/07..I was at the dealership for your normal 3hours talking, negotating..ya i cant spell.. and then the test drive, and then all the paperwork.. anyway i walk out to clean out my cougar and put all of my crap in my Z, and notice about 4-5 sales people (including the one who sold me the car) outside staring at my Z. I have each one tell me.."Man, That is an amazing car". "Best car on the lot".."Sad to see it go"!..then my salesperson said to me.."I hate you".."I want this car" "You better come by often to get BS free services done under your warrenty so we can see it again and see what all youve done to it"! I mean guys..this is a stock silver 2006 Z. Keep in mind..this was a subaru dealership with sti's all around me, and 2 evos parked next to my Z. So i just felt good when i had half the sales people out there giving me compliments like that.

Default 2nd reply to this post - but this is the best compliment I've gotten..

I was walking all the way back to my car from the grocery store and noticed someone kneeling by the back of my Z (also noticed 3 cars all parked around me ) .....

It was a teenager taking pictures of my car right there in the grocery store lot.

He complimented me on my 'sweet ride' and stated that he's been in love with the cars since '03.. he can't wait to get one. I told him Thanks, and it's hard to stay out of trouble with it.

Was at gas station at 2 am when the attendant told me I had a gorgeous car. Then an officer who was standing by the counter drinking her coffee looked at me (i'm 21) and said maybe she should give me a ticket for driving such a nice car at my age hahahaha!. That's for all those who say cops don't pull you over cause they're jealous

Haha that thought made me laugh.
