I thought my S2000 was the best car ever made lol. I love my new ZR. One of the best compliments I have gotten is when people say they like the ZR so much better than the S2000. My brother said he was hoping I would have went with the Z the first time instead of getting the S. The Z gets looks and nice comments everyday!
Girl at my local car wash last Friday;
"I LOVE your car. My boss asked me what I would do if I won a million dollars and I told him I would buy a Nismo Z."
"I feel like I am talking to a celebrity standing next to your car."
(While sitting in the driver's seat) "Noooo, I can't drive it. See how my legs are shaking just sitting in it?"

I feel sorry for the guy above who has 5 of them on his block. Here in Winnipeg, I have maybe 5 in the whole city!! At least that is all I have seen, and of them, I think I'm the only one with a newer model lowered with some things done to it. This car really doesn't need much done to the exterior to look fantastic.
In the past week I've had 8-9 year kid tap another on the shoulder and point at my car as I drove by starring in a jaw open like wow!
I had a young lady at a dinner reception tell me she bought her G35 sedan because she liked my 350Z so much, just had to get something that was more her. But stated she sure likes my car.
I had my ex-wifes son tell me that he had to buy a Z after looking at mines, he recently bought a slick black 350Z and is loving it, 24 year old doing well and it shows he driving a Z-car. At a Ihop he was showin me his car and a older gentlemen stopped to asked whose Porsche was that, I pointed at the ex's-son he looked pretty proud when he said its not a Porsche its a 350Z.

It's strange (well not really) but I find the amount of complements you get are part of the environment you are in. If you drive through any small town in a Z people wet themselves. Let alone a modded Z with body kits, custom exausts, etc... Then its just plain amazing to see how much a human head can turn as you drive by and the people stare in awe the entire way.
If you go to Newberry street in Boston its like being at a car show. GT3's BMW M's Aston's, the occasional Ferrari or Lambo. LOL I feel like driving a Nismo is just run of the mill. Its like an oxymoron, the only place not to get your Z doesnt noticed *as much* is the exact street where you would go to show it off in Boston.
I feel like Z's should come with factory tint standard as if to say..."Tint- When you just don't feel like acknologing the onlookers.'
If it were an optional extra from the dealer it would say......"Tint- When you just don't feel like acknologing the onlookers." -$1,000

I was walking to my car in my work parking garage behind two women who were talking. One of them jokingly goes to the other one, "Well, I guess I'll get in my car!" and starts walking toward my car, not seeing that I was still behind her. I gave it a little key fob beep and she turned around with the most shocked look on her face and goes "That's yours!?!" Her friend and I just laughed at her.
HAHAHA!!! thats great. The other day i was eating dinner with this girl at a chinese place. After dinner we walked out and i didnt even know what she drove. I happened to park my nice clean Z next to her. She was confused why i was walking the same direction then i cut over to my Z. She immedietly came over to my car and said she wanted to do me in my Z. I told her its complicated and she said she woudlnt care. haha time to keep working on that game! ya this car is hilarious for compliments
and us in colorado dont see many a day. im lucky if i see one other one in a day. And i usually see the same one every other day haha. And being that i get the wierdest looks from business poeple driving there sedan or SUV. its hilarious!

I mean, it's not a cheap car, but it's not outragously expensive either.
