Pulled into Dunkin Donuts to get coffee before going to auto-x
Chick at drive up is all giddy and asks if my car is a Ferrari
I reply, "No sweetie, its a Nissan, I don't need to compensate for anything."

Vettes are so common here so they don't attract as much attention. One thing I notice about them is that they are all driven by old guys.
Now they can't be the only ones who can afford it as a base coupe isn't worth much more than a Z here.

Yeah, Vettes are a dime a dozen here. And they are all driven by guys with no hair or gray hair. They just don't do it for me.
Unfortunately, I live down the street from a Nissan dealer so Z's aren't uncommon here either. And since I am near Mt. Hood, Subarus are in almost every drive way.
Plus, there is a rich people neighborhood nearby and Porsches are numerous. Ugh, there are no good sports cars out here that aren't on every corner.
I get complimented on my shoes more than my car around here.

just the everyday stairs from kids, the mistaken porche compliments and the one time offer to buy it on the spot.
but the best compliment is when my wife and i pulled up to an ATM and she got out to pull money and as soon as she got 10 ft from the car a badA$$ asain chick walks up by the driver side walks around the front bumper just checking the car out and leans in the passenger side windo and says " hey, your cars really hot." and i check my side mirrors to make sure she gets to her car saftly. and she gets into a dropped 300 with 22's that looks AMAZING.

"Nice Z."
-The guy in the '86 280Z hardtop, with the 2JZ engine (with the turbo sticking partway through the hood), making "706 rwhp on pump gas."
I don't know if it was 706 hp, but that turbo sounded like the sky ripping and he was fcking gone . . .

This is one of the instances but i was coming out of a restaurant and some ppl took their phones out and were taking pictures of my car. I just walked by and said wow thats a nice car and waited for them to leave. This has been the case ever since i put the veilside ver. 3 body kit on.

I was once at a club, saw two chicks dancing together, went up to them and danced with them....when I left at around 2:30AM, I saw them walking to their car in the parking lot, so I pulled up and just said hi...they were gasping "OMG, that's what you drive?"...in my head I was thinking "ummm...it's only 31 grand"...but haha, who am I to bust their bubbles...I unlocked my door, and they BOTH jumped into my passenger seat, one sitting ontop of the other...and dropped them back off at their car at 5:00 that morning...
I guess that was a compliment?

Latest compliment -
I'm at a friends house to play some poker.. a good dozen people showed up. I park my lemans sunset '06 in the driveway and another guy parks his grey s2000 next to me.
At least 3 people ask - 'Who's Z is that in the driveway? Nice F-ing car!'
No one mentions the s2000...and after the last person complimented my car, another says, 'no love for the honda?'.... silence...

ok so with my visit this past weekend in St. Louis I got the following compliments over a two day period... More than I ever got in Kansas City.
Satruday,
Get pulled over on HWY 70 by Foristell Police for illegal tint and no front license plate.. Tint turned out to be 14% and I got a warning for the license plate. But the cop comes up the car and before i can say anything he says, " Man this is a nice car, I pulled you over for ........, License and Insurance please....
#2
Driving on HWY 70 west right after the bridge in St. Louis and White Stretched SUV comes up beside me and I start hearing screaming girls. I look to the left and there are four of them (Blondes) yelling out the window about how hot my car was.. I just smiled and drove on..
#3
Went to QT in Wentzville at 11pm and as I was going in a lady was coming out and asked what type of car that was.... So I said a 350z, and she replied with I will make it worth wild for you to drive me home... Oh and I was with my gf...
needless to say i had to just walk away..
there were more but those are the best ones.
