i usually get the "hey, nice car/ride man!" i usually reply with the "thank you sir"

BUT, while the wife and i went to check out a cupcake shop, there was this little boy and his mom just getting out of their car when we pulled up.

the little boy turns around to see us and his jaw drops, and says "mom, im going to get a car like that" the mom turns to look at us then smiles...
i felt good for the rest of the day...

20 min after buying my 05 Z redline, I pulled in to a chickfillet in agusta GA. A woman same age as me (23) did a complete pivot and came over and told me that it was cute and wanted to take a ride to see how fast it would go.... may have been the car may have been me in uniform (army). I guess her body language was pretty expressive because My wife wasnt the happiest. gotta love tint.

Off duty cop told me at a stop light "nice car, is it a BMW?" I said "No, it's a Nissan 350z roadster" to which she replied "huh, didn't know Nissan made cars like that" haha ignorance is bliss sometimes

Today as I was walking to my car in the parking deck on campus a professor was in front of me walking towards his brand new BMW 545i. I was unlocking my car with the fob so he saw the lights go off and turned around, while telling the guy on the other end of his phone to hold on, and said "Man, that is a beautiful car, wish I had one." Not an extraordinary comment, but the guy was driving a 545

Some mornings on the way to work I have to stop at the road where the kids from the apartment complex have to stand for the bus. Everyday the same kid waves and gives me a thumbs up.

Saw the matchbox car for my DB so I bought it for him and gave it to him. Told him to stay in school so he can buy one too someday haha.

Best/funniest compliment I've gotten:

Background info:
Girlfriend: pastry chef, we go to lots of highend restaurants so she can get a feel for what kind of desserts they serve and how they should be served etc

Most fancy places don't deal with people as young as us, so they're not accustomed to communicating in the same manner as the younger generations as us.

So one day I decide to take her to a steak house in downtown, parkings ridiculous: $ 8-10 and hour on meters. So I usually valet for the $7 or so. Lol.

Anyways, so we eat, go outside and wait for the valet guy to bring my car back, and at the same time my car comes up, our waiter (mid 30's) comes out and has a valet ticket for a customer inside the restauant who wants they're car ready by the time they get up. So he walks out, and sees the valet giving me the keys and says:

That is a very nice...ride... Sir. (While giving me a nod with his hands folded behind his back) Haha.

The way in which he tryed to remain professional and state his enthusiasm for the car using vocabulary that's not so professional was hilarious.

im stationed at ellsworth AFB SD with my Z.....it snows more than half the year and its in the middle of nowhere which sucks and i cannot wait to get to another base....anyways..haha theres not very many Z's around i have 1 out of 4 im pretty sure. I went to this hick *** part of the world to help my friends bar out for a night in need of a bartender. Every girl and guy that came into the bar asked me about the red Z sitting out front and when I said it was mine they couldnt not beilve it they thought i was rich or famous and the girls were litterally trying to take my shirt off from behind the bar "OMG OMG you drive a 350z???" Then came closing time and they all hoped in their lifted trucks and left...true story belive it or not...its funny how shelterd people are in their little community in the middle of nowhere

had it barely over 2 months and my favirote compliment was from a GT-R owner...i approached him in a parking lot to envy his car and he gave me a compliment on mine!! made my day!!!

The random ppl driving down the interstates that roll down their window to give u a thumbs up is always a moral booster as well!

best Sheen moment of my life:

pretty little random enters my bed

Speaks ( bad idea ladies.. just hush)

"Wow.. i cant believe im here.. you're like a LEGEND".

proceed to swell already ridiculous ego to epic new proportions, rinse lather repeat.

That was 10 years ago, so im just humpin the "has-been" dream now.
