I have an 05 E500 as my daily driver ( Note it has 20's).

The Z gets WAY more looks and complements.

Also keep in mind that its one thing to pay $50K+ on a four door car that you can do anything in.

Its another to pay 30K+ for a two seater that is basically only built for fun.

BTW Im in my early 20's and in LA.

Perhaps you're soooo good looking that women fear being caught and ensnared in your Medusa-like gaze, thus turning them to stone and causing them to crash into oncoming traffic....

No man, Im totally ugly! I'd be the 1st in line to admit it. Was just wondering...

Its shocking to me than, how many people dont have theyre eyes on the road no matter who is driving past, and would rather be fiddling with something on the seat/glove box rather than worried that they might hit me as they drive past. Weird!

I think women dont want to look at you because they have no interest in you.
Thus the not looking.

This is what I think. Have you ever pulled up to a light slowly and there's a guy in a nice Benz or an exotic type vehicle sitting at the light? You guys know the type. The guy that has his music blasting, knows his ride looks good, and is looking in all directions to see who's checking him out. What do we do? We make it a point not to give him the satisfaction of thinking we're jocking him, so what do we do? Look straight ahead or divert our attention somewhere else. I think this is what NeoRacer is referring to. True the Z may not be a Benz or Porsche, but it can look pretty damn good lowered with some aftermarket rims.
The other theory is that you might look alittle thuggish ruggish and people next to you don't wanna make eye contact, to avoid any confrontation.

Yea man its that EXACTLY. Same thing with girls..they dont wanna give the satisfaction to the driver that they looked..and so will avoid even lookin in the general direction. I noticed too its the better looking women that do this, especially if they too are driving nicer cars.

Women are like that. They love the chase. It's in their nature to not seem too easily available. They want the guy to chase. It's all a game to them. Believe me, they are checking you out. Whether it's from their peripheral vision or while they're rolling up to your vehicle, they'll size you up. Thing is you'll never know what they're thinking unless you look over and wave, motion for a phone #, or speak up. You'd be suprised how responsive they are then.

Look at yourself in a mirror before you leave your home.

Don't drive a LMS 350z.

It's the oppisite for me, I get stares so much, that and finger pointing at me. Girls like to stare and grab their boyfriend's arm and point at my car out to them.

Girls on the street also stare. Guys are the best, they go a little crazy sometimes. It's probably because this city has very few 350Z.

Just today some lady beside me nearly heat the car ahead of her because she was staring at my car! LOL! She knew I saw the whole thing and man was she blushing! LOL!

They don't stare because after a while they will get moist and their crotch will smell for the rest of the day....simple biology fellas.
