Yep, got sick of seeing 30 Zs a day in West LA. It's become the Integra--everyone has one. It was great in 03, but now, it just doesn't have that special feeling. You just can't expect a 30k car to be "special". That's why I switched to an Elise. It's too damn small for 90% of the fat a$$ed Americans, and too impractical for the remaining 9.999999%, so it'll always stand out as a unique car.

 

I havent seen a Z on the road for a long time here in southern WI - the one I do see around is always the same one - so I guess they are pretty rare around me

 

I see a few Z's a day, however; not as much as SCION TC's or EVOs, wait and STi's

 

Why even bring up the TC? That thing is like a Civic.

 

i like how there are a bunch around. it makes factory replacement parts MUCH MUCH CHEAPER for the rest of us. ever think about how much a new fender for a 360 modena costs?

 

When I see a bunch of Z's i just think of it as a good thing. Means nissan has a successful product.

 

you calling my Z played out?

 

Everyone has one? They've only sold about what, 150k in the states?

I was just thinking the other day driving around NJ how I rarely see any. The next day, I saw two in NJ, two in NYC. Lol.

 

I think the PPW is the lowest selling color of those that have remained through the lineup in 2003-2006. Maybe you see a lot of them around you, but I don't think they accounted for much of the total sales. You see a lot of silver Z's because there have been four different colors.

 

When I first got mine in Feb. of 2003 I felt like a king where I lived, then the next month I got my 20's and people where like wtf?? What kind of car is that? Then I saw everyone driving a Z so that made me get the Veilside widebody, to step aside from the rest of the crowd because not everyone has about 4,000 to put away on just the exterior. But hey I love my car and every other Z I see on the road

 

thats 160k of disposable cars that will hit the market

 

scion TCs are a dime a dozen in SoCal bro

 

i was an orginal 03'er as well..when i first got the car it was like....dude...what kind of car is that? but it was a silverstone that soon met its demise when i got t-boned by an idiot driver..next up was a lemans sunset roadster and 2 years later i am still in love with the car...and so is everyone else......when i first got the roadster everyone was like why did you get an orange car? it's one of those colors that kinda grows on most people (except car enthusiasts they love the color)...and the more they see it the more they like it...expecially around dusk it looks crazy hot ....

 

I have to admit the z is pretty common in houston but the g35 is even more common.

 

I took delivery of my 2003 on Sept 17,2002. It arrived on the second boat from japan. It was the first "Z" to come into my dealer. I did and still do get loads of compliments driving the car.. I drove about 135 miles today catching the great colors in the Adirondack mountains and only saw 1 350Z. They still are not very common in these parts..

Steve (k2we) Saratoga Springs, NY 48,456 miles since Sept 17,2002

 

Not too common in Columbus, Ohio. Or in Northeastern Ohio for that matter.

 

When I first got my Z they weren't all that common. When it became more common I added a body kit to keep my Z unique looking. Now I went and did the total opposite and traded the Z for a car that is more rare but looks like every other European car.
