1. "Cute Car"
2. "Do you ever drift it?"
3. "Nice looking car but it sounds like **** what is that noise (blower)"
4. "Are you running NOS?"
5. "Is it FWD?"
6. "That car would not stand a chance against my buddies SRT4"
7. "I got something that will beat it!"
8. "Thats a nice car, my wife wants one."

I have heard them all. I usually just smile and laugh at the haters b/c I know they are just mad b/c they don't have one

By far the worst compliment I've gotten... I went to Sonics with my girlfriend and the girl walks up and says, "Your car is nice..." I thank her and then she says, "How much did it run you, 10 grand?"

I'm sure the look on my face said "***** are you ****ing retarded?" but I just kept my mouth shut rather than telling her the price.

Him: "It's modeled after Audi TT right"
Me: "What do you know about cars? You don't even have a license"

Don't we basically have Nissan's version of V-tec? And it's all time too, not just above 5000 RPM.

Well, I was asked at a gas station, what I had done to my civic, so I ask the idiot, "do you really think it's a civic" He was shocked and said, well don't Z's have a dual exhaust... I was like PFFF, yes but I installed a single... he was like, "looks like a civic with a bodykit to me. He was driving a black Z06, trust me I waited till hi *** came on the road, and handed it to him, then he was speechless and wouldn't come next to my car...

"My friends SRT4 will eat you alive.."

tell him to come eat mine. I've Raced Boosted M3's, M3's Sprayed, M3's with gods in them, and still, no hope for them...

I was told last night that my 350Z is ugly and that the 300ZX is much better looking.

I had a moron in a G35 coupe drop his window and tell me that I f'd up buying the Z, and that it's "just a lowly nissan", hmm he's one confused little brat...

Then I had another guy in a G35 rev his engine at me for absolutely no reason and scream out the window how his skyline is god. it didn't bother me too much after i looked away from him, looked at his girl, and started acting as if I was whackin off, lifted up one leg and just started doin the motion. its great to be in a lower car :-D. He stalled and I laughed immediately after my entertaining display :-D.

I also got a thumbs down from this 50-60 year old driving a really clean TT 300zx, i was sad for about 20 minutes .

edit - noticed everything i just said was not a bad compliment, but insults. sorry guys!!

Yea it was really sad, mostly because I was looking at his car with such admiration and pride, and I know he could tell it by the look on my face that I loved his car, and that I was proud to drive the new Z generation. Then he totally made me feel like a little b*tch when his thumbs went up and he drove away. Atleast I was alone at the time..... Damn its so upsetting thinking about that...

I had a girl ask me "Why is your car shaped like that?" I was at the drive through liquor store and she was referring to why my windows were so small. Could barely fit a 12pk of bottles through the window.

I've had a dynotuner once ask me if it was FWD or RWD

had a friend who has a 240Z think it was FWD


SRT4 owner:
"those Z's aren't all that fast huh? For $10k more they only have 20-30 more whp than my car and mine is a lot lighter anc comes with a turbo"



btw guys,

"cute" in girl language means "freaking awesome"


you'll rarely hear a girl say that car is:
"badass" - most girls don't say words like this
"fast" - like most girls really care
"awesome" - as in they know all about the Z's performance
etc
