Z = children's fantasy
Totally...I got the car in the 1st place cause it looks like its ready to transform into a robot...one of the only rides I've seen for some reason that looks like its going 200mph at a standstill.

Back at the office I have 3 book-shelfs filled with scale-model Zs & a Nismo-GTR. It basically looks like a shrine to the Z. Long story short, during last year's 'bring your kid to work day' one of the groups was passing down the isles when they stopped by. You should have seen the boy, he was in complete awe! His sisters were not too interested, but the kid looked like it was Christmas Morning.
Too bad my Z was at the shop that day, it would have been nice to show him the real deal.

the kid screams out in excitement, "THAT'S A FAST CAR! THAT'S A FAST CAR!"
Tonight, I was walking back to my car after work, and there was this
kid about 5 years old with his mom near my Z.
The kid walks up to my Z, stairs at it for a minute(thank God he didn't touch it lol)
and tells his mommy, "Mommy, I want this car!"
Over the last year and a half of owning my Z, I've received many compliments
from grown males and females, but I must say it feels better to be
complimented by pure, little children.
I thought this kind of thing only happens to supercars, but today proved me wrong.
Just thought I would share

but otherwise ive gotten compliments from many grown-ups. i was asked what kind of porsche it was by a bum in downtown LA lol. i told him it was a nissan and he flipped out! he was like no way thats a nissan this and that. so i showed him the logo on the front bumper and he started talkin about how nice the car is and how im BALLLLLIN!!!
yea i get alot of kids taking pics on their camera phones, i saw a kid taking a camera phone pic about 2 weeks ago as i was walking to my car, i pressed the panic button on my alarm and freaked the kid out. Ran back to his moms minivan
Thats nothing i had a cop following me waiting for me to do something wrong, well after about 5 min he pulles up next to me tells me to put my window down and says "nice car" funny part is right after he said that he turned on his lights and went after another car hahahahah
a couple of days ago i was filling up at the gas station and this 8-10 year old kid with his dad was in his seat with his mouth wide open the entire time i was there. funny thing is the window was completely fogged up from his heavy breathing.lol

A few weeks ago, late at night, a cop was behind me in the next lane over. He kept speeding up, passing me and slowing back down, letting me pass. He was just begging for me to go even 1 mph over. I was filming him on my camera phone in case he did pull me over, cause its illegal for them to provoke someone like that.
i get alot of compliments from older people i mean like 80 years old lol they love the z i think its the best when you get complimented by real old people or real young people. I get compliments all the time ive had people pull up to me and ask how much did you spend on that car it is awesome both females and males they usually say is it as fast as it looks i tell them maybe not as fast as it looks but its quick for sure i love the compliments.

Wow... the kid's really like the Z's around the world...
Here in my country it is mostly kids and teens that compliment my car, but kids are honest 100% and tell what they think. It is very cool to see them
Several older people also love the looks and will compliment the car, usually when I am doing a red light I have someone looking and giving the thumbs up
