I saw this kid who looked to be about 12 years old run up to my car and start taking pics... At first I was like "HEY" but when I saw what he was doing I just smiled...

Everyday when I go drive my little brother to school, I get that look from him haha.

SAH WEEET. The whole "Wow I can't believe it's a 350Z OMGzorz" kinda deal.

Everyone should have their own little mini Z fanbase. Makes you feel even better that someone's admiring your car without any intent on vandalizing it.

R U kidding me!? I've never seen anyone gawk at an Evo -- kids or adults, much less saying that it's a race car.

Kids love the Z because it's like a full-sized version of the little race cars they play with...

In some ways kids are a good judge of how a car looks.

Adults will look at a car and subconciously take in the price,maitenance,the image it projects, jealousy, etc. which effects their overall opinion.

Kids just see cool or boring.

No way



Of course the Z doesn't cost 14-16million so.

When I bought my Z, my sister told me that after my 5-year-old nephew saw the car he went to see his doctor the next day and told his doctor that when he grows up he wants to go to college, get a good job and buy a fast car like his uncle. Hearing this made me proud.

I am a school psychologist and counsel kids in a small elementary school. Shortly after getting my 350Z I drove it to school. One of the kids I counsel saw me pull up and within 30 minutes it was all around school that the car belonged to me. I was standing outside as the classes walked by as they went to lunch. I got a constant string of "I like your car" and "Is it fast?" and a few wishful requests to drive the car. I meet regularly with a group of 4 ten your olds. When the group came in one of the boys loudly stated that he saw me "peel out" as I pulled into the lot. I denied it but was secretly proud that the car looked so great that a ten year old just figured it was peeling out as it went by him.

I must say this is a car that brings out the kid in you. I have had it 3 weeks and I still go into the garage and take a peek at it. I never get tired of looking at the lines. It is perfect. I have had many Hondas but never felt this way about them.

i've had mine for about 7 months and i still look out my bedroom window every night to admire it before going to sleep. it definitely brings out the child-like giddiness in me.
