I do it all the time. I purposely walk away and then pretend like I forgot to arm the car and turn to look at my Z for a few seconds and then arm it. Sometimes I'll even take a few more looks when no one's looking.

others cars, such as my parents car, I don't even look back to see if it's locked or not but to my Z, I can't do that. My head just turns and I have to look back at least once when I'm walking away
IMO my Z looks better when I'm walking away rather than just standing and watching the car.. I dunno

This is a mandatory process when you get in/out of the Z...It's in the manual.
