I always thought the "Porsche" thing was an over exaggeration, until it happened to me. Hahaha. My gf's boss thought the Z was a Porsche...his exact words were "your boyfriend drives a Porsche!?"

The reverse would have been more entertaining…

Porsche guy pulls into the carwash, and his ticket is labeled “Nissan 350z.”

Here is a way to have more fun… Find a Porsche 911 owner and ask him how he likes his Porsche Boxster. You won’t believe how fast the correction comes back: “Oh no, this is a 911, not a Boxster.”

911 owners hate the fact that the 911 and the Boxster share nearly identical front ends that allows confusing the two.

Awesome! It's great how our car is commonly mistaken for such a fine, reliable piece of German machinery like a Porsche 911.

When i first got my Nismo, I went to work & parked it in my bosses driveway as usual. When we got home I was looking for the keys and started to unlock it. Then his neighbor came over, who fancies himself as a car guy (so i hear), his jaw agape. He was asking me...Is that a 911 GT3???!!!

I about pissed myself and told him its a Z.

Sometimes. But usually when I ride I go around the Kendall Lakes golf course. I'll be moving to Brickell in Nov so I'll probably be able to go with you then. Hit me up if you're in the kendall area.

Hit me up. I'm usually @ Sagafredo's or Blue Martini on Friday nights.

I should be living in brickell already but I got screwed in the housing bubble. I have an empty apt in homestead just sitting there. FTMFL!
