I don't recall anyone ever thinking the z was a porsche although I can see how one might think that. I have had many people ask what kind of car it is.

I like the concept quite a bit and I would deffinately conscider buying one depending on what powertrain it is workin with. especially if it were something like a vq37 ;-).


why can't nissan produce this car instead ruining all their formerly great cars as they have been doing as of lately

I've received all those comments, i usually get from older dad types, "nice datsun" to which i usually smile and say thanks and even yesterday a 15 year old i think said as i pulled out of the parking lot "hey man nice porsche" so its always something but its usually always nice so i like all the compliments and comments.

people always ask how did i afford it...idk i guess its because the Z isnt a ridiculously popular car and when people see it they think its exotic...that at least the car where im from i see mayb one Z a day and i drive all day...on the other hand i see a G on every corner

About the Porsche comment, here is a pic i took when one parked across the street from me. I can see why people ask, the body lines are very similar.

My 81 year old neighbor who actually fought in WWII against the Japanese loves my car, and often reflects on how he misses his old 260 that he bought "brand spankin new", and how his wife said he was too old for that kinda car...he's the coolest guy ever!

I have actually had the same questions a couple of times. I can see why people would ask if they are not familiar with the Z
