Further proving my earlier point...

 

For the most part, only other Z heads will notice me. BMW owners take notice a lot too. But when you are next to a ricer, they either dont acknowledge you or notice you and try to race or some ****.

 

Its either you're not comfortable with the blind spots, small mirrors, small window, seating position OR you're just a paranoid my350z member.

Welcome to the forum.

 

might just be the fact that it's a 2 seater, I'm used to rear seats so it feels like people are riding my bumper all the time. closest I had to a 2 seater was my rx-8.

 

I'm not sure about any of your other "problems" but I have definitely had ppl who drive ricers have the huge need to "prove themselves" when they're near me. I don't mean like pull up and ask to race. Just overtake me and floor it while i'm already going over the limit.

 

... mustang owners

 

It happens here in my small town. It's considered "high profile" lol.

 

Oddly enough, I noticed the same thing except for the cute chick in a Mustang thing. I've had a few attractive women approach me and (young and...older) ask questions about the car, but nothing more. I figured the folks that were tailgating or following closely beside my left rear were doing so to get a better look at what kind of car it was. I have the FairLady Z emblem over a polished Daytona Blue. Oh, people often ask about that. It's usually "Fair lady Z, huh? I never heard of that car..."

And then I explain the story behind that. I don't mind either. It's an icebreaker of sorts.

I have to admit, though, after a thorough wash and detail (I do it myself), the car attracts a lot of attention. There is such a thing as a chick magnet...

 

 

This for sure in my small town! That and retired people driving all over the road here is like WTF!

 

lol
