"Is that the model with a twin turbo? It looks like it"

Hood was down and car was off. I don't know what indicates my car as having forced induction.

I get that one quite a bit at work from the same guy. "It says Fairlady on the back!" he says, refusing to believe that anybody apart from the Nissan factory could have placed that emblem there, and refuses to believe that the Z33 is not the Z32.

LMFAO

The G35 Coupé is the 2 door. Could be up the wrong tree here, not sure what you're saying.

I remember this girl asking me in a serious tone of voice, almost like she knew what she was talking about. "does it have VTEC?" then she went off to say how much faster the civics were because of it blah blah blah. I couldn't help but laugh when she said it.

Those kids may have been to his advantage, because they were going to push the car.

A few months ago I was picking my brother up from high school
A little kids (like kindergarten young) walked passed and said "nice car, do they make them for men too?"

Once this gayish blonde looking guy and a bald dude pulled up to me and asked me "what's the retail for one of those?"

Then a race ensued.

Was walking to my car to get my billfold when a group of kids in middle school were walking down the street and noticed my Z. One of the girls said, "Oh thats a...umm..thats a Nissan...Ummmm, they just released those to the United States a few years ago!"

Died laughing at her sheer ignorance.
