The dumbest question you've been asked about your car?
I got the car early in 07 and I just got the "is it a porsche?" for the first time a couple weeks ago and coincidentally shortly after I had my nismo v2 kit installed. I guess that's what it took to finally get confused for something else 
. So tempted to say "yup...Porsche 350GT, 2013, hasn't even come out yet. Imported prototype straight from Germany" just to see how gullible the dude was. However my non-smartass side took over and I was like "Nah man it's just a Nissan"

Haha nice same here. Had a Z06 keep revving and then I rolled down my window and he turned his head and calmly went forward because I have pulled him over before. Granted I am a cool as hell cop and don't cite for mods or b.s. stuff...unless its a honda lol

Yup judging by the comments in this thread, I guess the common stupid question by people are: "IS THAT A PORCHE?" I get asked that as well as, "Is that your car?" I politely respond with a yes, but I'd like to say, "No **** I'm driving it ain't I!!!"

As I'm reading through this thread, I have to laugh at all the Porsche comments. I work in a pretty industrial part of town, so most of the people around there don't see anything other than your typical Ford, Chevy, or Dodge trucks. I had a woman the other night tell me my car was gorgeous (hey, I'll take it! Haha the purple always wins the ladies over I guess...), and after I thanked her she said she doesn't see Porsches too often. Haha, I told her it was actually a Nissan 350z, and she was so shocked to hear that it was a Nissan!

"Does it have a turbo?"
"How do you clear driveways and speed bumps?"
"Ever speed in it?"
"Why are your breaks gold?"
"How fast does it go?"
"Where's the back seat?"
"What year Porsche is that"
"Why did you get such a small car? you cant fit your kids in it....." (no kids)
"Why would you get a black car? they get dirty way too fast." (I wash it once a week or more and it lives in the garage)

Unlucky, and yes, you're right about being wary of wiki. There is nothing wrong with the term, it's not derogatory but seems to be used in derogatory terms, particularly in the states (go figure)
But it's still used in polite company, in jap bike clubs etc etc so it's purely the user and their intentions as to whether it's rude or not
