To be specific...

San Diego (North County/ La Jolla/ Downtown and Clairemont area)

I see Z's like once or twice a day. G35 coupes have REALLY gotten common....but you never see one modded.

It's rare to see a modded Z as well but when you do see one it's decked out.

Most Common Color: Chrome Silver
Somewhat common: Silverstone
A few here and there: Lemans Sunset and Superblack
Seen once or twice: PPwhite
Rare as a unicorn: Daytona Blue and Redline

In the San Fernando Valley and Downtown LA:

I see Z's maybe once or twice a day. (Other parts of SoCal have more). Usually NOT modded.

I see like 8-10 G35's a day!!

I guess I'm on the road during yuppie times.


edit: hey the Z who came out of the 8th street parking garage yesterday - that was me who high-beamed you. Wasn't trying to be ****, just wanted to say hi.

Z's are so rare in Milwaukee that I can actually count how many I've seen since their release on one hand. If any of you are from Wisco and drive a Z, post here dammit lolz

I wonder how it is in Japan???


Being that it's a total tuner car... you'll probably see alot of unique versions of the Z.


Anyone from Japan wanna comment???

reiver if you see a DB track in the dell parking lot taking 2 spots that's mine.
I live down the street from Dell at the end of Louis Henna.
I pass by Dell 3-4 times a day and check out the mobile oil change/ Car wash thing y'all have. The Louis Henna / GreenLawn corner of the parking lot is usually nothing but sports cars....

I hope they are rare. Every nissan dealer in this area I drive by still has the same Z's sitting on their lot that I saw a few months ago.
The Z's here are usually sold before the shipping plastic wrap is off of them. When I went to buy mine, a truck arrived with 3. I went and got my wife they were still in wrapping and white paste of some sort, but all 3 were already sold. It may be slowing down, but I never see the same ones at the local dealership.

Yeah, I'm sure it's just the slow winter sales or everyone is ordering theirs and not buying the ones sitting on the lot. I wonder if my dealer is holding off ordering my car untill they place their order for spring. Ugh! It sure feels like they are.

I live in Orange Park, FL. A sister city to Jacksonville, FL. Anyways, I see around 3-4 Zs a day. Some of them are the same people. Maybe it's because I live in "the rich neighborhood". There just a bunch of 30-40 year old men and women drivin their automatic Zs around. I've seen around 10-12 different one's total. Including a Lemans Sunset with a black stripe going from the from the front to back. And a blue one with big chrome wheels.I'm probably the youngest Z driver in the city.

They are definately everywhere in Orange County. I see 4 of my co-workers Z's everyday in the parking lot (2 CS, 1 PPW, 1 DB) The next lot over has 3 (1 SS, 1 SB, 1 DB). Hehe, It's really getting crazy, AND...someone has a SB Track I believe, with the Stillen S/C on it (saw 'the hood') that I see a lot right near where I live.

It's like the new civic! I see the Z everywhere!

Not many... I bought my Z this January...and the first other Z I saw in town was 3 month later...
Jeez... I was the first one to get on in town and for those 3-4 months, I just got so many stares and turn-heads and stuff.
These days, I see couple more Z's in town, but weird thing is, I only saw one CS Z so far. All other Z's are Super Black! I heard CS is by far the most common color for the Z but it's a different story in my town. At least I can tell there are 4 other Black Z's other than mine.
But none of'em are track tho!

There are 3 Z's that I've seen repeatedly around my area. (Puyallup, Spanaway, Tacoma)

One PPW, one SS, and one CS.

I saw two on Ft. Lewis as well. A LS and CS.

Its not very often, but its often enough to remind me how sweet these cars look driving down the road.
