Question Car getting a lot of attention?

I know i'm not the only one but it seems like everywhere i drive the Z i get a thumbs up or someone yelling out how nice the car looks or sometime taking a picture. People seem to think this car costs much more than it does. Wierd thing is i live in Bellevue so a Nissan is nothing special. Cops don't mind at all too which is wierd, maybe i'm just getting older or something who knows?

I guess this is a totally pointless thread, so ban me.

I like the attention I usually get, take it as a compliment and my day is a little bit better

everyone at work makes the joke "man you are getting paid too much".. I don't get it. I had an accord that was worth more then my Z prior to the trade in :/

people seriously think it's an expensive car. I usually can't get gas without someone complimenting it and talking about it. I don't mind the attention at all, I am glad it has that exotic status, but I think people are just generally blind to how common and inexpensive our car actually is.

being that I live in ghetto Everett though I am in a different ball game - a Z is pretty high status.. lol

Hey, even rolling with one sideskirt got attention. Granted it was mostly from the left side.

That's 'cuz Preludes are so common. Especially ones with GT-R replica bodykits.

bad use of the word. it's not in the exotic class for sure, I guess I'm just saying it's rarer then most sports cars in the areas I'm around (Everett / Mukilteo), hence all the attention it grabs.
