I just got my car for about a month? Im in high school and recently ive gotten...

"You dont even need to look good, you can still get girls with that car" - from my home

"Im jealous, you have such a nice car"

And i heard from my friend " Some senior was going crazy, and he said he would praise the kid with the 350z "

and i got a bunch of "I like your car"s and "Nice car"s

The best compliment I've ever gotten was.........by a police officer when i got pulled over a couple years ago, "Nice Z, but you look very familiar. Have I seen you somewhere before?"

Best compliment came from a cute cougar at a stop light…


Cougar: Hey Handsome, car is as sexy as the owner. Sure would love to take a ride.

Me: I drive fast and rough for long periods at a time… You sure you can handle young blood like me?



She blushed and her jaw dropped. It was the best reaction I have ever gotten. Unfortunately for her, she was a little to old for me to dive into. I hightailed it out of there before she could accept the offer.


The most hater comment I got came from a Director while in a meeting at my company 2-3 days after I bought the car. Everyone else was congratulating me and telling me how nice the car was and all, but not this guy…

Director: Wow, that’s your car? I thought it belonged to somebody on the executive management team. That car is pricey, how can you afford the payments? Must be tough…

Me: Yeah, well… Not sure what to say about that... Im doing well, I think its just best to leave it at that. (He reached over to put his hand on my shoulder to maybe apologize so I followed with) Please don’t, you are going to wrinkle the Ralph Lauren Polo. Do you mind passing me a coaster for my starbucks coffee, this venti is getting a little heavy.



That got a good chuckle from some of the people that were at the meeting. Me and this director are in good terms, I honestly was just blown away when such a comment came out of his mouth. He is a little arrogant at times but he is still a good guy, Im not mad at him.

I'm actually debating how to spend my money right now, maybe you guys can help me:
1. Nismo V2 front bumper, and other body pieces (with paint!)
2. 4.08 gears + upgraded LSD
3. Eurotrip

Yeah, I never got anything bad about the car itself.

Isn't there already a thread somewhere on this site about this very same subject?

To be honest, you are just going to eat up the V2 just the same as you did with the stock bumper.


2. 4.08 gears + upgraded LSD

As to the V-2, get 3M put on it, no rock chips...aaaahhh not saying anything about hitting a curb or anything like that though...

Myself:
1. How you keep the black shine like that, no swirls
2. Boy, I would really like to take her for a run
3. Plenty of comments on the S/C. (Myself, the TT would get the same, if not more)
4. If you sell your hood, I want it.

No bad comments "yet"....

Lets put it this way. He wished he had your car, that's why he started talking crap. Plus he had his gf in an old *** Mercedes, and just trying to show off how tough he was....... If I were you, i would've just laughed in his face and drove off......reverse psychology my friend........
