If there's a measurement called "attention/$", the nismo wins it hands down.

The best one I had was...a new black Camaro SS passed by on the fast lane, but the lil boy in the passenger seat climbed up, both palms on window, and couldn't stop staring at the Nismo as if he just saw Optimus Prime

lol thanks guys. but def love my ride. I saved up for like a year to put down a massive down payment when I read it in an article late 2008. I always wanted a Z but when I saw it I fell in love. I went to the dealership in SD and they had a NISMO there $5000 off making room for a GTR Im like uhh I want it lol and bought it right then and there

I could teach you, but I'd have to charge...


I always get "is this YOUR car?" .. even had "really? its yours? I mean, it even has black rims."

Best is when you're passing a minivan or suv full of kids & the driver points the Z out.. obviously says "LOOK" to the kids.. all the kids' heads turn and watch you pass.

Today I was driving in town and got caught behind this RSX on a one lane road. The road split to two lanes and he slowed down even more. I knew he wanted me to pass him so he could try to get me to run, and sure enough as soon as I passed him in the next lane he took off. I just stayed at 35mph and he kept slowing down to get beside me and then he would speed off. What was sad is this idiot had two little boys in the car, one in the front seat and one in the back. Both of them couldn't have been more then 5 years old. The boys both kept looking back at me as they were taking off like a bat out of hell so you know they knew what dad was doing. People amaze me sometimes.

I get a lot of side glances and most dont look directly at it for some reason. Like they are afraid to look at it directly, except for the brothers that smile and give me the thumbs up. B8 S4 drivers drive by with their nose upturned at me. Bunch of dicks that hate anything not German. Glad I'm past that scene.

Gotta love it. Lots of that German-only stuff up here. It's especially sad when the typical DC/NOVA GTI driver thinks they are above you...

I've had mine now for almost a week. Every ricer in the area that goes by me either wants to race or they bounce it off of the rev limiter. I'm waitin' for one of them to blow it.

How could anyone not want to stare at automotive greatness? Just as the great eagle the Nismo stands out from the flock of sparrows and gulls.

I like every angle of the Nismo, except for the side view of the front bumper. It looks too long and frankly, kind of awkward and ugly in my opinion:

I get a lot of comments from all sorts of people at all sorts of locations...mostly at the gas station though. The I went downtown the first night I owned it and was chased down by a Lexus with three guys inside that apparently really, really liked my purchase from their thumbs-ups and comments.

The biggest appeal of the NISMO is it is a sexy car that has great performance and most of all it is attainable to own by most people.

What's the difference between a porcupine and a Porsche? The porcupine has the pricks on the outside
