How much attention does your Nismo get?

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

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...

So many PW NISMOs around! Only a handful of the SR NISMO owners post somewhat regularly.

M1:

How is the GT treating you? My friend stationed in Germany is getting a 2013 GT soon and he is already talking that stuff.

Eagles:

Keep flying high and just let the dudes bounce off the rev limiter until they blow, lol. Either that or the cops will pick them up and admire you as you cruise by...............

Now you are equipped with the knowledge required to SOAR with the Eagles and look down on all of the Sparrows... occasionally eating one when you need a snack.

Agreed... The brothers love the Z (they appreciate style). I caught one of these guys taking a picture of my car with his phone in a grocery store parking lot... I love a laugh so I snuck up on him and hit my keyless entry, flashing the lights... he just about jumped out of his skin! Cool guy though, was really excited about the Nismo and great to talk to.

Also, I have an Audi S4 (really wanted AWD and 6MT, don't understand why this is so hard to find other than in a Subaru), so IMO my garage has the perfect mix of import and German! Plus, the Audi is amazingly quick and a blast to drive in the snow, definitely a sleeper to people that don't know what it is. I have not run into the German only "dicks" in my area.

looks like this thread has gotten a lot more replies since I last checked. I see I am not the only one who gets noticed lol.

Lately I feel like the Z has not been getting as many looks and such, but I think I am just getting used to not noticing people anymore. My friend was in the car with me the other day and mentioned how he noticed how people keep looking at the car, so I guess I have really just stopped paying attention to see who is or isn't checking me out lol
