Same here. My Nismo is my daily, and Kansas City has wickedly weird weather. So it has a tendency to always be dirty (I gave up washing it every day)

Same here. My Nismo is my daily, and Kansas City has wickedly weird weather. So it has a tendency to always be dirty (I gave up washing it every day) because it's always exposed to the elements. Regardless, even when it's not looking its best, I get stares. Magnetic Black is impossible to keep clean, but the good thing is from ten feet out and further, you don't see dirt.
Two weeks ago- Guy in his late teens at gas pump: That's a wicked machine, I bet I could beat you off the line. Me: (I look over at his beat up late 80s chevy S-10) I bet you probably could, but I doubt you could beat me going around a corner. (I'm all grown up nowadays, and don't street race anyways.) Guy: Is that a Z? That thing looks like a beast, be sure to take good care of her (while completely ignoring his girlfriend in the passenger seat). Me: I will, you do the same. (Her being the jealous looking girl next to him.) I think he totally missed what I was saying. You'd have thought he'd never seen a car before. |

I dipped the hamburger, so it's hard to tell is a Nissan. Makes people have to look twice before they figure it out. |

Driving into Ocean City Md on Rt50 today. Traffic started to back up the closer we got to OC. Sitting at a stop light. Had a toyo suv with 4 teenage boys in it. The one yells at me. Asking how much the car costs. This is the third time someone has asked me this. So going for the shock factor. I told him $160,000 and pulled away. You could hear them talking about it. LMAO At the next light. They caught back up to me. I told them I had about $60.000 in it. Then the kid asked me how much HP. Going for the shock factor again. I told the kid 700 and change. LMAO I could see 4 jaws on the floor. LMAO. The light turn green and I let them hear the FI exhaust alitt;e as the traffic in front of me opened up alittle. The wife told me, I was a bad boy for leaving those boys like that. Hell, I was having fun with them. LMAO

Necrobump, but I only drive my Nismo in the spring/summer months when it's nice, so I had to post this one.
Driving home from work yesterday next to a Mercedes GL SUV; look over and the passenger was recording a video of my car as they paced me. I was just cruising ~65 miles an hour; not really sure what my exhaust sounds like in person from the outside, but it may have attracted their attention. My car is just lightly modded with HFCs, FI CF CBE, and dark tint for aesthetic purposes. Gotta love the unspoken compliment, though. |
