Mine had sat on the lot for over a year and all the techs thought they where gonna get a super sweet deal. Guess I swooped in and ****** it up. My service writer who I had a pretty good relationship, has stopped all flirting and has gone to straight bitch mode. She thought my NISMO would be her next car.

Hello there
Had the car for one whole day now

In the last 24 hours I have had a Porsche keep overtaking and dropping back on the M1
Then a random man in a van shout and swear loudly out of his window
An Audi A4 driver wave and smile with thumbs up
And allot of staring as its brand new and very clean

Lol this car attracts zero attention in the Bay Area. So many Z's and so many exotics to outshadow them. I feel very inconspicuous in it.

Similar in Fairfield County, CT. Got attention once in the month I've owned it.

Had a Biker-probably mid to late 50's say he'd sell both of his Harley's to get a ~Z~ like mine... And was persistent about me selling it to him.

I noticed only Lexus IS owners, both old and new, try to race or rev on me. Oh, and a Dodge pickup that one time. Overall, I think people just look at my cars because they're a bit loud. Otherwise, most people don't care.

I, too, have been flipped off repeatedly in that car. One time I was heading to lunch and turned down this little access road and a couple in some small SUV were coming the other way. Well at the closest point of approach I notice the passenger (the girl) flipping me the bird. I was perplexed. I had no idea why. I wasn't doing anything to them. And I had a base that was aesthetically stock. I've had all kinds of people just drive by and flip me off for absolutely no reason. And these are people that are passing me. Not the other way around like you might expect. If I did pass someone they would honk or flash their lights trying to be citizen police. Too funny especially when they're doing 20 under the posted speed on a highway.

I'll tell you what... since I dumped the Z everything changed. I now only get stares because people are often confused by younger people drivings 911s. Only twice I've had any type of ****. I've always had an issue with douchebags driving big trucks and it still continues but beyond that, no problems anymore. And if anything, I've become much more aggressive in my daily driving.

In conclusion, I think the general public hates that car and the drivers of those cars. My advice... Buy a 911.

You even think that you're fugly, and your mother dresses you fun. And it's that clown suit you wear too.


Sorry, but you left an opening. Someone had to take it.

I'm not a human being. I'm an alien hybrid. That's what I put down when asked what race I am.

My girlfriend flashed her boobs at me once when I was coming home. I guess that counts

well my car tends to attract Camaros and mustangs when parked in the back of a parking lot for some reason or another. I'll pop into best buy to get something and come out and its like a bug light but for domestic trash. It wont even be good mustangs either, some body kit ricer 03' mustang or 96 Camaro with chrome handles and windshield wipers.
