Drive Thru LOL
 
Finished ordering and pulled to the next window to pay for the food.

Me: Good Evening.
Clerk: Hi Sir, Nice car!
Me: Thank you. I like it.
Clerk: What kind of car is it?
Me: Its a 370z.
Clerk: I have never heard of that brand before. Is that a new company?
Me: Nah, its a Nissan.
Clerk: speechless.
Me: Smiled and said see you later.

I just got the "Is that a 350z?" this past weekend when paying at a drive-thru. I replied, "Nope, 370z".

He just looks at me and says "damn". I thought that was funny.

I get that every week.

Everytime I go to the starbucks by my house I always get, "Nice car what is it?"

JARblue 07-15-2015 08:48 AM

I've gotten some pretty good looks when I respond to the "what kind of car is it" question with, "You know, I'm really not sure. I just found it running in some guy's driveway."

FPenvy 07-15-2015 09:08 AM

I cant even count how many times I've gotten "that's a beautiful Porsche" when at a drive thru or other places.

6spd 07-15-2015 09:13 AM

ive only seen a handful in my area all this time.. so a non-car person would absolutely not know wat our cars is.

benji 07-15-2015 12:49 PM

i was at steak and shake yesterday and there were three guys hanging out the window (including manager) asking about it. they had me rev it up in the drive through, the mini van lady behind me was not pleased. they then received a sound system demo, that thoroughly ticked her off. There is a guy who works at hardees who gives me free food every time i come by, i gave him a ride one time after i saw his interest. a little WOT / sliding action = free hardeez boys FYI.

I see maybe 3-4 a week where I live here in Indy.

cranzy 07-15-2015 01:34 PM

I was coming out of Sears the other day and an old Japanese lady was like:
OooOoo... Very nice car. It must be fast!
I was like... yes, it's Japanese!

LMAO. True story

mishuko 07-15-2015 01:42 PM

I had someone honk at me because my arms were too short and i was getting out of the vehicle to put my parking pass through the machine...

guy was in an escalade or something. :(

Uxi 07-15-2015 01:54 PM

I see a couple 350's but only rarely see another 370. Even rarer to see a NISMO.

I don't like the new NISMOS, but that's just me.

jaedub 07-15-2015 03:14 PM

Cashier: "Nice 350z bro!"
Me: "It's actually a 37.........thanks"

I like the old one a lot. So do all the dudes driving ragged-out Civics apparently. This is why I've got 20% tint.:ughdance:

jshare1 07-15-2015 03:49 PM

took my Z back home to upstate NY, not a common vehicle around there, does nothing but break necks and it was stock at that point.

I don't really get that. I love the new rims. Were one of the big points in getting it.

Even if Nissan didn't feel the need for four more NISMO logos :rofl2:

Z_ealot 07-15-2015 04:25 PM

seems like it's always a drive thru that this stuff happens....had a guy in a bmw finish ordering his food behind me and then proceed to start asking me questions about what type of car it is and how beautiful the color of blue as and how he has never seen one of our cars that color before lol

RN SHARK 07-15-2015 04:35 PM

I went to the local Z Club meeting last week and guys in the club kept referring to my car as a 350. I left shortly after and have held off on paying for a membership.

Really? REALLY? I'm no expert on Z's but shoot, if in doubt walk around to the back of the car and look at the little silver emblem!

The turn signals alone are a dead giveaway. The only excuse for mistaking the two are if a) you're not really a car person anyway or b) you're more than 200 meters away and only saw it for like a second.

Montez 07-15-2015 05:27 PM

Out here in the LA area it just doesn't happen nearly like you guys in other areas, so many nice a** cars out here. If you are in a Bentley or Ferrari you get that ;-)

benji 07-15-2015 05:33 PM

there are actually more 2015 nismo Z's here than previous. 3 in town for sure, and only 2 other older than that i believe. in the year ive owned my 370z we have gone from 4 in town to 10 :/

DatsunFTW 07-15-2015 06:05 PM

I went to a restaurant in Naples and a group of elders were sitting at the table outside watching me as I pulled in. When I got out of the car they had this dumbfounded look on their face. I skipped the talk and asked, "You thought it was a Porsche didn't you?" They replied with, "Yeah! We couldn't tell what it said on the badge." (I painted mine to match with the paint) "Well it is a Nissan."

"Ohhhhhhhhhh...."

Because the majority don't speak English.

Birdfan67 07-15-2015 06:36 PM

Umm no...lol. Dallas isn't too much better in that regard....lol. :eek:

Jordo! 07-15-2015 07:43 PM

I get that too.

Partially, I expect, because I removed the Nissan "hamburgers"...

I also have encountered people who try and insist that its actually a 350Z, and I must be mistaken... :rolleyes:

So, I tell them its really just a newer version of the Datsun 240, but who's counting? :p
