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.

Why does everyone confuse it for the 350z? It's so very different o_O

I attended the largest car show in Nebraska a few weeks ago and all of the people running the car show (4 or 5 people thought the day) referred to my car as "that 350z". When I was parking "oh just follow that other 350z" and "what is this 350z here, does it even make noise" (joking I hope). Etc. all the 350z owners knew that I was different. I don't get it, they look so different to me.

Also I was the only 370 at the whole show, which was kinda cool but, at the same time, I wanted to meet some fellow 370Z enthusiasts.

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."
