I've only seen 2 in north nj since their release

I see about one a week here in Miami. Which is surprising. I see about 5000 350z every day.

Only seen 4 here in Vegas since they launched, and one of them was a tourist from Ca. As far as I know I'm only one of 4 here in the Vegas area. Mine is yellow touring sport, there is another one exactly like mine but automatic, a Red sport, and a PG non-sport. Talking with some of the guys at the dealer, they have sold more but stated that most people either save them as weekend toys or are from out of state sourcing one here. As rare as the car is here it doesn't draw too much attention. Then again we reguarly have exotics running down the road daily so a Z isn't going to stand out too much.

I didn't even know the 370z even existed until a couple of months back.

You must be drivin in the wrong part of LA ;) .

There are a bunch of us out here and I've seen a bunch out here in the San Fernando Valley that aren't on this forum.

No, I'm pretty sure I'm in the right part of LA. ;) There's just way too much money round these parts. :rolleyes:

The only 370s I've seen have been while over at work in the valley, weirdly enough. Maybe if I do buy one, I'll be the only one in my neighborhood?
:happydance:

Yeah, I've had my car since January, and only seen 2 all year in MA.

Hey Steve - Where in CT are you? I live in Southington and just bought a blue 370...it's getting a clear bra installed as I type this.

I've actually only seen ONE other 370 in CT so far... a white one on I691E a few weeks ago.

So you get a text message and then what? You go running to the valet stand with the text message saying your car is doing 140mph about 30 miles away? That system would just make me nuts. My car will never have a valet's a$$ behind the wheel.

My Z is about the most exotic car in town......I've only seen one other, though my friend (Zpirate here on the forum) just broomed his Vette and picked up a PG 370 from Lou Fusz to go with his tricked out 350.....:-)

I see maybe one other 370z (not counting the one at UH I see) a week. They have popped up a bit more the past few months, which is good to know they are selling but I like having a rare car.
I have a lot of people who call it a 350z, but once they see it up close they realize they are completely different.

I just saw my first yellow touring non-sport 370Z this morning at the Nissan dealership, it looked BEAUTIFUL in that color. :eek:
I might actually consider yellow over red. Don't know yet.

It's really too bad that yellow won't be available in 2010. :shakes head:

I can remotely disable the car

An older lady (40's I'd say) in my town owns the carbon gray sport, I see her a lot and I saw an older guy who was prob at least 65 yrs old driving one, I forget what color. I saw one in Blue Bell, PA which was white/sport combo

I've had mine since September but have been looking for them since they first became available, and I've only seen 2 others in this area, and 2 others at the Jersey shore.

We should exchange notes on good backroads, speed traps, etc.

I have seen one for the last 6 months on the fwy. I have seen more Aston Martin Vantages than the Z.

Weird.

by my house there are actually three within a 2 mile radius... but outside of those three i never see any other ones on the road. I saw MAYBE 3 or 4 other ones since their release on the road, traveling on major highways and town roads in a busy rural area too. They are just not around and i love it. Same feeling as when i had my s2000 back in 2002... i saw one red sport with hfc other than the three i know of. Mine is PW, another PG, and a MB. Mines the most hooked up of the three with just tint, springs, test pipes, and g3's.

I baught my intakes off the guy with the blue one as it burned a whole in his AC line and he un installed them. I snatched them up for 250 and installed them correctly so i made out on that deal.
