Nissan 370Z Forum  

Seems like noone even knows the 370Z exsists...

I find it amusing when it happens. My little cousin did it...her jaw dropped when she saw it on Thanksgiving, and goes..."YOU GOT A PORSCHE?!" But then the opposite occurred

But then the opposite occurred with this girl I've started seeing. She saw it, her jaw dropped...and she said "You got a 370? Those only just came out!". And then my mental jaw dropped, cuz this girl knows her cars, and thats nothing but a bonus in my book.

My 370Z causes near-accidents in CT and has the strange ability to force BMW, Audi, Evo and WRX-STi and even Porsche owners into feats of utter douchebaggery.

I'll be honest, I've never, EVER, had a car turn as many heads as my baby does, people seriously break their necks looking at it, I like looking through the little windows behind the seats just to get peoples reactions without them noticing me scoping them out, its utterly hilarious, and yeah people that dont know cars usually think its a 350 at first, and most of the douchebaggery comes from 350 drivers I see on the street, jealousy is a motherfukker.

I agree, I've never had so many people lock their eye's on the 370z, in comparison to other cars i've owned. I love it even my wife is like "Look, they are staring at us!"

350Z's have not been bad to me, a lot of them gave me thumbs up, or just stare at the stop light.

I was going to get the Z tinted today, and the guys at the audio/tint shop had never even seen one. I was kind of shocked, but at the same time I like the fact that they are not super common in this area.

I stayed at the Westin recently and used the valet when I returned to the hotel after dinner.

Next morning, I checked out and gave the valet my ticket for him to retrieve my car and then waited in the front with folks that were waiting for their cars (either by valet or their sig other).

My VERY yellow 370 came slowly along the drive and I just waited till it was parked before I started walking towards it. I had detailed it the day before so it looked spectacular driving up. All I heard was, "Wow", "Man, will you LOOK at that", and my favorite..."Honey, what IS that?". No car guys among them, I guess.

I non-chalantly walked up to my car, tipped the valet, and drove off. Slowly. Peeked at the rear mirror and yes, quite a few heads were turned my way.

It was awesome!

the one thing I hope I can say about the 350Z is, there are a lot of guido douches driving them

I believe the 370Z will nix this, I saw a dude valet park his 2003/04 350Z and get out like it was a Lambo over the summer, all I could do was laugh but I guess he was cooler than me with his Chanel "CC" earrings
