I do see a lot of 350Z's and I sometimes mistake a few of them with a body kit and wheels for 370's, same with older Nismo's. But honestly, 1 a week if I'm lucky.
I'm in So Cal too, and I rarely see another 370Z - I see more 350Zs by far than I do 370Zs.

I've only ever seen one on the road, but both dealerships in my city are full of them. I guess no one in north Louisiana wants a Z.

There are about 9 370Z's in the Midwest by Chicago, and I have the only White Touring Ha I love it!!! But I have only seen 3 different ones on the Road... The only reason I know there are about 9 in the area is I called around to all of the Dealerships and thats the total # that was in the area.

I've only ever seen three live ones ever. There are four in town and two up Island. In all my time driving around (and I drive around a lot in the summer) that's it - three. Of course being so rare the 370Z gets gawked at ALL the time. Its crazy....

You know how, when you by a..... say a VW beetle, then suddenly it seems everyone has one?
Well, I've never seen another 370 in our town of 75,000 all year, then the other day I pull into my buildings underground, there's another 370Z....same color.... three spaces from me.

I used to see a lot of 350Zs, so many I considered not buying a 370Z thinking there'd be 3 or 4 at every stop light, but due to the weak economy (actually just the economy correcting itself after unsustainable growth to support debt spending) and the majority of people being very poor financial managers, combined with the banks getting back to rational loan policies, and I doubt we'll see many 370Zs on the road for a good many years..

Since I started noticing Zs sometime in August I have seen only ever seen 1 on the road. This was when I was first thinking about getting one, the driver was a real nice guy, PG Touring/Sport with Nav. I have seen signifigantly more Astons, Bentleys, Maseratis, you name it in the past week than I have seen Zs. I really do feel like I'm in an exclusive club. Even more so when someone in a car that costs 4x's the amount mine does stops and looks at it in a parking lot.

Saw one yesterday. PG with sports. We were crossing each other about 40 MPH. I flashed my headlights. That caught him/her totally off guard. He/she hit the turn signal first by accident and as he/she was passing me flashed the headlights. Couldn't see the driver due to tint. At least I got a flash back this time. Usually I get nothing when I wave/flash headlights
