The 350z is a little turtle. I never liked them and I am a Z person through and through. When the 370z came out I wanted one. Go figure.

My opinion is; I don't care about strangers opinions.

My favorite was the much older crowd ( I'm 31). which didn't help my case with my girlfriend because she always said it was a midlife crisis car. I always was a fan of them asking about the Z, whilst letting me know that they used to have a 240 or 260 280Z. I always thought that was so cool. Now I'm one of those guys that talks about the cars I used to own. I've always just liked talking to z guys, all gens. I bought my first z around 22.... So around that age having something to talk about with a 60 something your old dude was pretty cool. Cross plaining the generations of sorts.

How many times have you all been told "cool Porsche, bro"? I get that a couple of times a month. I just say, "thanks!"

I've had mine since October 2009 and I've never had anyone ask me if it was a Porsche. Most either don't know what it is, or tell me they like my 350Z.

To be honest, 95% of those comments come from women. So maybe hang around more women??? LOL!

If we are talking feel, to me it feels a bit like a combination of an MX-5 and an E46 M3, both of which I am a big fan of.

I get it too.

Here's a picture at some race track of a Z and a Porsche. A quick look and you'll be hard pressed to tell the two apart.

Me too. I also get the “nice Porsche” comment more frequently than I would expect. I usually just roll with it. To my mind the Z is the best sports car value. I’ve owned a ‘78 280, ‘06 350 and ‘18 370.
