Because they look nothing alike, but then again most people don't know much about cars

I would take it as a great compliment as Porsches do look beautiful and expensive so it is all good

True, it'd take a someone who's full-retard regarding cars...but the overall shape (mainly, the side profile) definitely reeks of a Porsche shape.

Either way, they were an idiot though lol.

Um, no, my car was by itself in a driveway. I happen to think a 370Z and a 911 have many things in common, most striking is the fender bulges, if you look at a 911 and a 370Z head-on, the similar silhouette is most apparent.

I also think a 370Z is better-looking than a 911, more modern, the 911 despite it's upgrades over the years still looks basically the same as it did decades ago.

I have twice actually, one from an old lady and from a high school kid I was driving to the mall today to get some clothes for this date I have tomorrow with this insanely hot chick, just had to add that, and some guy in a IS250 comes flying up on my a$$, and im thinking, ugh, here we go again, then he pulls alongside me, 4 people in the car were gawking in every which way at Roxy, then I got 2 thumbs up, put a big smile on my face, love this car man.

We can assume Tyrell just goes in his greasy jeans to pick up his dogmeat chicks . Ty, the very hot ones are usually worth a new pair of pants.
