Who compliments your Z?

kenchan · 10-15-2010, 10:25 AM

slade -that's awesome. i barely see any 370z's in my area too so i get a lot of attention when i pull her out.

but im really not into getting attention.

funny though is i get more compliments on my G35C... it might be because most normal folks can relate more to a family oriented car (4 seater) rather than a 2 seater sports car.

doesn't help with the economy shot to hell, some people are still thinking "why would i get a sports car right now?"

I was once pulled over by 4 cops on foot coming out of a Starbucks. I was blocked in and had no where to go. Sergeant points to empty space and tells me to turn off my engine.

Since i live in a very small town outside of Las Vegas and I have the only 370z around. Everyone stops me and comments what a kick *** car the Z is... Love the attention!!!

My dad was driving my car earlier today and was pulled over by a cop. The cop just wanted to compliment the color and talk about the Z since he's a fellow 370 owner. He bought the 40th that I test drove last spring, another guy on the force has a PG one.

Dudes....always dudes. And NEVER from my BMW-owning friends. From them, I just get smirks and yawns. Although recently, I did have a guy in a GT2 pull up next to me and compliment the Z. That was kinda cool.

Middle aged men, and hot MILFs compliment my car. I did have some guy in a BMW chase me down in a parking lot to tell me he liked my car though. I've had more compliments from BMW owners than 350 owners actually

Probably about everyone, because the Z is super rare from where I'm living.

I've been to Bangkok, and I don't know if I'd want to drive my Z in that traffic.

Tuk-tuk drivers are nuts.

People in SoCal initially stop and stare at the car. The stuck up people usually look up or away afterwards and remark "oh its just a 350Z" and the more grounded people smile and compliment.

Yea, the traffic here is pretty bad but driving the Z here feels like a special occasion since Camrys and Accords are considered fancy cars here.
