I have had some people call it a 350Z.

but the best one was "I cant believe you own an aston martin"

When my wife's best friend heard that I bought a 370z she said "OMG...I cant believe you just bought a $50,000 car!".

I took it as a compliment being that it was just over $30,000 :tup:

Don't worry about it. People are just excited for you and envious in a good way.

I've had people think my car was a Porsche. No one's thought my car was a 350Z, but I've had a couple people who didn't know that anything after the 350Z existed. I've also gotten a "I never knew Nissan made such nice looking cars"

My favorite was this convo between me and a guy at a redlight across near team nissan in Marietta.

Guy: "Thats a 370z right?"

Me: "Yes sir, it is."

Guy: "Isn't that the smaller version of the 380z? They made it a little bit smaller, and a smaller engine as well didn't they?"

I didn't know what to say? I was just like ummm come on redlight turn green turn green turn green.....Green light, accelerator=to the floor.


Haha I run from crazy people! But no seriously, it was amusing, and it doesn't bother me anymore. All I know is, all the girls my age absolutely love it and I have a BLAST every time I press the start button.

I get the 350 thing all the time, but as mentioned before, it comes from people who wouldn't know the difference between most cars. Doesn't bother me. I'm secure with the size of my penis extension.
The 350 thing also comes from people who somehow think that their Fusions, Chargers and Camrys are remotely close to the NASCAR cars with the same names on their bodies.
Despite their ignorance, these people usually mean well and are trying to be complimentary.

On the other hand, I can't tell the difference between a BMW 328i and a 335i until I see the badge.

One of my friends told me the 328i has one exhaust pipe on the left side, whereas the 335i has 2 with one on either side. Of course I mean towards the left/right edges of the rear bumper, not the sides of the car.

Exhaust tips give it away :tup:

I have a friend who keeps referring to it as a 360Z. :shakes head:

He means well. Just a bit of an idiot. :icon14:

If I can see the exhaust, I can probably see the badge, too.
Besides, I wasn't asking for tips on how to be an expert in identifying 3-series BMWs, but thanks, anyway. :rofl2:

I can see the exhaust tips from further away than I can read the badge, so thats what I use to tell the difference. We've forced you to become an expert in BMW 3 series, lol. :icon17:

There is a guy at work who swears he passes a 390z everyday on the way to work, I think he needs glasses

Waiz 03-06-2011 01:50 PM

Not everyone is a car person and knows what they're looking at.

Some lady said to me the other day "Did I park to close to your Porsche?" I didn't bother correcting her :tup:

SophiaZ 03-06-2011 02:19 PM

I only got the 350z thing once I think. Ive more often gotten " Is that a Porshe?" i usually say " No, its better IMO". But I also get alot of "What kind of car is that? Its beautiful and the headlights are awesome" i say" a Nissan 370z and Thank you and I know haha"
