Really? I haven't had anyone say that to me and I'm a minority as well.

I also receive compliments from all my friends and co-workers. My parents thinks this is a ferrari or some exotic car, I guess they still don't understand.

Bad part is... there are a lot of haters, jealous kids with no respect for others, I've been hit with rocks twice, once with a half full soda can from the incoming lane, a long black marker pen line and a nasty spit in my wheels while I was in a public parking. And this is my first month of ownership.

I'll probably have to tint my windows and blackout everything, put some chrome 22" spinners to make people think the car belongs to some gangster or mafia member.
Wow that sucks man. I can't believe there are people out there who do this Crap.

Unfortunately cannot drive my z to work because of the parking lot speed bumps. I don't think the car can clear those f'ing things. Besides, being only a mile from home, the car wouldn't even get warmed up.

Yeah I definitely don't see the point of driving to work if you live only a mile away. Unless you're trying to show off that sweet Nismo

I'm in the same boat about distance. But where I work there are so many construction going on, detours, rocks flying from dump trucks and potholes that I just take my "huptie" truck and don't have to worry about it.
