Barely see them, which was also a selling point besides just being a Z in general.

I did see a black one this morning but outside of that, if its not a Z thats in our club, I might see one once every 3 weeks, and probably the same people lol

Not sure if it's me not going out much or what, but I rarely see any 370z's around my area as well.

Yeah there's a few. Unfortunately I'm moving to Texas on Tuesday though so I'm hoping the car scene is alive in Wichita Falls so I have someone to talk cars with!

no car under 100k is really rare here in socal so although not a really rare thing, I still see less of them than most other cars like porsches. BMWs, benzes, and audis ar elike accords here also so def see less Zs than any of those. 350Zs are somewhat common though, so a lot of people who don't know may group us in with them and think they see a lot of us around here.

Since I bought mine last Dec. I have only seen one other in my area. That was this past week. I have seen about 4 350's in the same time period. The 370 is a rare sight in my area for sure.

Even in a city as big as NYC the 370z is rare.

You see tons of more exotic cars before you will spot another "Z" ..and when you think you spotted one it turns out to be a 350..

The 370z is a rare creature.. they can only be found in the "wild" during our meets..... & when they run in herds the "Z" simply turns heads ...

I'd probably like it better if the Z were rare due to deliberately low production numbers or something like that. But they're "rare" due to low sales numbers.

But there are a lot around the DC area. Not as common as cat turds Mustangs, but I still see them around quite often.
