First thing people ask/say when they see you and your Z? No they don't ask nor saying anything... They just rev up their VTECs!

"What kind of car is that"

me: a Nismo Z

"What?"

Me: Its the Nismo version of the 370z

"Huh?"

Me: Nis-mo stands for nissan motorsports, its the motorsports version of the 370z?

"What"

Me: You know how Nissan sells the 370?

"No"

Me: You know about the "Z-Car" made by Nissan? 300, 350, 370?

"No"

Me: Ok just forget it, its a car and has a spoiler.

"A what"

--Later shows same person pic of a Murcelago roadster--

One of these two:

"Nice car!"

"Is that YOUR car?"

zguynate 10-31-2012 11:13 PM

"How fast have you gotten it to?"

I hate that question.

DIGItonium 10-31-2012 11:20 PM

"Wanna race?" Is what I hear every once in awhile, but it's for laughs. The first stemmed from a late 80s Camry.

Second one was recent, when a big truck pulled next to me in the parking lot of a liquor store. The driver said "Wanna race?" She laughed and said "I'm kidding!" Her male passenger wasn't too thrilled. :confused:

There was this other time when I'm waiting to turn left when a car pulls up next to me and the lady would make race car engine sounds.

Pintsize725 10-31-2012 11:22 PM

Forgot one: "Can you even see over the dash?"

SoCalBoy 10-31-2012 11:52 PM

" is that a 350Z or 370Z?'
" nice ride, how much do they cost?"
" I like the 350 but the 370 looks way better"
" can I take a spin?"

Z_ealot 10-31-2012 11:56 PM

one i get most of the time is "that is a beautiful color of blue on your car"

"Must be easy to get any girl you want" I just tell them, tell that to my wife.

Liam370z 11-01-2012 01:26 AM

*i once got this "is that the v8 o v6.." i was like "there's no v8"
*"sweet ride bro"
*"how much did it cost"
*"is it a RWD?"
No porsche comments yet...

livethefunk 11-01-2012 01:44 AM

I don't get "how fast is it" but I do get "how fast have you gone". Most of the time when people ask me what kind of car it is and I say "it's a 370z" they also need to be told next that it's a Nissan.

Shamu 11-01-2012 07:04 AM

"Why are you driving a chick car?"

shadoquad 11-01-2012 07:07 AM

"sweet ride"

I get that one a lot from random folks.

"How much p*ssy do you get in this car? Must be a lot" - seriously

Read T 11-01-2012 07:51 AM

Mostly I get "nice car"
All this week though I've had at least 3 people say "you have a brake light out". Don't know why.

B&W_Evader 11-01-2012 09:32 AM

The main ones I got, at least from people who know me is.

Nice Car - Thanks
Have you had it over a hundred yet. - Just got it, it's not even broken in yet.
Then it was how fast have you gone in it. - 136, then they stopped asking.

Now it's more.
You drove it in the rain today? - Yeah, I haven't washed or waxed it in over 2 weeks.

Think I'm too old for anyone to be yelling smack at me on the street. :shakes head:

livethefunk 11-01-2012 11:07 AM

I live in Ohio so I also always get people asking me if I drive it in the winter. Only older people talk to me about the car (I'm only 25). People my age usually just stare at me or try and drive past me speeding.

The Amuse kit always gets "nice Porsche"
Recently we both drove to the same place and parked one behind the other. This older lady (50ish) says:

That's a beautiful Porsche to my wife
I said its a Nissan
She said no way I'm from Germany that's a Porsche
I said its my car and so is the blue one, they are the same car
She says no way
I said yep I put the kit on it myself
She then rolled her eyes and walked away

It seriously ruined my night lol

When I first got it, the first question was, "How fast have you gone with it?"
The one I got the most from people at work (or even those that I don't know) say, "Jeez, it must be nice to get a car like this!" I reply, "I've been working for 39 years at the same place, my wife 28 years, we have one grown child, my wife and I have been saving for a car for a long time and we know how to manage our money!" To that they say, "Oh."

DEpointfive0 11-01-2012 01:38 PM

My guy friends usually say "You can afford this???" Or, "How do you fit???"
And the girls usually say is this a 350? And the swift reply is, "no, this is the 370Z" lol
Random people always ask the power

Or I'll get a compliment, which is nice, yesterday a woman gave me a thumbs up because I gunned it (within the speed limit of course) lol

I get that a lot too... And the fastest was 115-120 when I first picked up the car... (Not street racing or anything) I just had no idea, driving from Austin to Dallas at night and I wasn't used to the speedo being sooooo tiny, and as I was driving I was like damn this thing makes a lot of road noise... Looked down... Uh, OHHHHHH, THAT'S the problem, lol
And I slowed down

EDIT: not the fastest I've gone, lol, I was on CC with my 2001 Toyota Avalon at 123, lol

How is someone going to argue with THE OWNER about what model it is? What did she expect? This? :

Lady: Thats a Porsche

You: No, its 370Z, i own it

Lady: Im from Germany, i can tell its a Porsche

You: Oh crap, you know what, your right, i never noticed, i can't believe its a Porsche this whole time i thought it was a Z! Thank you so much for brining this to my attention
