Nissan 370Z Forum  

What's the worst insult you've gotten about your Z?

I've had " Jap Crap" and " poor man's Porsche" ....both jealous and ignorant comments in my view.

I think it is almost always jealousy in some form or another... they are under the impression that we, as Z owners, are douches because we are somehow flaunting this car, mocking them for being beneath us, when truth be told we just love Nissan and either can afford one or saved up to actually have one.

I never bought this car to mock or flaunt, I bought it because of the bang for buck and styling, and I came from a 350. Truth be told, since 2004 when I bought the 350 to now with the 370 Ive always had compliments from guys and a lot of girls, and always negative comments from guys in crappy cars (civics, scions, the like) or pick up trucks. But never have any girls at least to my face made a negative comment.

I have called my car a Poor Man's Porsche" since before I even I bought it. I guess that would be my biggest insult I have received as well................from myself! lol

You called? I love me my Porsche. But when bang for your buck comes into play, there's no doubt that the 370z is a fine candidate and a proper sports car for that matter. That being said, hopefully people here haven't taken my username the wrong way. I'm referring to myself as the poor man and the 370 being the affordable option with qualities, that of a Porsche...

Furthermore, my buddies have bashed on pretty much every sports car I've owned. The only car they've genuinely respected is my 94 Volvo 940 DD. With that said, I know its all in good fun but trolls will be trolls and theres not a doubt in my mind that when I do pick up my 370 in the next few weeks, my buddies will bullsh!t with a passion to make me regret my decision.
