Some younger lady took a picture of it the other day when we were stopped at a red light. I looked over and cell phone pointing at me, glad I have tint

My 370z generally draws some attention depending on the venue I'm at. Naturally when I'm with the GTR guys and other $100k+ vehicles, it is overlooked.

The most important thing is that I still stare at it

The lines on this car are gorgeous. It's currently the best looking car in Nissan's stable in my opinion and it's a 5 year old platform...

Honestly everytime I drive...I get some broken necks, a handful of thumbs up and random pic takers every other time.

I doubt it would happen as much if I was completely stock but for sure there aren't many 370's around here.

I'll get more stares than Porsche's and other cars double the price, thats a testament to the sexy lines of the Z, thats for sure. Nissan got that right at least....

I know the feeling. I've had people take pictures of my car while it is parked and I am having a drink at starbucks. Lately, however, I have not had the same attention it used to get when I first got it. That would be about two years now.

People stare all the time while I am in my car. Of course I look like I'm an 18 year old even though I am 32. A cop pulled me over a month ago to verify if the car belonged to me. He came to my car with my info and said yeah everything checks out. I'm like no kidding it's my car.

It also doesn't help that this car cost the previous owner 45k, so maybe they can still smell that original msrp?

Ive had my Z for a month now, and I have only seen 1 other Z here in Denver, not very common in Denver Colorado.

Couple weeks back was having dinner with my GF, I parallel parked in front of the restaurant. She pointed out a guy riding a bike kept looking back on my Z and almost ran into the side mirror of the car parked in front of mine lol.

I get a lot of compliments and looks. The only problem in my area is that it is more negativity due to jealousy. I don't even want to begin

More like everyone is try to pass the Nismo Z. Was cruising home passing folks in the left lane at 75mph. Some nut job in a work body truck thought I wasn't going fast enough. You know the story, ride your bumper, flash the lights, etc. It's not like I was poking along. I just wasn't going to move over and get stuck behind slower traffic. If he would have been courteous, I would have moved over. Oh well, aggressive drivers are the pits. I forgot how it was when I owned by 1990 300ztt. It's all coming back to me now.
