that's because you got the wrong bodystyle for that chassis... you needed to get a G35C.

I wouldn't say that Everybody stares at my Z when I go out but I know what you mean. I was actually thinking about this the other day. Sometimes, especially when I'm running errands, I just want to feel like I'm part of the traffic and I don't want to be stared at or egged on to race by some guy in a pickup truck. Oh well...the price to pay for such an extraordinary motor vehicle.

I don't mind being stared it, I feel important lol

But its true though, I often catch people breaking their necks, starting, thumbs up..and just before winter a dad driving his son (I imagine) and the son had his phone hanging out of the car taking video/pictures...

I will say when I'm driving the golf during winter I get totally disrespected...people cutting me off, going first when at the opposite stop sign, looks of disgust by people in higher end vehicles...total opposite in the Z

And Montreal had tons of high end vehicles...so I guess its a looker

I will agree that I never get any stares driving around when I'm in Charlotte. When I go to Raleigh though I get thumbs up.

I never get thumbs up (even from other Z owners when I wave). Last time I was in Raleigh NC I had someone in a Z33 and someone in a S30 give me a thumbs. I'm happy with that, I didn't get this car to be flashy.

OP -- I'm from SoCal and can relate. I've noticed drivers lurk around when on the fwy. The other day, some random dude took photos while I was eating a sandwich where I can see him. Let's face it, it may not be over the top on the price range but it is a nice car. You just do not see a lot of it on the street --- maybe because a few are on the tracks
