Oh and on full coverage I pay (mind you I live in Las Vegas where rates are pretty high) for the same exact coverage on both cars although the Z is a 2011 and the Posrche is a 2010 (With way fewer miles), $1,019 every 6 months for the 370Z Sport and I pay $823 every 6 months for the Cayman S.

Yeah, the only way someone would ask if a Porsche is a Z is if they are not at all knowledgable about cars and they know someone who has a Z. Otherwise, anyone who knows about the Z is going to be able to know a Porsche when they see one.

I get the Porsche thing once in awhile, or just "What is that!!?"

The 350 thing is annoying sometimes but I think thats a testament to not seeing that many 370's around and Nissan being low key on the 370 release.

Funniest thing was at the gym outside I see some guy walking around my Z, checking it out. Did 2 walk arounds lol.

As I walk up he's like "Nice Z, I was cross shopping the Z but I decided to go with my Altima coupe, its a beast"

I'm thinking...sure you were cross shopping lol. Don't even think it was the V6

I bet the only thing he compared between the two was the gas mileage

Nissan made a good choice there, I was looking at the Altima coupe, liked the look and 4 seats, but they only make it as a 4cyl, 2.5L!
