The Z's are pretty rare in my area and I've been asked twice if it was a Porche. I can see how someone who has no interest in cars can be mistaken though, my wife pointed out a Porche and asked if it was a Z like mine and its a recurring joke with her to ask whenever she sees one.

The cubby is awesome for space. Very convenient for storing items you need easy access to. Some people need nav, though.

I love the free space behind the passenger seat!

I, for one, don't. I think Porsches are ugly. I think the only resemblance between the two is the big rear end.

i have had a couple people think my Z was a porsche, i cant blame them either, the 370z does have similar lines to a porsche

Was at a Walgreens last night. A late 80's model 944 was outside and the owner was at the redbox getting a movie. As I walked by I told him he had a nice 300Z. I got the dirtiest look, then he laughed at me when I got in my Z.

My girlfriend was like why did he look at you like that. Too difficult to explain, so I told her it was a misunderstanding and that's why he laughed at me.

Sorry, but you better check that figure. It's $48k+. And since the 2014's have dropped in price - the MSRP is $46,328. That's Sport with navi.

I just got a best price quote from one of our dealers for $42,328.

I don't understand why he laughed.

Parts too are a lot cheaper.

That's because you are in Europe and the lower shipping costs make everything cheaper then here.

What is funny is I have twice had people ask if my GT-R is a Z, lol.

H2O_Doc 05-21-2014 01:21 AM

You should tell them "no, but I'm considering upgrading to a 370."

alcheng 05-21-2014 04:14 AM

now I'm wondering how many porsche owner(s) got people ask them "is that a Z...??" :bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

insocova 05-21-2014 06:46 AM

I had an 07 350Z and everyone asked "is that a porsche" questions. Then I bought an 07 Cayman S and everyone asked "is that a 350Z" questions. I haven't had the 370Z long enough to get any questions like that.

What really pissed me off was I told a girl I bought a 370z. She said whats that? Another girl said its just like my car. She drives a ******* nissan 2dr Altima and I don't even think it was the v6.

That's hilarious. When can we expect some new video footage of you and your GT-R speeding through downtown traffic? I hope it is soon as I truly enjoyed your earlier work. :tup:

I don't like being harassed and I have been harassed way too much by you. I really wish you would stop and not quote or reply to any other post I make especially bringing up old stuff from years ago where your flat out incorrect on some of them. Seriously at my limit with tolerating your crap.

90 ST 05-22-2014 02:31 AM

When i first got my 370Z, i got the "oh couldn't afford a 350Z?"
To which i had to explain this is the newer version.

I have no idea what you are talking about as I am not harassing you. I never have harassed you, in my opinion, and everything I write is true by the way. As a rule, hyper-sensitive people maybe should not post their thoughts and antics in public forums if they are afraid of how people may reply. If one feels offended or harassed when folks comment on posts, then maybe a public forum is not such a good idea. Just a thought.

I sincerely want to see some videos -- how is this harassing?

Congrats on the GT-R by the way.

I've never had anyone ask if it was a Porsche....but I do get lots of nice 350z comments. I don't bother to correct them.

Could be worse...I could own a Mustang :eek:

Never been asked if either of my Porsches are Z's. I was asked many times if my Z was a Porsche though.

b15 05-22-2014 03:06 PM

In my opinion, up until this current generation of Porsches, the Z is better looking. The current gen though are :yum:

Tazicon 05-22-2014 03:14 PM

They made the Cayman look too much like a 911, from the front you can't tell the difference................I still think the 987.2 looks better than the 981's.
