How much attention does your 370z get?
 
Unshamefully copied and pasted from the 370z Nismo section as I could not find a similar thread for us non Nismo folks.http://www.the370z.com/nismo-370z/44...nismo-get.html

I love my 370z and think it looks great, but I had no idea it would be getting so much attention on the street when I bought it. Maybe I am just so used to the look of the Z (350 and 370) that I don't think it stands out so much, but man I swear it is almost like I am driving a Ferrari.

I have been getting so many looks, and so many people coming up to me and saying "Wow beautiful car" and things along that line... I swear if at any point in the future I go 1 week without somebody saying something or staring me down I will feel like something is off

Sometimes I feel like this car would be perfect for a pedophile because young boys ( girls for me ) seems to especially love the nismo

When stopped at a stop light, my passengers usually notice people checking out the car. But they do it discreetly by staying at my blind spot so I can't see them :D

njobe89 07-02-2014 12:59 PM

i personally haven't seen anyone check it out... just people at work tell me it's nice

Not so much here in LA or the Marina as there are nicer cars everywhere, and everyone is pretty immune to nice cars by now. The most looks I get are ones parked next to me at a light, and I always notice them looking at the wheels/brake calipers.

ive noticed that too. some people in the next lane will not pull all the way up to the light or the car in front of them so they can look at the z :tup:

It's great to hear that your 370Z gains many looks and smiles. Here is
one for you... Last year I had Mike The Powder Coater and forum member
as well powder coat my brake calipers in a Inferno Orange color..
I swear this took the looks and smiles to another level.
Enjoy and daily your 370Z.

I get some looks, not tons though considering I work in a pretty well off area. When I drive through the other areas randomly though, I do get the looks for sure though :) Makes me feel all tingly inside haha

Very little. I suspect I would get more attention in a lifted bro-truck around here. Although, some dude did compliment my wheels yesterday, as I was leaving Home Depot.

Common issue.

:iagree:

I usually park away from the door bangers when I take the Z to the store. I regularly see people walk by craning there necks around to look. It is a great looking car. While I live in a fairly nice area, Z's and especially 370Z's are not seen very often. Here, they are unique. I like that.

How much attention does your 370z get?
 
Not sure if it's just the bright *** blue color but I get compliments and turn heads literally every time I stop for gas. I remember once an older gentleman just say inside the passenger seat without asking to "check out the interior". Kind of creeped me out. Lol

People look at the Z cause it's not a very common vehicle, unlike the boring mustangs and Camaros........I actually turn the other way when I see those.

You can add Challengers and Vettes to that as well. Driving from Kingman to Vegas just about every other car is one of these 4.

Around here, Z's are not very common. A few times, I'll be driving on I-70 and wondering why some idiot is pacing me and swerving all over the place and my wife will be like "He's saying 'nice car!' and I smile and wave and say "Thanks, please don't crash into it OK?" :D

ayrton88 07-02-2014 04:55 PM

I've mentioned in other threads the excess attention it gets is one of the only things I don't like about the Z. I should have known better because it sure got my attention right away. I'd rather be a little more discreet. I was used to BMW coupes and sedans which don't draw so much attention. That said, I do appreciate a car that isn't in the shop every other week. Man, Bimmer quality really sucks.
