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

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

(disclaimer: I am not a pedophile, just sayin)

Common issue.

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.

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.

I posted this in the Best Compliments thread but since this is also about Fast Intentions, I'm posting here as well.

I'd put this on top of my list:

Left home early enough to get to work by 8AM. I jumped on the fwy and it was packed. Traffic news says an accident on the 210 jamming the 5. What normally took 25 minutes ended up being 1:15 on the road with 5 minutes more to get there.

Along Tampa Blvd about 3 blocks before I turn right, I took off from the stop light going from the left lane where I was at onto the right lane but accelerated pretty quick to beat everyone else. As soon as I got to the middle lane out comes a black and white with his lights flashing. I did not even see him and was caught off guard by this. To be honest I did not know if I even went above the speed limit (45) ore not, all I knew is I got there fast. I stopped just before the next light and I was mad at myself ready to tell the officer "I'm sorry, you got me". I was also thinking great, I have no plates in the front, car's pretty loud, I'm gonna get a hefty fix it ticket on top of a speeding ticket.

Officer steps out of his car, with his partner sitting inside, officer came to my side smiling and stuck his hand out to shake mine, all while I was telling him how sorry I was and you got me. Told him about the traffic I was just it and rushing to get to work, etc. He was talking over me at the same time saying "no, no, you're cool. I just wanted to stop you because I'm car guy and I love what you did with your car.....and that exhaust, it sounds really good. I'm not giving you a ticket. I'm just a car guy and my partner even knows that, so you're cool." How lucky can I be! I WAS SO HAPPY!!!! and grateful. I said cool! we can talk about cars all day long Officer xxxxxxx. He asked Where did you get that exhaust? I told him it was made by Fast Intentions in Simi Valley. He said it sounded really good. "When you took off, I had to stop and talk to you about it".. In my excitment, I offered to give him two $10 gift cards from work that I readily hand out when I meet people and I was thinking to myself, oh ****, I hope he does not think it's a bribe, I was just happy. He turned it down of course. He said no you're cool. I told him how cool he was and gave him my business card and said let's connect and talk about cars. We can even go to a car meet if you want. He said, cool and shook my hand and let me off. I waved back at his partner sitting in the patrol car. I drove off laughing at myself and about what just happened the rest of the way to work.

This my friends is the best compliment I had so far.

I give my Z lot's of attention...I tell her how sexy she is, and racy. And smarter than the other sports cars. But sometimes she gets mad when I want to just hang out with my buddies' cars and drink high-test. Other times she just goes off on me for no reason. Like the other night, she caught me looking at a Maserati, and now she isn't speaking to me!

Every other person in Glendale has a G/Benz/Bmw so not that much actually.

It gets more looks than my dropped G37 did, probably because I honestly think it's the only one in town. Though getting the windows tinted and putting on some Forgestars certainly didn't help with the rubbernecking.
