Ferraris and Lamborghinis look beautiful and exotic but they don't look like race cars to me.

since i drive the posted speed limits, the fact that it might be slower than a base 370z doesn't bother me
Same here. There were ten 370's on the lot. The two Nismos just looked Bad Arse, comparatively. They all drove relatively the same, but I could feel a bit more kick in the Nismo. Between the spoiler and the rims, I couldn't say no.

Some fellas last night commented that at certain angles, the Nismo looks like a Porsche. And the stares I get from peeps. On the Highways, the only time I get passed is when i'm going below the speed limit... Otherwise, I feel like the rabbit in a dog race with everyone following me.

700 more break-in miles and I can turn the juice loose!
