okay.....no, there aren't readily available kits, but you can probably go to any nearby shop that does vinyl and they can cook something up for you.

Yes there are ones for the 370Z. I found mine on eBay and there are other styles too. Mine was specific to the 370Z while others may be more generic.

I've never seen stripes on a Ferarri, Lamborghini, Porsche...thankfully. Doubt it would improve their looks any more than it would on a 370Z. These are elegant vehicles. What is it about stripes that is so appealing...and worth buying a different vehicle for?

A decal shop should be able to cut/install stripes to your specifications.

I don't disagree with you, I was just pointing out that all the cars mentioned do come with stripes, and are actually rather common

Problem with doing the strip is when you go to take them off in a year or 2 the paint that was covered wont match to what was under the stripe due to slight sun fade. Seen it happen numerous times to cars that have stickers on the paint, go to remove them and the "shadow" of the sticker is still there and a wet sand and buff will not get rid of it.
