Oh yeah, the 370z Nismo grabs my attention more than just about any other car. A close second would be the 458 italia

There are mixed bags about the panamera. I am on the side of those who see it as a pretty sexy car, especially in white with some contrast AND the spoiler

The Panamera in white & black are a big hit & the most common. A Panamera that is white with black rims is pretty bad a** looking.

It's still just a glorified station wagon.

I don't have a NISMO but wow the first time I got onto the freeway like 15min after leaving the dealer a murdered out M3 just started teasing me! So we both hauled a** for a few miles and I gave him a thumb's up! Felt like a boss exiting the freeway with my bro following me in my cooper S nowhere in sight.

And just a few weeks ago my mother and I were coming back from a day trip to Santa Barbara and this chick in a C class sedan (fairly cute) kept cutting through traffic and passing me we were playing cat and mouse for like half the way back home...I tell my mom look this chick wont give up she like what is she doing shes just driving u guys over react too much! (she also drives a white c class) lol.

But insane POS milf fly-by's is what really gets me going...

I'm surprised how much attention I do get specially here in LA...I see lots of kids in g37's getting jelly that there daddy didn't get em a Z.

^ Cali drivers FTL... lol. I used to live in Cali so I know what the freeways are like down there... Pure anarchy.

While I was washing my Z today, had a guy pull over and ask if he could take a picture of it and kept on about how beautiful it was. He was actually considering buying a Nismo 370z. I told him go for it.

I'm not sure about the laws in CA, but in Texas they can't do a thing to you unless you chirp the tires. At which point its considered "exhibition of acceleration" and only then if it is inchoate of drag racing on a public road. I intend to accelerate my Nismo as hard as I safely can every chance I get. I have little doubt this will draw the attention of the local popo. Being a former law officer though, I usually know my way around the traffic law.

I don't think I chirped the tires but under WOT my car is plenty loud with the test pipes, berk exhaust, and supercharger combo. He could've at least ticketed me for the exhaust. I think he was too busy cracking down on all the illegal fireworks going off in the area.

Just got my 2012 Nismo and have definitely gotten both positive and negative attention thus far here in LA. There seems to be a lot of people rubber necking to check out the car, but also getting mean mugs from younger guys in what I believe to be inferior cars to the Nismo. Regardless, the general sentiment is positive and I must agree. The car is just so damn sexy!
