It may be because of where I live, but I by far get more older white guys admiring my Z. 70+ year old guys will approach me in parking lots and want to tell me about when they had one of the original 240's and such. It's kind of cool because I am not that many years away for being one of those guys!

I had my car at my work one day, pulled inside in one of the bays,a nd this old guy and his wife stroll in and he says to her "oh look honey, this is a real car, can I have one?" She answered with a stern "no" and the look on his face was priceless!

Kids randomly comment as well. But by and large, African American men stop me at gas stations, walk up while I'm stopped at traffic lights, or gesture for a window roll down all the time. Not sure how to explain it, but I certainly agree with them. I love this car too
Totally!

I went to a track day and had a 70-something white guy come up and start on about his 240Z. I couldn't get him to leave me alone. Then my friend in another 370Z pulled up and the guy sauntered over and started with the exact same story. I almost fell over laughing.
