The most standout comment I got was from an older guy park who besides me in a brand new M3 and commented on how he liked the Z. Also how people always seem to park besides you in junkers, even when your in the last spots at Home Depot. Luckily we weren't worried about door dings for that day.

A few times people asked me at stop lights what it was etc... and say how nice the car is. surprising how many people don't think or beleive its a "Nissan"... must be drunk?

yeah, definitely gotten comments from wives saying their husbands want one....i had one guy say he wanted to make love to the rims....random people (men and women of all ages) have come by and complimented the Z. almost made the gas station attendant cry at costco cuz he was telling me that he used to race 240's in scca and my z brought back some great memories haha.
one of my clients asked me if it was a porsche. i had to politely correct her, lol. i found it funny at first, but then i've had 2 or 3 others ask the same thing....

On the other side of the coin, the most comments that I get are from 13 year old girls.

I used to get tons of comments on my 350, although I think part of it was the color. I had a Daytona Blue 350 and now have a Brilliant Silver 370. Not quite as "in your face" I guess.
for some reason the bright colors attract more, while monotone silver and black look more badass. I'm willing to bet a red Z would get approached more than a silver one.

You can tell the 370z attracts a lot of attention no matter what color. Whenever I am driving I always see people turning the heads. Most people ask me if its a Porsche..i even had a dumb blond chick last week ask me if it was a Lambo.......and of course my answer was Yes, it is! Lets just say the rest of night turned out to be a good one!

Oh, so now the non red colors are the ugly step children, eh?!? Don't look at that white Z over there. Yuck! And it doesn't even have the sport package! Someone should just put that disgusting excuse for a car into a crusher!

Mine must be broken or something.. LOL. When I'm driving it, everyone seems to look the other way, as if to avoid acknowledging the car. Oh well, I guess I don't need the attention.

Two blonde girls driving a rx-8 thought my Nismo was a ferrari. I played along with it. Idk what gave it away as a ferrari, the nissan emblem or the 370z emblem. Jeez.
