Compliments at work on your 370Z
 
Today I was minding my own business at my work desk and 2 coworkers that I don't know who they are stopped me to complement me on my red 370Z. I was not in the parking lot but, they recognized my plates Ian B and came looking for me just to tell me how awesome my car is. It's moments like this that make me like my 370Z even more.

Another coworker asked me if I made a lot of money since I owned a 370Z and she needed to come work in my department. I told her they are great bang for your buck cars and not out of her IT manager salary reach. lol!!!

That sure made my day.

My folks usually ask me for a raise every time I drive it to work. ;)

About is close as I get to a compliment is, "Is that yours?!?!" ;)

yep.... that happens a lot. At work, in the neighborhood, at the store, at softball games, at car shows, etc...... Yes, it's one of the features I enjoy about owning the Z....

The compliments the car has gotten from total strangers has really surprised me. It's a good looking car and relatively rare, though. Having the sport package probably helps.

I get them all the time at work, running errands, getting groceries, random strangers at stop lights and gas stations... It's pretty rare around my area and having it in bright blue makes it stand out that much more. :rofl2:

I work at my uncle's gas station and I get people all the time telling me they need to start working there so they can have a car like mine. :icon17:

When someone says "nice car" I just smile and say "thanks! I bought it myself".

being a minority, i am always asked, in this order, Nice Car! Is it yours? What do you do? Did mom and dad buy it from you? FML. I paid it off myself.

Really? I haven't had anyone say that to me and I'm a minority as well.
