When I first got it, the first question was, "How fast have you gone with it?"
The one I got the most from people at work (or even those that I don't know) say, "Jeez, it must be nice to get a car like this!" I reply, "I've been working for 39 years at the same place, my wife 28 years, we have one grown child, my wife and I have been saving for a car for a long time and we know how to manage our money!" To that they say, "Oh."

My guy friends usually say "You can afford this???" Or, "How do you fit???"
And the girls usually say is this a 350? And the swift reply is, "no, this is the 370Z" lol
Random people always ask the power

Or I'll get a compliment, which is nice, yesterday a woman gave me a thumbs up because I gunned it (within the speed limit of course) lol

I get that a lot too... And the fastest was 115-120 when I first picked up the car... (Not street racing or anything) I just had no idea, driving from Austin to Dallas at night and I wasn't used to the speedo being sooooo tiny, and as I was driving I was like damn this thing makes a lot of road noise... Looked down... Uh, OHHHHHH, THAT'S the problem, lol
And I slowed down

EDIT: not the fastest I've gone, lol, I was on CC with my 2001 Toyota Avalon at 123, lol

She said no way I'm from Germany that's a Porsche
I said its my car and so is the blue one, they are the same car
She says no way
I said yep I put the kit on it myself
She then rolled her eyes and walked away

It seriously ruined my night lol


How is someone going to argue with THE OWNER about what model it is? What did she expect? This? :

Lady: Thats a Porsche

You: No, its 370Z, i own it

Lady: Im from Germany, i can tell its a Porsche

You: Oh crap, you know what, your right, i never noticed, i can't believe its a Porsche this whole time i thought it was a Z! Thank you so much for brining this to my attention

I've had my 370 for 3 weeks and I've gotten:

Nice ride!
How many HP does it have?
How fast have you gone in it?
How much was it?
