What's the worst insult you've gotten about your Z?

Isamu · 12-23-2012, 02:28 AM

biggest insult I have heard recently...

someone asked some dude with an eclipse... if his car was a z....

Did not really take it as an insult but a friend on mine said
" oh nice car is it the new Altima " when he first saw it LOl

My Z gets mostly love. I don't get a lot of people insulting her, and when they do, I usually tune them out anyway.

Two friends of mine (both Mustang drivers) insist on telling me all the time that my Z sounds like a weed whacker... And then they try to pass me and i cut their grass ;-)

But seriously, 99.99999% of the time its jealousy. I never get **** talked by the guys that have nicer cars than me... Just saying

I'll tell you a good one, but it happened in a GTR.

I was going to a Playoff game for the cards, had to grab some cash so I stopped by my local BOA and pulled up next to the ATM. I was not the drive through ATM , but one on the side of the building. So I jumped out real quick and left the door open on the GTR. A 1998-2001 Miata Driver pulls up behind the car. Starts looking around it, and asks if it's a Mustang. :faceplate: , I politely said no it's a Nissan. So he asks if he can look inside, I said sure, have at it... while I'm still trying to get my cash out of the ATM, I hear, it's a shame you bought an automatic. I just shook my head and tried to explain the dual clutch system, but I think I blew his miata mind. O_o

God what an idiot. What he should have been is shocked that one Gtr is the value of like 5 brand new fagiata's.

New employee here at work, is a "car guy", but hes into old American muscle, after a few weeks he caught a whiff that i had a 'nice car' and jumped out of his seat asking "whacha got i wanna see", he sees the Nismo says "oh is that a 280" and seemed disappointed. Then he walks away and is like "we call those rice burners". Kindof pissed me off

You shouldn't be upset, it is obvious that guy wasn't a car guy. He is only a "muscle car guy", which is a narrow perspective IMHO.

Everyone has their favorites, but a car guy is someone who appreciates all cars and what they can do. Too many interesting cars out there to keep it to one type.

axmea? · 02-05-2013, 08:31 PM

I was told your car's too low, it's not practical. I've seen 'em lower is all I'd say. Other than that, I've had nothing but praise from all ages.

Just as I thought a classic example of pure "Muscle with with no Brain"

My wife sent me a care package and included a car audio magazine with a 350z on the cover. I asked her why she sent me a car audio magazine when you know im not really an audio guy. She said she just looked at the cover and saw my car...

So I asked her how her Tiburon is holding up (she drives a genesis Coupe)

Most people at the place I work really like my car, but everyone says it's tiny (the car).

it's larger than my 240, my morgan, and my motorcycle.

Should have told him no, it burns 93 octane and goes like a bat outta hell. And I don't even need to all lead additive!
