The New 350Z
 
Just wondering if anyone else gets people coming up to them asking "Hey, is that the new 350Z?" lmfao most of the time I just entertain it...."Yeah, its a 2010" while trying my best not to laugh.

It's remarkable that our cars have been out since '09 but this question still comes up.

"That a 380Z?"
"Sure, why not."

DarkJak 05-13-2013 10:18 AM

Most of the time, they don't give me a chance to say anything.

Just "Nice 350Z!"
Or "I like your 350Z!"
Or most troubling: "Alright so let's get your 350Z on our lift for some work."

Exactly. Everyone calls it the 350Z.

I actually hear '360z' fairly often. I guess people think an addition of 0.1 liters is the logical next step

edub370 05-13-2013 02:01 PM

most people actually have no clue what the numbers on the back of any car mean

most folks think 350Z is the name of the car, and doesn associate the 35 to the 3.5L.

i will fall over if anyone at work asked me how i liked my VQ37VHR. :icon17:

I was thinking the same thing.
That would be considered heresy in Alabama.

1cleans13 05-13-2013 02:13 PM

Nismo89 05-13-2013 02:37 PM

Yep, they need around 1000 signatures on a form to release plates for out of state universities. Once they get those the plate is official. NC has plates for around 50 colleges or so.

Dsevast 05-13-2013 04:16 PM

Happens all the time. Not even worth correcting anymore.

CSGLEON 05-13-2013 06:37 PM

My friend said that to me.

grant 05-13-2013 08:10 PM

I took the 370Z off the back, nobody read it anyway. Although I have had several people say "Nice Z" maybe because the numbers were gone, they weren't sure what it was other than a Z.

PapoZalsa 05-13-2013 08:31 PM

I got surprised today by my new Division Chief, he comes up to my cubicle and asked me looking at my 370 Nismo poster "Do you just like the 370 or do you have one?" :eek2:

I simply refer to my car as "my/the Z" quite a lot...lol.

Proper response: "I have one, I don't like the look of them. I have the poster to remind me of how ugly I think my investment is....."

I usually get "Is that a Nissan?"... What gave it away the Nissan emblems?

I get "nice 300" a lot from some of the guys at work. I have also gotten the 350z statements as well.

most people around where im at think 350 and 370 mean the HP amount

i get asked all the time "does that really have 370hp?", i usually say no and inform them what the numbers really mean but sometimes when i feel like messing with someone ill tell them yes it does XD

I have also gotten porsche comments

kittens 06-27-2013 10:37 PM

I wish I took a picture.. I ordered a part for the bottom of my car and got it installed at the Nissan body shop and they wrote 350z on my folder:inoutroflpuke:

2xtreme1 06-27-2013 10:49 PM

I always correct them right away telling them its a 370z. Then they are like Ooo Dang what year is it..lol.

VQ370ZTT 06-28-2013 12:38 AM

Nice Porsche bro!

fonzo179 06-28-2013 08:46 AM

My thing is I would NEVER approach someone to talk about their nice car unless I know what the car is about.

Take for example Lamborghini. I have ZERO knowledge about those things. If my co-worker pulled up in one, I would simply say "nice lambo", as opposed to "nice LP-550"....just for him to turn around and say "Dafuq??? :confused: They stopped making the LP-550 two years ago. This is the LP-570-4 bro....then smile obnoxiously, turn around and flame me on the Lambo forum. I'm enough of a n00b in life as it is. I don't need any more n00bness. :rofl2:
