The New 350Z

fonzo179 · 05-13-2013, 08:03 AM

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."

My friend said that to me.

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.

This never happens to me but I'm not sure why

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.

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

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

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.
