I gained an entirely new friend circle from having the Z. People who'd want to hang out every time I'm back home, even though we have nothing else in common other than driving enthusiasts' cars.

There is good in it and bad in it as well...the good when people compliment you that you have a nice car or thinks it looks cool...the bad is people who question you about it (you don't ever talk to). How are you able to afford it? Did your parents buy it for you? That irritates me the most.

Yes !! I hate when people ask that. Especially people I don't really talk to like that.

I got a good story for you guys (on topic).

One night me and my friends all decided to go to a club in downtown Houston. My friend's family is filthy rich, he drives a Murcielago and was single at the time. He took it out that night. When we were in the club he was kinda lonely cause we were all couples and so my gf tried to talk to these single girls and introduce them to him maybe grab a drink or something, dance a little. The girls all straight denied him and walked away. At 2 A.M. the club was closing and his Lambo was parked right in the front. The group of girls noticed the car and saw that he was the owner of it and what do you know, they all came up and tried to start a conversation with him...one girl came up and said hey thats a sexy car what was your name again? He said sorry you had your chance to find that out earlier. Got in his car and zoomed off. Those girls were drooling it was so funny.

I get more strangers asking me about the car, but that's it. Other than that, my friends and family treat me like the same douche I've always been.

yes....

I've had neighbors so jealous of some of my cars they insulted me and quit talking to me. It's pretty rediculous. It's America...land of opportunity. Can't we be happy for people?

No, no one treated me differently.

I wish they would, it would mean I could hang out more.

Though, my buddy got a GTR and now I'm hanging out with him more. I guess it's because of the car? I don't think so entirely, after we hanged (yes, proper English here) out for the first time in umpteen years I realized that I had been missing out on one of the funniest people I knew. I guess everyone goes their separate ways sometimes, but Nissan's & cars brought us back together (no homo).
