Just showed my wife this picture. She took a minute to pick out which one is which.

My pennies worth as Ive also owned both, and recently. Had a 2003 996.2 two years ago and earlier this year bought a 2010 370 roadster. Biggest shocks for me was how much cheaper the insurance was for the Porsche, The servicing costs was much cheaper for the Porsche £144.00 from Porsche and £207.00 from Nissan for the Z.
Parts too are a lot cheaper and the dealers at Porsche were so much more enthusiastic about the cars. They also had great days where you can go along and have an hour with a technician and a free breakfast too.
The Porsche was a lot older, granted. I love the 370 it's more "refined" and cheaper to buy and I loved those wide haunches in the mirror of my 911.

Porsches look nothing like Zs. Then again if I had a Porsche I would keep mine. :icon17:

At lunch this guy that was sitting in his car beside mine, saw me walk up to my car, rolled his window down, looked at the car hard, and said "Looks like a Porsche... What is it? Looks good!" I laughed and said it was a Nissan, wished him a good day and left. I was dying of laughter when I got in my car because I knew this thread existed, lol

So we have a poor man's 911...well it could be worse...lol

A little girl said to me "how come your car doesn't have the flower like my sister's?" Her sister has a bug with the flower thingy on the dash....

Nissan made a good choice there, I was looking at the Altima coupe, liked the look and 4 seats, but they only make it as a 4cyl, 2.5L!

My mom had a Buick Rivera in when I was in highschool, and kids on the bus thought it was a Rolls Royce because of the signature R badges on the front and back. lol

Yep, they did away with the 3.5 in the coupe for 13'. its only available in the sedan. IMO, its a good thing, that 3.5 coupe was so confused.

I saw one with no NISSAN back plate / hamburger, it was the Transformers Logo instead.

nah.. dude.... we DON'T have a poor-man's-911....

we have a Z...

just those 911 dudes have an overpriced Z, period.

911's? Come on a Z doesn't even come close to comparing to a 911, Cayman yes, 911 no way in hell.
