Default Best Red Light Questions

I was sitting in my '04 Nissan 350z once and had a guy pull up in a Honda. The light was taking unusually long and I noticed out of the corner of my eye he was staring at me. When I finally made eye contact he looked at me and said "Nice car, is that the Nissan with the V8?".

I face palmed pretty hard

Was wondering if you guys had any funny dumb questions/stories about things people have said/asked about your Z.

a redneck in a massive truck next to me said something similar about 3 weeks ago, him: "hey boy, what kind of v8 is that? (with redneck slang)"
me: "it's not a v8 it's a v6" then he just tilted his head out if curiosity and squinted his eyes lol

Back in '04 after purchasing my first Z, some old man asked me what kind of Chevy 350 I was driving. I just told him what it was and he looked confused.

I typically get these 3:

1) does it go fast?

3) is that a porsche?
