Best Red Light Questions

Munts · 07-27-2014, 11:27 PM

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

"Pardon me. Do you have any Grey Poupon?"

RBfastback · 07-28-2014, 01:20 AM

I typically get these 3:

1) does it go fast?

2) is that the new 350Z?

3) is that a porsche?

I totally would. The diff and RS3s make it a lot harder unless I'm doing a brake stand
