-G- Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Ha ha, this is awesome. I was approached by an Irish lad at my local petrol station just last week who seemed awestruck by my (black) car, wanted me to take a selfie of him with it (!) I cheerfully obliged but was a bit embarrassing at the same. I suppose the colour-scheme & wheels make the car look a lot fancier than it is!

KUGT4 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 fyi - just got a 'nice car mate' from random bloke at pedestrian crossing tonight.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranTurismoEra Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 black cars always look good, when clean especially in the summer, mines silver not everyones cup of tea, but it looks more machineyy if thats a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy.farrow7 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I have had the porsche compliment a few times before also must be common ground for owning a "350z", I wonder if it happens the other way round haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeW Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) If anyone hasn't had a car compliment yet and wants one, go to Mcdonalds.. Just took the drive thru on lunch whilst out and about, and had: 1) a group of lads in their late 20's stop in their tracks and all stare *you could hear one say 'nice' 2) in the dual queue, two girls in a car (a peugeot but we cant hold it against them) having a right look, they rolled the window down and the passengers shouts over 'what engine is that?', I say '3.5l V6' and smile, leaving eyebrows up and bottom jaw down! - I think it impregnated them. 3) on my return visit after I realised they had forgotten my sweet chilli chicken wrap, the member of staff said 'yeah but it probably didnt take long to get back in that did it?' love it!

PPod Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 ^^^^ haha nice man. The amount of respect a 350z gets on motorways also is brilliant. Was slowly driving into Glasgow last night the amount of people who slowed down and flashed lights or gave quick flash of hazard lights were crazy. And a suped up mini (hot lassie) gave us a wee pop and bang with a wave hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-G- Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Just after lunch today I showed a work colleague a few photos of the 380 while it was being IVA'd. First Comment was "ooooh, VERY NICE!" seconds later "Looks a bit like a Porsche, dunnit?" (he's from Essex) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran O'Quick Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 2 young girls smoking outside the art college shouted "NICE CAR" at me the other day when I was stopped at lights. Felt really chuffed. I might be 40+ but with a hat and a good car - still got it... Gave them a wave. Then I realised I was wearing Sparco driving gloves. Probably about as uncool as it gets. Lights couldn't go green quick enough... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
