One reason I love my car as that I think it looks cool. Can't say that about many 13 year old cars.

 

I was reminded of this on the way home tonight. I had to stop at a pedestrian crossing and a bunch of people wandered across in front of me. All except one schoolboy. He must have been about 10 or 11, and as soon as he saw the Zed he stopped in his tracks and stood there open-mouthed for about 5 seconds. He then ran around to the back of my car (obviously to see what gorgeous piece of exotica to tell his mates about).

 

As the lights went green I felt it only right 'n proper to treat him to a blast of Twin Turbo'd V6 through a stainless Mongoose system. (couldn't quite see his face by then, but I was grinning from ear to ear).

 

ZEDS ARE SOOOOOOOOO COOL :cool:

I've had public recognition for my Zed.

 

Took my zed down Southend, just once, and people actually got their cameras out for it (which surprised me) and pissed off the misses cos the car got totty attention. (Note to self, leave wife at home when going down to Southend in Zed).

 

Was up North to see family and driving it around Hertlepool got some good responses, with people giving the thumbs up. Yes that's thumbs not fingers.

 

I think with films such as Fast & Furious, the zed is forgotten, but when people see a Zed, they like the shape and the V6 sound.

Yeah, my business partner has slagged my zed some as being old and japanese, but I was following his Merc CL500 AMG earlier today and we passed a crowd of young professionals and they gawped at the zed and ignored the merc. He was so pissed of when we got to the pub!

 

cool!:cool:

:D driving throught the shopping streets in bangor north wales i could see a man running after me!!

 

i stopped and he came to my window to ask what car it was he really loved the zed,

 

have to say my head swelled to double its size:dance: :dance:

yeah, always get comments. kid the other day just stood pointing & said "whoooooooa, nice car mister!"

 

other comments that deserve a :rolleyes:

 

was driving slowly down the seafront in traffic one evening, T tops off when a group of guys were walking past & one said "fekking hell, great car", then run round the front & saw the badge & said "oh no, its a Nissan" :rolleyes: :xxx:

 

other time was when I was parking up in a seafront car park & a kid said to his dad "thats a nice car dad, what is it?" dad said "oh, its a Nissan Skyline son!" :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

LOL it's an experience driving a Z.

 

I once had 2 lads literally jump in front of my Z at traffic lights and stand gawping with thumbs up. One shouted "F*****g awesome car mate!" LOL

 

Little kid at Halfords: "Can you do me a wheelspin mister!" :D

 

Bloke comes over to me at Ikea: "My son wants to know if thats the car out of Gran Turismo on his Playstation" LMAO Class!

Certainly is, as I discovered the hard way by bringing the missus along for a cruise/meet, girls just don't seemed to be bothered if you have yer missus with you.

Now I am not allowed to go to Southend on my own :(
