How the heck do our cars looks like the 240s? From the side view or a 3/4 view looking at the side profile only...YES it does, but the front and rear are completely different.

I've gotten asked if its an Acura numerous times and got a ticket for a nissan 280z. People also call it a 240sx, jaguar, and a few other random things...especially because I'm badgeless.

Went with a friend to buy a 240 and we went in my car. The owner asked me about my car and what year it and if its 5 speed and then later he started a sentence with "hey is your solara"

I didn't correct him but it made me giggle.

I'm glad I haven't been confused with a Ford Taurus or something stupid yet. I guess it helps having a spoilerless SC. A lot of people seem to think I'm boosted or have an SC400 though.
