Why waste your time with them? Just walk away when they start spouting stupid crap. They'll look more like an idiot.

Lets see:

-Zs are front wheel drive
-Zs are automatic only
-'77 Zs are actually Nissans...

Wow....its hard to believe someone this stupid could actually exist and function in life. Amazing...

Well, the 77Z is actually a Nissan rebadged under the Datsun name for the US market. Regardless though it is a Datsun.
Front wheel drive...Ummm yeah no comment...
All Zs are automatic...Man, gues I should quit pushing that clutch in and moving the shifter around...What retarded thing to say.

I don't think they officially became Nissan until when the Z31s came out in '84? I do remember my '81 280ZX did have badges on it that said 'Datsun by Nissan' though.

I think the 84' 300ZX was the last car to get a Datsun badge. Every year after that only had the Nissan badge. That's generally how I can figure out if it's an 84 or 85 300ZX.

i'd love to show up in my z32 and challenge him in my FWD 4cyl auto 300zx, then i would proceed to light the tires up, cover the car in smoke, then race him for pinks, take his little civic and crush it, get it on video and hack his myspace and put the video as his background...
