Anyone notice more coupes in their cities?

Naturally after I bought my AC last May I looked for them, but in the last 3 months i've noticed an increase in the amount I see, daily instead of every week or 2.

I kinda liked it when my car was rather unique on the road, but im glad people are realizing what a great car it is.

i agree. my coupe was the only one that i have ever seen in my town.but over the last month or so, i've seen a lot more around, along with the infiniti's. but 99.9% of the coupes i've seen, are all 2.5's and 2008 models and mine is a 2009 3.5so i guess that's a plus for me.

They might be getting common in Cali, but not here! Since buying mine last November, I have seen a total of five ACs, and only one within 100 km (60 m) of where I live. In my nearby town, my car is still recognized as a one-off! It's really quite funny.

Whenever I see one down here, it's usually an unmodded 2.5 female driver. But for some reason when I'm up in the bay area and see one, it's always an umodded 3.5 male driver.

I've been noticing a local increase as well. I see about one or two every other day now.I always see another black coupe at buffalo wild wings when I go on Thursday. I need to get some of those NICO cards.

Yeah I saw three yesterday! It was crazy! One precision gray, then I saw a dark slate one all in the same drive. Later when I was out to dinner with my mom and cousin, there was a black one in the parking lot when we left. The black was 3.5, the other two were 2.5.

After I put my money down and started my 4 week wait (less than a week NOW!!!!) I started looking for ACs during my commute. I travel 60 miles a day right through Seattle and I have literally seen 4 coupes! Black one, blue one, silver one, and a white one-in that order. I also saw a red one, that doesn't count because that was when I went to the dealer so I could check one out up close. I think it's great. The dealer told me it was a "low production" vehicle- hope they keep it that way!

I live in Dallas and ironically I saw one in my apt complex the other day. Had some aftermarket wheels on and it was white with the top painted black I believe. It was a 2.5 though. I will say I've rarely seen 3.5s, probably seen 3 since I bought my car in August of last year compared to probably around 8-10 2.5s I've seen.

I rarely see any. I work at a gas station and since I got my car(End of Nov 2007) I have probably seen around 4 or 5 getting gas.

I've had my AC for a year now and have not seen another one in my area in all that time. I live in a rural area 45 miles west of Boston. Last week I drove into Boston for the first time since buying the Coupe and I saw 4 of them in the first hour I was there! Glad I live in the boonies where it's easier to be unique.
