If you want a driver's car, there are much better options than a 370Z.

The thing than many folks seem not to grasp is that test track #'s don't even begin to scratch the surface when it comes to evaluating how good to drive a sports car is.

You don't even need to spend over 30K to get a better driver's car than the Z.

1.) MX-5 Miata NC2 (2009 and up) is Worlds better to drive than a 370z.
2.) BRZ / FR-S also Worlds better to drive than a 370z.

You don't have to take my word for it just read the reviews and take a test drive yourself. Don't waste your money on a car that is simply faster out of ignorance.

Many people do this and regret it. If they don't opening regret it they get highly defensive about the subject trying to defend their large purchase. Nobody likes to admit they blew a bunch a money a on crappy car.

You'd have to spend up to ~ 55K on a new Porsche Boxster / Cayman to get a car nearly as fun / rewarding to drive as the new MX-5, BRZ / FR-S.

Oh and BTW, the 370z is no Porsche Cayman, not even close. The 09' Cayman S for one blows the doors off the 370z and more importantly there's absolutely no comparison as to which is more fun / rewarding to drive. But you don't have to get a Cayman S as the base 265hp Cayman is just as well Worlds better to drive than a 370z.

Anyways, I have no doubt you'd love the cars I suggested unless perhaps you were born with an inadequate genitalia and feel you need to prove something. Get what makes "you" happy not what you think will somehow impress others of low intellect.
