Now I know that the 350z had an engine upgrade in 2007 and the 06 had oil consumption problems. I'm just wondering if the 370z had the same problems throughout the year or is there any cons about it? Right now, I'm debating between a roadster or a coupe, so any opinions on those are helpful too as well.

Thanks
I had an 07 350Z that I recently traded for an 09 370Z. Luckily, I don't have any of the issues that other members speak of and I also check my oil level weekly and my car doesn't burn any oil, but then again, I don't abuse my car. Every car, even if it's the same year/model/make/etc., will be different.

I'm glad I made the upgrade, however, there are a few elements of the 350Z that I do miss:

1. rear windshield wiper
2. rear quarter panel window is alot more functional, whereas on the 370Z, it's basically impossible to see out that window.
3. stock exhaust note on 350Z is more pronounced and a bit deeper.
4. the ability to open my truck from the key fob - can't do it on a 370Z.
