Anyway, I currently drive a Toyota Celica GTS, so going from a FWD 190hp car to a ~330hp RWD car is quite a swap. Just wondering if anyone here made a similar change and has any advice or stories, other than the normal 'don't drive like a moron'

Also people say quite often that the ride quality is so-so, and the you feel most bumps in the road, at the moment my car has absolutely terrible ride quality, the back end squeaks a lot and you cant hear the radio when you're going 80 due to road noise. The car is a 16 year old Toyota so I'm letting it off the hook, however is the 370z similar to this? Hard to judge what some people define as 'bumpy ride'.
How much do you like cars?
Will you be working on car?
Are you thinking it would be fun to have Sports Car?

You need to be insane about automobiles.Cars need to be your life.Willing to work a second job just for the Z.Wrench on the car late into the night.At your age if you are thinking it would be fun do not buy.

My friends and I have been crazy about cars from an early age.In 1970s when I was 16 owned 70 Chevelle with 396 and posse.I had to sacrifice a lot for that car.At 20 I wrapped car around a tree.Did I get something practical after?Hell no.My next car was 66 Corvette big block.I continue to be like this my whole life.
