The Bose head units on 350Z's (in the UK at least) are/were actually made by Clarion in France and have many reliability issues, especially with the CD player in cold weather and the amp packing up. If you contact Bose they say it's nothing to do with them - despite the unit having BOSE stamped on the front of it.
In terms of sound quality I'd describe the 350Z Bose as 'satisfactory'. The stock speakers are actually crap - same as you'd get in any Nissan. If they're the same quality in the 370Z they'd be one of the first things to remove and upgrade.
All in all, I think that Bose try to make themselves out to be something they're not, but they are a tiny bit better than your average car sound system. They are too expensive for what they are.
