The 370z is nice, but IMHO, and many will agree with it as they have at many conventions, the Z32 is the cream of the crop. Reason why they are in high demand for TT models now and the prices for one are higher than they should be. Kinda like the Toyota Supra.
Yet when I talk to older Z owners, who have owned over the years and have gone through the many ranks (240-260-etc) all fall back onto the 240z and say the 300 is nice but really not a true Z. Many say it lacked what made a Z a Z, yes the 300 was fast and had a TT from factory, but it missed the mark on style, exterior & interior. They took some pieces out of the equation to make the 300 and it turned out to be a great car but lost much of its heritage to the Z.
