I've found there appears to be blind areas on both sides due to the A pillars but with use the side mirrors do cover those areas. With approaching vehicles I adjust the side mirrors "out" until I can see the front of them as they clear the cockpit rearview mirror. The vehicles should just come into view in the side mirrors just as they begin to leave the rearview. I still find a quick glance over either shoulder is advisable for peace of mind. I do agree the driver's side mirror is a little large and does block your view, somewhat, when making left turns. Not sure of a fix for that. The rear visibility is limited in the 370Z. It reminds me of the Pontiac Trans Am Formula.
