Seems like more fanboyism rather than Z enthusiasts with unbiased opinions

That's my350z.com for you. Just a bunch of misfits that like to hear themselves speak as they type. I call them keyboard warriors.

I have noticed that, there are actually some people there that post unbiased answers and that even show general enthusiasm for Z cars, but man, it just seems so jam packed with people that think their car is the best thing going, I love my 370, but I always give respect where its due.

Most car forums are like this. Seriously. While you get some blinders here, the community is pretty level-headed (for a car forum :V). If you really want to rage, go on over to Camaro5 and search for anything that is not (North :V :V :V :V) American made. There really isn't enough facepalm in the entire world.

This forum is pretty good for general information, but it has been running slow lately.

LOL I states this in the San Diego Meet thread I made but no one believed me. But seriously... the 35HR's have recorded faster 1/4 miles times than the 37VHR's have stock. And the 350z's are cheap now so you are going to see more high school kids driving them. Today while leaving Fedex, this C6 vette coupe (maybe a 2005) parked next to me and this kid got out of it. He looked my age and I asked him how much he paid for it. He said $22,000!!! WTF. and he modded the hell out of it already. Think he respects any other car on the road? Nope. First thing he said was "wow you paid THAT much for a Z? My car could beat your car launching in 2nd" AND you know what... hes right.

My experience with 350 owners has been pretty mixed. They are either very cool (Z enthusiasts) or total douchebags (total douchebags).

I cancelled my account at that 350 site, it's not "my 350" site anymore LOL
I too got fed up with all the trashing of our 370, as well as the weenie bois there trashing anyone mature and responsible who tried to post honest, unbiased information. The truth is, many have a car that by itself, depending on the year, may have a book value of $10 to $15 thousand. They have a ridiculous dollar amount of add ons and could nowhere come close to recouping their money if they traded for a 370. So after our cars came out all they did was trash, trash, trash. I decided to not get pissed anymore at the comments so I deleted my account......... bunch of immature weenies if you ask me.

That is what's sad, many of us are true Z enthusiasts, and have owned Z cars going back many iterations, including the 350. We love all Zs, they only love the 350, and fein respect for the original 240.
