Thx all---It is really sad---I loved my 280ZX and I loved my 300ZX :-(

My Mini is the JCW model and the Vette has the Z51 suspension and the RX-7 is far from stock. They all make noise and are point and shoot.

I really wanted to love this car. I thank you all for weighing in with your honest f/b and help.

I am going to try and go drive a Nismo. If I like it, I will get all your help figuring out how to make it "noisy"

If not enough noise is your only concern, I am sure there are plenty of aftermarket CAI and CBE to make your ears happy. The stock Nismo sound slightly meaner but not by much. The ride is much stiffer tho and handles better.

Different strokes for different folks.

My base with sport still gives me wood every time I get into it.

Noisy. Try LTH, no cats, 12" resonators, and cbe.
