Shockingly Negative 370z Review/Comments!

The only thing I dont like about the Z is the interior guages and steering wheel radio controls look and seem cheap and overdone ....also the fuel guage is silly....

The Evo, 5k more expensive than my Z, made by struggling Mitsu, did not impress me with its interior when I sat in it.

The EVO GSR lists for 33k and change...I just dont like all the fancy cheap guage clusters and bar graph fuel gauge. I prefer a simple layout and that what I have in my car. Nothing garish.

My car was 30k. I like the polished, attractive interior of the Z versus the spartan interior of the Evo.

We can both like different things. If we all liked the same look, we'd all drive the same car.

this review sucks. he is comparing a Z to an audi s5... what else has he driven? a corvette? this was such a deep review. He didn't understand the car's button, then compares everything to some superlative car, like an bmw or audi. Complete snob. Who jumps into a BMW and immediately operates the NAV like it's something a 6 year old could operate? When you want to critique something, at least have a coherent topic and some particular perspective the reader wants to relate to, or compare against. In the end he says the car is OK. What were his methods of comparison? and explain the pros and cons of each.

At least we know the Z has a very balanced chassis.

could you fit okay? I couldn't really fit in the Evo MR's seats at all when I went to look at them, incredibly uncomfy.

I'm 5' 10" as well, but I'm also 290lbs so I'm just too wide in the hips/quads and back to fit comfortably. I'm certain were I 50 lbs or more lighter, I'd love the seats, they look really nice too.

I'm about the same size, although I found the Evo roomy enough. I didn't really test drive it, though. Just sat in it for a bit.
