my Z reviewed
 
so i gave an online reviewer looking to further hone his craft my z for the day. told him to be as honest about this platform as he wanted. i think he really hit the nail on the head about most things (both pos. & neg.) with this car. i really love his writing style tho (clearly jalopnik does too, since he's made the front page twice with his reviews).

sorry, ur car is nice but the review in 2015 is :yawn:

edub370 11-13-2015 11:42 AM

noted. not a new car review, just a 3rd party review.

Reading the review now. I am curious as to the height of the reviewer. I am 6'0, will I have issues with being cramped by height alone?

hmm im not thinking he's much over 5'10". i think he's more referring to the relative "snugness" of the cabins overall feel. as opposed to say a mustang

The review was ok, I guess. The writing though....*gritting my teeth as I type*.

Your friend wouldn't happen to run the "Sleep with me podcast" does he?

Totally agree with you Firebase99.

The reviewer needs to keep in perspective the age of the car he's reviewing. What's not so relevant today, was pretty awesome when it came out. He's making a lot of comparisons to cars completely out of the 370z's class.

And in complete honesty here. I was in the market for a corvette. I owned one! I switched to the Z. That may not make sense with today's vette, but it made perfect sense to me when I bought the Z

Well...how 'bout those Cowboys, huh?

The writing was...difficult. IMHO, was trying too hard to "make it cool". I felt awkward reading it, as if it were penned by a 9th grader. No offense. Im sorry.

I think the video was the same, down to the fake voice

edub370 11-13-2015 03:02 PM

no need to apologize to me. different strokes for sure. video was a lil tough, but as its a first try at that i'll give him a free pass. i actually really enjoy the writing style, but then again that comes down to preference

Thanks for sharing. Was looking for him to comment about the car being modded and how it felt as a driver. There is no direct feedback about how it handled it how it responded again looking for more. Nice looking car and thanks for representing.

I too found the testing opinion coming from a very young person who is used to subcompact sports cars and to him the 370Z was a behemoth. Despite the slightly negative criticism, 370Z owners have one big advantage over other competitor vehicles, in that the low production numbers and lack of huge sales volume means we own more of a niche sport car that I don’t see going down the road on a daily basis. My only two execution quips are the gearbox/clutch and the lack of low end torque. Facebook offered a memory throw back photo of my 2009 Z last week that was 4 year old and my comment stated that I just hit 30K miles and it has been a good daily driver, and I have only seen one other blue 370z in the area 4years ago and it was a standard coupe. The same is true today I have yet to another blue 370Z.

I still find it hilarious that some people in the comment section either have no clue about the 370 or are clearly just there to hate on it lol
