Hey Steve - Where in CT are you? I live in Southington and just bought a blue 370...it's getting a clear bra installed as I type this.

I've actually only seen ONE other 370 in CT so far... a white one on I691E a few weeks ago.

You must be drivin in the wrong part of LA .

There are a bunch of us out here and I've seen a bunch out here in the San Fernando Valley that aren't on this forum.

No, I'm pretty sure I'm in the right part of LA. There's just way too much money round these parts.

The only 370s I've seen have been while over at work in the valley, weirdly enough. Maybe if I do buy one, I'll be the only one in my neighborhood?

I have seen one for the last 6 months on the fwy. I have seen more Aston Martin Vantages than the Z.

Weird.

2 down here, so far. But, then again, they're so much more expensive at Puerto Rico-- $50,000 for a Base model. That's why I bought a used 350; very reliable '04.5 Coupe for which I paid $20,500 with just 13k on her. The original owner paid $43,000 in '04. Greetings.

Hey, have you had any of the oil burning problems with that model?


On Topic, I've only seen maybe a small handful of 370s actually on the road.

I rarely see them in Philadelphia (area)

An older lady (40's I'd say) in my town owns the carbon gray sport, I see her a lot and I saw an older guy who was prob at least 65 yrs old driving one, I forget what color. I saw one in Blue Bell, PA which was white/sport combo

I've had mine since September but have been looking for them since they first became available, and I've only seen 2 others in this area, and 2 others at the Jersey shore.

We should exchange notes on good backroads, speed traps, etc.

I see about one a week here in Miami. Which is surprising. I see about 5000 350z every day.

Only seen 4 here in Vegas since they launched, and one of them was a tourist from Ca. As far as I know I'm only one of 4 here in the Vegas area. Mine is yellow touring sport, there is another one exactly like mine but automatic, a Red sport, and a PG non-sport. Talking with some of the guys at the dealer, they have sold more but stated that most people either save them as weekend toys or are from out of state sourcing one here. As rare as the car is here it doesn't draw too much attention. Then again we reguarly have exotics running down the road daily so a Z isn't going to stand out too much.

hey, I'm in Wellington.
Do you have an oil cooler on the 370Z or is that the Mustang?
What oil temps are you seeing during the summer?
Thanks
