enjoying the 370 while it's still a rare sight

Give it time, guys. Pretty soon the 370s are going to be just as common as the 350s and you won't be able to go a day without seeing one.

The only thing going for our "rarity" right now is a first model year and sluggish economy.

I've only seen 1 on the road here in San Diego. I know there are a few more on this forum but I haven't seen them. It is nice driving a rare car at the moment.

Talking

Here in dfw, over the past month, I seen around 24-25 370z's monterrey blue and black followed by silver grey then yellow have been the popular colors. For some reason I never seen the yellow w/ sport pkg. White.and red are the rarest. I haven't seen either on the road.
One thing I noticed. Most dealerships have used ones on the lots. Seems like alota guys bit off more than they can chew buyin the Z? I can't imagine not likin it? Lol.

You're probably right, especially in this economy. Impulse buy followed by a feeling of job-insecurity might lead to correcting a personal finance error and getting rid of the car.

How many of the "24-25" Zs you saw in the past month were the same Z?
