The 350z is ugly inside out in my opinion. There is only a few that look OKAY. Never had a 350z as it was never appealing to me, only the nismo version was again OKAY. However, I was aware of that digital speed gauge the 350z had and it would have been cool to have that with the 370z.
I also agree with a previous post about 350z and a bad crowd. Since the 350z is way affordable, many older teens seem to be able to get them more. Typically, I can not stand the scene that comes along with most if not all 350z. I had my 370z since I was nine-teen, but I usually can't stand a lot of the young car crowd. They always have to do somethign stupid at meets; Rev for no reason, Speed off in a very annoying manner, etc. Most exhaust sound like crap.
The 370z on the other hand is beautiful, but sadly sooner than later, the young crowd will once again get access to this car as it becomes progresively cheaper. When that time comes, I might consider selling my Z. Right now I enjoy the somewhat exlcusiveness of the 370Z as in they are not too common in certain area, plus its freaken sexy! (although I am drooling over the more sleek design of the newer 911's).
I forgot where I was going with this, but 370z> over 350z all day every day.

I think you were saying you like older men, hence why you participate on this forum?

I'd rock an '07/'08. Dat hood bulge! I also think the rear end looks sexy without a spoiler, which I don't think is a good look on the 370. That's about it though. The 350s interior, while extremely similar to the 370, looks cheap.

I have seen a tastefully modded 350 around my area. The car has aftermarket tail lights where the brake light is a round cluster of LEDs. It looks pretty sweet compared to the OE tails.

I just don't like a lot of the immature kids that have 350z's. This can be both male or female owners.

It's hard to say that there can be teenage girls in 350zs that act like douchebags, I can't really see it happen lol

It is mainly the price point of cars, the cheaper they get the more accessible they will become to younger crowds and people that in general ruin cars through horrible modification and driving. Nothing we can do about it, but that happens across pretty much every affordable sportscar, it's not just the Z. Mustangs have douchbag owneres as soon as they drive off the lot. lol jk (kinda)

The exterior styling of the 350Z just looks too tame, IMO. The 370Z's exterior looks more sporty/aggressive.

After a month with my new-to-me 2012 370z I can say definitively it is a way better car overall then my 07 350z.

Back to title of this thread what I liked better on my 350:

- trunk-open button on key fob
- the temperature setting dials were bigger so easier to manipulate while keeping eyes on the road
- same with steering wheel controls for stereo volume easier to use
- rear visibility SLIGHTLY better
- gas gauge needle

And lastly, I actually am not the biggest fan of push-button start, so I miss turn-key...partially so the radio doesn't turn off with the car!

You can press the button twice in succession (without your foot on the clutch) and it should keep the radio on. If it's an AT, you can press it while you're still in gear and it should turn off the engine and leave the radio on.

This was bugging me too. First time I have a car with the Push Start so I wasn't used to this feature. By the way, I think I do prefer the turn key in car.
