370Z Quality

Funny you just got out of a camaro SS, that was the other car i was looking at before i bought the Z. The backseat would have been nice, and it would have been really cool to say i drove a car with the same engine as the corvette, but i just fell in love with the Z.

2 things ultimately drove me to the z instead of the SS...1) i've always been more of an import kind of guy, i want to like American Cars and support our american dealerships, i really do, but i just gravitate towards imports more. And at this point in my life, i dont need a back seat

2) i bought my nismo 370 for almost 3k under MSRP. The chevy dealerships i looked at were selling the camaro SS for 3-5k OVER sticker. That was the tipping point in favor or the Z for me. The nismo Z ended up being cheaper than a camaro SS, and up until that point i thought the one thing keeping the SS in it for me was price.

The one night i've driven the car so far it feels very well put together. My old car (06 civic si) had a ton of rattles...somehow i dont think this will have quite as many. Closing the doors feels solid, cornering feels solid...everything feels very tight and i hope it stays that way.
