I know there are 370 owners out there, the cars just suddenly didn't vaporize.

everyone mostly uses facebook groups now, which sucks for guys like me because I don't have or want a facebook account.

facebook 370z group is a joke, nothing but a bunch of teenagers posting how they bought a rear hatch louver to restrict an already limited view, or worse someone adding 22" rims on the car and asking whats the best next mod to gain some power.
I stay away from those pools.

the issue with FB group is that you can't chose what to view, you have to view the 10 trash/senseless post to see that 1 more or less relevant one.

which is good for mark zuckerberg since you end up spending more time on there, but bad for everyone else.

None of the clowns on FB know how to use the search button/Google, so every other post is how do I do this, or what is this, or im 16 and mommy and daddy gave me this...

Sorry, but I don't agree with the premise in the thread title. In fact, I still find it hard to keep up with the pace of this place.

As a 370z forum, I reckon it's alive and kicking.

1. Nissan ain't done shyt new to talk about.

2. As grumpy old guy stated. Questions have been answered.

3. This has become more of a social site so people pop in and out and comment, more than actually participate.

4. Most of the hardcore enthusiasts bought other cars.

5. All the posers bought mustangs and BMW's.

6. There are a lot of used car rear window Louvre people posting threads here now and none of the OG's are not wanting to read it.

7. Lastly, the only news moving people is Z35 news.

I do feel like it has slowed down quite a bit in the last year or so....

for example, in the exterior/interior subforum there are only three active threads today... aside from those three, the last post was 2 days ago. 3 years ago I would have been very surprised to see only 3 threads in that subforum to be active in a 24 hour period.

Perhaps it is because of people asking why there aren't move relevant threads instead of making relevant threads.

Just sayin'

WAIT TILL SPRING AND SUMMER! Then you will see all sorts of failures and add-ons and of course.......MORE PICTURES.

Right now, it's still snowing in the Northern hemisphere. LOL.

You get my point. It's seasonal. (maybe)

I agree on the activity But WE still have plenty of folks coming on board.

The fact that most of all the basic questions have been asked leads most newbs to simply search.

IF this place was really dying WE wouldn't have an average of 100-200 members and 500-700 guests in here most of the time.

I see that most here are regular low to no posting members as well as the OG crew who we also have had a decline, But thats normal for all car forums as people move on so all in all compared to others we're still all right.

Will see what arrives at the Tokyo auto show later this year and will see another uptick in activity as we include the NEW Z wether it'll be here as an inclusion model brand or on its own site? AK will decide the direction.

Im hoping for good NEWS finally! as the current Z34 has gotten long in the tooth
