Nissan 370Z marks out of 10 please

10 duh but my other car was a Ford Pinto - just kidding. You are going to get a biased opinion on a 370Z board if you are digging for info on what to buy but if its just out of idol curiosity the yea 10! People will also take a point off for stupid stuff like no oil cooler when they never drive the car on the track, etc....

9.3

I say that because when I was in school a 93 was the lowest A you could get.

I give the car a low A. It could be higher without that ridiculous high pitched noise issue that, if you have it, can drive you insane and apparently has baffled Nissan.

I give my 91 300ZXTT a 9.8. yeah, its got a couple of drawbacks but its a great car. the 370Z could be up around 9.7-9.8 if they get that noise issue fixed.

I would rank both of these Zs higher than the other 3 Nissan Z cars I have owned.

8/10

All the numbers and specs are right. People say it's great. It's a GOOD car, dammit, yet I still can't form any emotional attachment to it. I'm not able to love it yet. We still haven't bonded. It feels like 'just another car' to me, albeit quite a nice, comfortable one.

I mean, I haven't had it long. I'll give it another 2 points if I ever feel at one with it.

Same here. After 6 months of ownership, i still not "emotionally involved" with my Z. I think the road noise is the most annoying aspect of the car.
The mods do help, but i hasn't grow on me yet. Awaiting a good tune and a new suspension...
