I'm so glad I have a US version. Just doesn't seem to fit the aggressive style/design of the 370Z. IMO

Maybe if I was a female driver and my car was painted pink it would be OK!

Sorry if I offended anyone here, as I said, it's just my opinion

Forged Performance Time Attack 370Z: Help us design our graphics scheme! thread

Yes, I WAS aware of the "heritage" of the name (and actually my dad turned down a date with Audrey Hepburn, the star of My Fair Lady", said her t*ts weren't large enough, so she almost could have been my mother). But, it still seems TO ME like the name does not fit any type of high powered sports car.

I just wish one could state their opinions, whether positive or negative, without this kind of flaming.

BTW the FerrariChat site was FULL of this kind of intolerance for ANY type of criticism also. Even more so. But, I still would like be able to post my opinions, without this kind of negative feedback. No car is perfect.

Read the threads at the FChat site where I said I was trading in my Ferrari for a 370Z, and you'll see what I mean. Man did I get hammered, but IMO I'll take my Z over the Ferrari any day. I LOVE my Z!!!! Don't tell a Fcar owner that though. I've taken enough abuse. LOL

I could drive in a pink car all day, I'm manly enough.

I'd be able to pull off a pink car. I'd badge it 'Softlady Z' I'd also be able to wear a pretty dress and deliver dainty cupcakes in it and not give a damn what mister sports bar thinks.

Dodge's naming convention for cars is particularly hilarious. It's like they've asked zitty 12 year olds to name their cars for them. Which kinda of says where the core audience is at, maturity wise.

:tiphat:

Got any pics of that? I'd love to see you drive to a NASCAR race like that to see what response you get! LOL

No, I'm not a NASCAR fan, Formula 1 is my passion
