One thing that I do like about the Z is that the lower level models do perform the same (although the sports package may enhance some performance). This car isn't like a Mustang or Camaro, where you can get an underpowered "look alike". I remember when I was in high school and a friend of mine bought an 89 Mustang that only had a 4 cylinder. You could actually walk around under the hood of that thing.

Here's a new one, the doors aren't magnetic and my numbers wont stick to them.

You will have to use glue. The doors, hood and tailgate are aluminum.

Luckily the rear fenders are magnetic and just big enough to cram everything onto it just looks terrible.

In my book this goes on the pros side of things. The long door aren't nearly as heavy as 350 door.

That is a plus. I noticed this on the test drive. Also when you have the windows down and close the door on the 370, it doesn't make a ominous sound like the window is about to shatter

i don't own a 370z...yet. but i drive my friends a lot and a few things i think it needs is the digital speedometer like the 350 and a rear view cam if u get the nav.

Could small pebbles lodged in the tires cause such an obvious clicking sound?

Lmao

Also, there was an instance where I floored the gas to switch lane and the transmission just totally didn't engage. The car barely accelerated and the tachometer hit 9k+. Is this just a misshift or something or I should look into it?

Thats funny. Mis-shift in an auto transmission. Never heard that before, or realize that was possible.

I wish the sport package was standard on the touring Z. The brake calipers on the touring look like they're from the flintstone era. The ray rims look much better than the standard ones.

found this old thread on complaints...

other than the ones listed in the past 22 pages, here's mine...

Front visibility esp the 10ft in front of the car.

I think due to the stance of the car (on stock sus) and the bonnet design, it is hard to see in front of the car. Have missed seeing speed bumps while coming out of carparks a couple times and rode over them without slowing down. Luckliy out of carparks speed is usually pretty slow so didnt scrape anything under the car...

Anyway, perhaps its jus cuz i am a crappy driver.. but then i never had this problem with my all other cars before...
