370z Complaints so far?

definitely not flaming. Why do you think im so involved in the 370 site? Honda has been doing nothing but disappointing enthusiasts for the past few years. They got absolutely nothing sporty going for them. No s2k replacement, no nsx successor, no rwd 6 cyl coupe, no nothing. All they're doing (with toyota) is creating tree hugging instruments. That's exactly why a lot of people are converting to nissan. Nissan is doing everything right rite now for enthusiasts. I love the 370 too and appreciate your feedback!

Yeah, the S2000 is a Honda and is completely built in Japan. You can never compare that kind of reliability to that of a 370Z. A Honda is a Honda.

370Zs are not completely foreign made, right?

Wrong. The 370Z is off-the-boat Japanese.

Yea, it is a real shame Honda got cold feet when the economy tanked, and pulled the NSX replacement. They were so far along in development, seemed a shame to drop it at this stage of development. They are taking the "safe", make money approach to automobile building. Things go in cycles. I remember after the gas crisis in 1973/74, you couldn't buy anything with any horsepower other than an exotic. Maybe when things turn around, they'll jump back in, but by then they'll be behind the curve, unless they continue R&D on the side.
