Road noise is not that bad, but the limited visibility (blinds spots) is something you as a driver need to get used to it. I do have to look twice or three times especially on the passenger side. I already have the driver side down pack.

Other than that I'll see tomorrow when I pick up the car since they are they replacing my front bumper and I will have no holes. :tup:

Exactly right! Mine is the same. :mad:

So far just the pass side rear view. If a car is on my right, out of view from the rear hatch window, but not up far enough to make it to my pass side mirror it is completely not visible. I've been getting into the habit of giving it a little gas before I change lanes while I look out that mirror for the guy floundering on my side. Or I just try to avoid tight passes altogether.

The paint bugs me. I've had the car for 3 months and I have paint chips to the primer and clear coat scratches on the hood. And some jackass put 4 chips in the paint behind the passanger door (must have hit it hard with his door)

Road noise = turn the radio up
blind spots = know they are there and be careful

The best thing about the car is the engine and road noise, especially the Nismo.

Mis-matched paint from the factory.

chuckd05 04-14-2010 09:59 PM

paint is really my only complaint , way too soft and chips way too easily ... also my bumpers were mis matched but nissan covered a respray of front and rear and they match fine so Im happy...

Csquared 04-14-2010 10:03 PM

If i resprayed they need to do, A pillers, front & rear bumper, fuel cap. I dont' want them to rip my car apart to respray! lol.

1. road noise - i'd like to preserve my hearing for as long as possible and Australian roads generally are bad...

2. hatch springs... why are they so weak, my replacement ones are failing on me now.

3. fuel guage... the last dot not lighting up bugs me...

4. engine's not buttery smooth like my dad's 1999 maxima... that 3L VQ was like butter...

5. hood anchor point... as a result of the anchor being to one side, the hood alignment goes out after awhile... doublesided gas struts would be nice...

none of the above are deal breakers and change the fact that the car is freakin awesome to drive (which was the main criteria for the car) but it would be nice if the car didn't have the above listed issues.

Dont be afraid to repsray it... They will cover it, they did for me. And find a very good shop and have them bring it to them, or look into their body shop, stop by the shop and ask to see some finsished products...

Its thousands of dollars to be spent when your car needs paints yet most people dont do any research to see how the shop is. I must drive shops crazy but I know they know what i expect and it is better than way.

Push push push to get it resprayed because you deserve it if your car is off that badly.. you paid a lot of money, it should not be a two tone car, my bumpers were awful and no one at Nissan didnt agree, it went as smooth as I could of hoped for.

I can't say for sure. I caught it when I was washing it, but 90% of my driving is to and from work. I put my money on "on post". :mad:

My biggest beef with my 370z is the owner...
