Anyways....(my first non honda car ever) the 370z compared to the s2k....hmm the power is a big difference....i think handling was definitely better in the s2k and definitely funner to drive and there are big blind spots in the z. The z is much heavier n steering is much slower than the s2k, i havent really gotten used to it yet. Interior totally blows away the s2k, its bigger n its a true keyless, bluetooth, bose stereo system, opt. nav, heated/powered seats, auto dim rearview mirror, and oh cup holders (haha try using a cup holder in a s2k). The center is another cup holder, but theres a glove box if u need more space. I'm still kinda used to the big digital gauge of the s2k. The biggest determining factor for me and what stopped me from getting another s2k was the synchro revmatch...no more having to rev match manually and heel toe and all that...instead of accidently over/under revving the car does it perfect 100% of the time. It's gonna be like cheating in the canyon. lol overall the technology on the z is not even comparable at this point, although life without vtec might be boring tho. But the 370 seems to be mod friendly not like the s2k almost losing power with any upgrade.
Thanks for the reply!
How does the real world mileage compare? I was surprised too see that the epa mileage is the same for both cars. I am able to get almost 30mpg at steady 60mph but around town it can be pretty thirsty.

On my s2k i got about 230-245 miles per full tank roughly 11.5 gallons. On my Z i got about 300 miles with a full tank at roughly 15 gallons. I forgot to mention you would love the trunk space. Also road noise isn't as bad as the
s2k. Ride quality is much better in the Z, but you know you sacrifice ride quality for better handling.
