Is a 370Z a classy car?

RogueDPS · 05-12-2010, 03:17 PM

Depends who's driving it.

If I'm in it, no way.

If my wife's in it, you bet! As long as she's not in the process of hitting the snow blower while backing it out of the garage or curbing the wheel while driving down the street.

I always referred to my g35 coupe as a classier 350z.... Never thought about a g37 coupe looking classier than my 370z... but I don't think that holds true, but maybe g37 owners think so, lol.

I think the 370z has some class , sure , but in all honestly when you park it next to a nice new fully loaded 335i the BMW prob looks classier with ours looking more aggressive... When I park next to my friends 09 550i , I realize its not as "classy" as his.... but it def. doesn't look out of place next to his car or other very nice cars when I park next to them. The 370z is a sick looking car but I would say its more towards the "look at me, aggressive" side of the classiness spectrum. Dunno if that will make sense to anyone but me though lol.

it really all depends on your interpretation of the definition of " classy "

But I like to think its a classy car for its price range and genre...

It's got some class, but that's mostly because the average person thinks it's a Porsche at first. Once they see the Nissan "hamburger" it quickly gets relabeled as a slut (it's her dirty little secret).

She's a speed nympho..... a corrupting slutty wench.

Corrupting is an excellent adjective for the Z. Pushing that pedal down and swooping through S-turns... I go way too fast on a sunny day. And yet in my beater car, I'm about the most defensive driver you'd come across.

If ever I pop on a tune like "Highway Star" or "Black Sunshine", I'm almost guaranteed a traffic ticket.

Yep, same here. Since I added the sways, I'm even more invincible. Finding new limits on the winding curves. Unfortunately my tires aren't keeping up with my enthusiasm. Only 11,000 mi. and time to replace them. Aaargh.

Id say the Z has a long, high level history that makes it classy in its own right.

Jeffblue · 05-13-2010, 11:56 AM

i think the interior of the touring/nav Z is quite classy. the exterior, more aggressive and sporty.

Then my Websters definition I would say the Z is classy. I think its pretty stylish, and it does have some sophistication

Classy IMO means luxury in good taste: hence Lexus LS, GS, Jag XF etc etc. The Z is sexy but not classy!
