ohh, didnt know.

To be honnest I don't need or want to convince you (or anyone else for that matter) to buy a Z because I don't personally want to see many of them on the roads :).

I'd recommend a test drive if you're interested :tiphat:

:bowrofl::roflpuke2:

Everything considered, I am pleased with my purchase.

I agree with many who say:
1) Price is good and deals at invoice or below can be had.
2) Very reliable car and mechanically solid.
3) Styling is gorgeous and impressive.
4) Car handles beautifully.

However,
1) Paint is very soft and chips very easily. Gotta' buy a clear bra.
2) Many consider the ride somewhat harsh.
3) Much road noise.

Test drive and decide for yourself.

Answering your reliability-related question, Swede: According to CR magazine, Zs fluctuate between "Better than average" and "Much better than average", so go for it, dude! A sweet, reliable vehicle that also performs well...Can't beat that! I own an '04 Touring Coupe that's v-e-r-y reliable; only repair has been the replacement of the driver's side power window motor. And the 370's got an even more powerful engine, and is much cuter, 100 lbs lighter than mine, and yields a couple more MPG!!!

the challenger, camaro, and espically mustange cant even compare to the 370Z

The best part about the Z is driving it! Some things I don't like (rear 3/4 visibility for one), but all is forgiven when hard on the throttle, heel-toe downshifting into a hard corner, blasting out on the other side... Makes me want to be out driving rather than working!

Touring interior is fairly nice, but not up to modern Audi standards. Ride/handling balance is nearly perfect for road use, could be a bit more controlled on the track. A bit noisy, but mostly in a good way - mechanical and honest. You always know what is going on with it. It is NOT a grand touring car, it's really a sports car. Drive = Love!

Best bang for the buck so far!

:iagree:

I think smart cars were designed with the reasoning that you could buy one(cheap) and still have a Z too! :tup:

My Z makes me want to touch myself.

My Z makes me want to touch fullmonty... :barf:

My Z ACTUALLY makes me TOUCH myself ;) He's touched the right spot haha I love the Z...and all of the Z's generation...wished I've owned more than the 350 and 370z. ready to get an old school Z...they're gorgeous! But I still cherish the 370..... he's awesome!

:yum: :yum: :yum:

The good:
the car loves to be driven hard.
It eats corners and has great front end grip
nice interior for the price
great styling
somewhat exclusive
great aftermarket developing
mods are cheap
motor seems to be able to handle boost (good for those of us power junkies)
this board

the bad:
if you drive it hard you need an oil cooler
blind spot (I had to get a old person mirror after I ran someone out of their lane)
brakes are a little wooden feeling but are getting better now that they are broken in (or I'm just getting used to them)
NVH from the drivetrain, the car sounds and feels like it's going to blow when you get close to the redline.
Nav not iPhone compatible
Bose blows
revs hang in s-mode
