Are you happy with your 370z?

If I could crush up my Z and snort it, I wouldnt sleep for days

resdm50 · 06-09-2010, 02:59 PM

The only complaint I have about mine is the incessant paint chips, the car is amazing in every other facet.

toxik · 06-09-2010, 03:07 PM

I love the Z!!!!!!!!! i'm so happy in every aspect except one...

it gets way too much attention, when I'm driving or standing next to the car, that's a good thing. When I street park it to go somewhere, especially in Manhattan, I feel the worst anxiety of my life. I think it's bad for my health.

Too pricey...? It is the best sports car on the road at its current price point. The only issue I have is the jackasses who constantly want to one-up me on the road...like they are pissed because they are not driving my car. I constantly get race challenges from drivers of Honda Accords, Toyota Priuses, a Volkswagen beetle, and even 4X4 F250 Pickups trying to burn the back of my neck with their fog lights. I usually don't pay much heed to them, except some are reckless and dangerous just to try to get a rise out of me...

While they'll offer similar performance numbers, none of these cars I would put in the same class. I'm not saying the Z is any better or worse, its just that these aren't cars I would ever look at if I was shopping for a Z.

But a porsche cayman for example would cost me $85 000 so its not cheap with cars in Sweden.

Was about to order a BMW 335is for $55k. I realized buying a Nismo for $38k makes me just as HAPPY! Easy on the wallet and don't need all the bells and whistles or the Prestige/Ego of owning a Beamer just yet..

At about $30k or so, a 370Z in the States is a lot of bang for the buck.

For me, nothing else is close.

Really the looks just put it way out front.

Sounds like in the Union BMW or Porsche is the way to go.

list models and prices, please

autopc25 · 06-13-2010, 04:48 PM

We have it lucky in the States, cars cost less here then in many other countries. The Z is a lot of car for the money. I love the balance and styling more and more everyday. The only 2 down sides seem to be brake pad compound and the lack of a oil cooler. Both seem to be easy fixes if someone needs them. I'd recommend a 370Z in a heartbeat!

sonic370 · 06-13-2010, 06:51 PM

I just bought mine last 09 on the lot. and i hate it the damn thing keeps calling my name drive me,drive me. i can't keep my a// out of it.the only car i miss more is my c5 corvette

PapoZalsa · 06-13-2010, 08:17 PM

I would it be happier if modshack was my neighbor!

SophiaZ · 06-13-2010, 08:31 PM

I'm head over heals in-love with my Z..and yes..I only have the base model

I've done a few small things to it, and it doesn't compare to any other car IMO. I'm just a big Z fan. I liked the Camaros at first but to me, the interior is cheesy. And the Mustang's are too played out to the American publicity. Point blank, the Z is better bang for the buck and plus you wont see them every 5-10 minutes on the road

StLRedrider · 06-13-2010, 11:31 PM

no, not at all!!!!!

2004YZFR1 · 06-13-2010, 11:53 PM

I love my Z, it makes me smile ever time I drive it! It's fast, handels good and has great brakes. What more could you ask for in this price range?
