The Z has been a great platform and much more to come soon, enjoying every minute in the driver seat.

So many have moved on from the 350 and now to the 370Z... That's not just owner loyalty, that's not just hope for improvement over what during its time (350) everyone loved to own and be part of when part of the Z community... You can see some remnant of the Z car ICON across the ages of the Z. And there are not too many cars out there that have tried so to stay true to their roots. Oh sure you can buy a retro car nostalgic of the 70s.. but its ALL Facade...

Is the 370 worth it? I only have one thing to say to a guy who drives a mini, or a MINI... or a MiNi... (no offense) asking 370 owners on a 370 forum to convince you....

Wrap one round your A$$ and see for yourself. There is nothing like the OOOo Ahhh of a Z, especially in the twisties.

Well, 370z has more power then the mini, but 232 HP in a tiny mini is ALOT of fun.

A new 370 z Black edition costs me $61 317 in Sweden.

What is the difference between black edition and a regular one?

Now that is something you'll likely have to look up over there. Since (unless i am mistaken) the black edition is only available in Europe... Similar to the black edition - here we have the 40th Anniversary Edition - it only comes in something close to Platinum Graphite in color some call it Quartz - color code KAV. It includes 40th badging on 'Red' leather over suede seats, the tail, and engine strut and on a plaque between the seats. It is a touring model with the sport pkg upgrade... 19 inch wheels & Tires and an OEM big brake kit, blue tooth and XM Sat radio. The sport package also include a Syncro-Rev matching 6 spd manual tranny. My last vehicle was an 06 350ZR (convertible) 5 AT. I thought it handled well and it did - especially with the suspension work I had done on it... but IMHO, in every instance where the 350 was rougher around the edges... improvements on the 370 make it a superior vehicle - It simply amazed me on the Tail of the Dragon.

so why is the 370 so much more expensive in Europe than the states? The 370 is a great car and I love owning one but if I had to spend 60k on it I think I would go for a porsche or something more along those lines. When the car is 30-40K its a no brainer though the 370 wins everyday.

Absolutely do not get a yellow 370Z. I want to be among the few who chose this car with this color.

Well I was always told it had something to do with taxes. If you check the non-VAT price of the 370z over here in Europe, it's basically the same price as they get in the US.

Over in Belgium it's more like 45k VAT for one with full options (orange leather, 19" + GPS, etc.), without VAT I think it's more like 35-37k.

You're lucky they stopped making the yellows! Great color and even better looking in person!
