Potential Buyer Totally Turned Off
 
Today I sat in a Z for the first time, a '10 Black Cherry Touring Sport with nav and manual transmission. The car was beautiful but I was totally turned off by the sound of the driver door closing. The door sounded thin and flimsy, and lacked the thunk sound of well- built cars. I walked away, the Z not for me.

kinda shallow to base a cars quality on the "sound" of its door closing. i can understand the feeling though, but i could never be dissuaded by this when you consider that the Z has more quality per square inch than most every other car in its price range, without exaggeration.

What the hell did you expect it to sound like, a tank? Trust me friend its plenty sturdy, and has a thud to it.

You drive a Miata and you think a Z feels thin and flimsy???

I also drive a Miata and think you're a little off base in your assessment.

your joking right? let's getttt real.

Why's the door sound so tinny and feel so flimsy though?

Aren't the doors Aluminum not steel like other cars? Doesn't mean cheap just lighter and better

Complaining about how a door closes? Really?

Wow, who would have thought that pic would get so much mileage so quickly?

My '09 GT PRHT is built like a tank man, solid, tight and well- screwed. The door to the Z didn't come close to inspiring that kind of confidence in it's build quality.
