370Z Cons?

So as I posted, I am considering (seriously) a 370Z touring auto w/sport and nav to replace my 1991 NSX auto.

From my test drive, I noticed the funny sound of the turn signal and the bottom hinged accelerator pedal. It had very linear acceleration, but so does the NSX. Nothing else seemed bad to me coming from the NSX, but my test drive in the roadster may have hidden some road noise (with aftermarket exhaust, the NSX is pretty loud at highway speeds as well).

What do longer term owners think are cons or felt the need to change?

I've had no issues, really, but I've only owned it since late April. Some folks mention issues with oil temps, road noise, and clutch in the manual. Take a quick search around. Most people are generally happy with their Z's.

:bowrofl:

LOL, but on a serious note, these aluminum doors should fare a lot better than my Evo's aluminum doors - they actually start to warp because of the door handle placement. These shouldn't ever have that problem.

General Washington is angry that you would suggest his car has "cons."

Since my daily driver is all foil, I think I can get used to the doors :)
