Buy Another 370Z?

Personally, I would. For that one, I would go sport all the way (aero kit, and low-profile lip on the trunk would be the only things "looks-wise"). All else would

Personally, I would.

For that one, I would go sport all the way (aero kit, and low-profile lip on the trunk would be the only things "looks-wise"). All else would be chasis/handling upgrades, and the highest quality forced induction tuning I could afford.

It would be an EXCLUSIVE track car. I just like that image of a stock-looking Z flying arould a track, in and out of the curves, looking oh so good

No, and everyone knows I've had problems, but lets say Nissan bought my car back and gave me an incentive to buy a new one, I'd spec it EXACTLY the same

Coming from the 350, hell yeah I would! Maybe the 2014 with premium sound though!

I guess it would have to depend on what the new model(s) will offer. As of now once my lease is over, will be stepping back into a BMW M series of some sort.

Ya i want a luxury sports car so bad. Even though the Z is sexy it still brings alot of boy racer tendencies which suck for a daily driver. I just want to drive to work without getting revved on by a Mustang GT.

Tough question! I regret nothing of the decision to get my Z, and love it, but would I get it again if my car disappeared tomorrow? I don't know.

And that has nothing to do with the Z or my happiness with it. It's just a matter of whether I want to try something else if given that chance, or meet different needs (things that Z doesn't meet, like winter driving, practicality, etc). I've not driven enough cars to know which few make me the happiest, so I'd probably try something else.

For the Z, I'd stick with my model (auto coupe, gunmetal, touring+sport, no nav).

Yes I would. Current is black touring sport roadster. New would be Midnight Blue with grey leather. The car is my daily driver and I love it.

I don't think I would. Love the car, but I don't like all the attention it gets. Everyone stares at it and says how cool it looks. I didn't think that would bother me but it does.
