The 370z is nice, but IMHO, and many will agree with it as they have at many conventions, the Z32 is the cream of the crop. Reason why they are in high demand for TT models now and the prices for one are higher than they should be. Kinda like the Toyota Supra.

Yet when I talk to older Z owners, who have owned over the years and have gone through the many ranks (240-260-etc) all fall back onto the 240z and say the 300 is nice but really not a true Z. Many say it lacked what made a Z a Z, yes the 300 was fast and had a TT from factory, but it missed the mark on style, exterior & interior. They took some pieces out of the equation to make the 300 and it turned out to be a great car but lost much of its heritage to the Z.

Correct and that's why I said 240Z in my original post.

I always liked the looks of the 300. But any OLD CAR is gonna cost you thousands of $$$ in maintenance per year.

I've owned many beater cars over the years (current is a smokin' '96 Camry) and they all require at least $1000-$1500 a year. Old rubber, rust, oxidation of various wires, connectors, etc... takes it's toll.

Had. The 350Z was a sharp car, especially the NISMO model. But the 370z is nicer. No need to bad mouth a brother to make yourself feel better about your purchase. Your 370z design came from the 350z in a good portion of it's looks. It was just modified to meet a look of the original 240z.

The Z32 is awesome. My favorite Z of all time. Made the top 25 most beautiful cars list too!

You don't even have the ugly 350Z any more. Jealous, huh? And I don't need to "feel better about my purchase". I KNOW I have a rockin' 370Z :tiphat:

I still say that you should buy the newest car you can afford. Less headaches.

You know, you come across as a arrogant ***. Might want to look at how you type things and try to pull back some. Just some advice.
