Seems the bad seats don't dissuade them. I myself am going to join the Z06 camp in a few months I think.

I heard that mint chocolate chip buyers are happier than rocky road buyers.

All sweeping generalizations are universally true in all situations.

Seriously, did you even read this when you typed it?

Haven't you ever met a person who has a great car but doesn't appreciate it, or maybe someone else with a real beater who loves it like a dream car? I'm sure there are Z06 owners who want a better car (faster, more prestigious, whatever), even though it's already a fantastic car. And I know there are 370z owners who treat it as their dream car.

Come on, man.

Come on, man! haha. nice.

Yes, I would still buy. I've had absolutely no problems with mine. The performance is all I expected and more. And, the most important part, I've had a great time in mine. So to all those nay-sayers out there that enjoy bashing and trashing this car.... at least I'm convinced it's a very good if not great car for the money I've spent.

(flame away or rep-point me if you agree)

Absolutely would buy it again- daily driver (except winter) ~ 22 K miles- 2years & tracked- never had any problems - all is what I expect from this car

Support your claim with data?

Would you buy again? - Corvette Forum

Looks to me like 20% more Z06 owners would buy again than 370Z owners. At least, based on polls posted on similar websites dedicated to the respective vehicles. Far from conclusive, yes, but it is an equal comparison.

wilsonp · 11-05-2010, 05:11 PM

Excellent G37 picture, I would consider a G37x if I could get over having a back seat... and it is a little slow

Apparently, the guys in this forum love cake more than anything.

So I need to buy a Z06 and some cake, and I will have attained Nirvana.

Well, there's 16 "wouldn't buy again" votes in the poll here currently for people who wouldn't buy a Z again. I could only find 9 "No" posts, and here they are summarized:

No, I wouldn't buy a Z again because:

Zolfix: I like variety

m4a1mustang: I like variety

Red_Zed: I want a back seat

Rui Z: I'd buy a 2012 Miata

c41006: variety

HOOPZ: "Nissan Corporate customer service"

spitfire9200: oil consumption, premature brake wear, noisy/annoying
clutch/transmission, grinding 2nd & 6th gears, clutch slave cylinder and Nissan
Consumer Affairs sucks

puckshaw: I like variety and not enough power

Mazaki: I grew, Z stayed the same size

Lots of guys lookin' for variety. So maybe Z owners are more "free spirits" than the Corvette guys (or just playahs!)!

Unless they have a cake option you can't compare the polls. Seriously.
