I know we all love our cars but they are still at the end of the day only cars

If rattles are a big issue I'm not sure if the evo would be a right choice for you..

My paint is fine. But then again I drive only in light traffic.

sonic370 · 12-11-2010, 07:17 PM

i'v'e got one small chip on front edge of hood. bought touch up paint at dealership problem fixed. as far as rattles, as i knock on wood i don't have any, and im at 13,000 miles.

i daily drive my car and still enjoy every moment.

mick · 12-11-2010, 07:23 PM

in my experience, after you have driven the car for about 2 or 3 years, you will stop caring about the small stuff

cajunz · 12-12-2010, 12:09 PM

12k with no rock chips and nary a rattle. Still hate how the bugs mar the clear coat though.

jaedub · 12-12-2010, 01:39 PM

So lets say you get this Evo. You think that'll stop you from getting all the chips,dings, scratch, etc? Cant blame your Z for those natural causes....

Jessobear · 12-12-2010, 02:06 PM

My friend has an Evo X and believe me, the front of the thing is full of rock chips. Also, the Evo is a really cheap car with race seats and a great engine and drivetrain. I think you'd be disappointed with most of the rest of the car after have a 370Z. Also, the GSR version is only a 5-speed and it's incredibly short-geared.

fairladyZ34 · 12-12-2010, 03:02 PM

i dont get rock chips either luckily, but during the summer my front end becomes a bug battering ram

spearfish25 · 12-12-2010, 03:49 PM

I thought I was getting a little tired of my car. Then it got banged up last week and I'm without it for three weeks. New hood and front bumper coming, so I'll get my second chance to clear bra them before the chips happen this time around.

Let me tell you this. If you think you're tired of your car, go park it in storage and drive a rental car for a week. The $150 you spend on the rental will 1) show you just how much you love your Z and 2) save you a lot more than $150 if you don't decide to change cars.

I don't hear any rattle with my F.I. CBE.

I parked my Z a month ago or so, and now I drive a Toyota Echo every day.

I sure miss driving my Z!

Sure there are little things that bug me like when I look at the cheap paint, but for me I did not get the clear bra with no intention of trying to protect the crap paint. I knew this before I bought the car, with full intention of repainting the car in a few years.
