Nissan 370Z Forum  

When is the next body style Z due? This model looks dated and needs refreshed badly.

I admit my post was designed to invoke a reaction but I expected people to want the same items fixed! Not attack someone for calling out Nissan on not fixing the reoccurring items listed on this forum.

I guess I should post like others asking how I can make a 370 run with a Ferrari or a Porsche? (Those are the troll posts in my opinion, but people here really think a 30K car should run with a car costing 100-300K.)

But if you think I am a troll...please show me one prior post that says one of these items:
1) A liking of the door handles and a wish to keep them the same.
Don't have a problem with them.
2) A post that says the car is quiet inside and very livable.
It's just fine for a sports car
3) How about a post that says keep the front grill.
It looks like a startled staypuff marsh-mellow man.

As for the headlights I think that is split.
Nissan listens to their wallet, or they would have put the oil cooler in the 370Z. They have no interest in fixing anything but the bottom line.

That goes for every car company out there except in relation to halo cars like the Z06, Viper, etc. that are more about image than profit.

How could I forget about the oil cooler! And I heard the brakes have issues, isn't that why one car magazine wrecked one? They fluid gets hot quickly and they lose power?

I expect every car to get refined every year. Slowly make it better.

Actually, no. I was thinking of Porsche. I mentioned earlier, I have given up on Honda. After many years, they lost what made them special. Kill the Prelude, kill the NSX, kill the S2000, and build some hybrid CRZ designed to look like a CRX but have none of the charm? No thanks, I will go back to Honda when they figure out what consumers want.

I agree that the Prelude, NSX, and S2k were all fantastic cars. But the CRZ isn't bad, all things considered. A $23k hybrid with a 6spd manual transmission. It's not horrible. But it's not a performance icon like the S2k or NSX, I agree.
