I understand that you had a bad experience with your G35 and have every right to be mad, I would be too if it happened to me. I just don't understand why your hating on the 370Z for a problem that seems to only affect a very small number of owners.

Also, the sales decrease has more to do with the economy and the increased competition than an "inferior" product from Nissan. When the economy goes down, I would think sales for sports cars like the 370Z are more affected than something like a civic or carry. Sports cars are more of a for fun kind of thing and when people are worried about losing their jobs, buying a $30k fun car is not high on their priority list. In today's market you have much bigger competition than back in the 350Z days. Cars like the new camaro and the genesis coupe weren't around back then. The new mustang is also considered more of a bang for your buck performance car as well. All of these and other cars are eating into the Z's market share. Nissan may need to update the 370Z to compete with all of these new cars and to get back some of that market share.

Just giving my opinion.
Once bitten ,twice shy.

I have a strong interest in the 370z.
It's slightly lighter (albeit only 95 lbs).
New VVEL for the VQ37VHR engine with a rated 332 hp. (still need more hp).
wheel base 4" shorter. Better rigidity and suspension.
A much better and smoother transmission with the synchro-Rev-Match 6mt. (350z and G35 had a terrible 6mt).

Nissan sales numbers for the Z would be higher today if they had immediately fixed the problem with oil burning/consumption problems within the first year of the failed "Rev-Up" engine.

I look forward to what Nissan reveals in the coming years for the Z.

More HP?
Reduced cabin noise?
Keep the diesel engine in the Benz!
Zero oil burning (and I do mean ZERO)

and so on.............
