If you had to do it over again, would you still buy the 370z??

Its not the most practical car, but who cares!

deff not practical. my whole family hates it. i have a nismo and is so stiff. but then again thats a nismo. its deff fun to drive mess around show off. but its deff not a daily driver.

absolutely yes. the only regret I have is that my z doesnt have the factory navigation, but there really isn't anything I could do about it since its not offered on the 40th.

jaxxx · 03-04-2011, 11:13 AM

Im not really trying to compare it to the is350 since both cars are made for a very different purpose..... I just realize that I want a more sporty car instead of a luxury sedan.

Im also considering the s2000

I do wish the 40th came with the Navigation option! I would have purchased one!

I would definitely get it again just never in black. My last car was black so I was ready for swirl marks but the paint on these cars is complete crap. If I did it over I would prob get a 40th or nismo in PW or GM. I got the sport/touring for some sense of practicality as its my DD but once the modding bug sets in none of that matters

roadfever · 03-04-2011, 10:49 AM

I would do it again in a heartbeat.

rebe945 · 03-05-2011, 05:51 PM

yes, absolutely. If they modify the body style in 2013 ,i'd consider trading it in for the new style, also.

The is350 is no match for the 370. The is350 was practically out of control* in front of me as we went down the hill together, I just used my gears to slow down and the brakes only to avoid rear ending him. If you don't pick the 370 at least get something that handles better.

* on the edge at any rate.

Corona370z · 03-04-2011, 11:04 AM

I definitely would but as much as I love it in black I would probably go with a different color. I use it as a daily drive and not one day goes by that I think I should've gotten something else. Yea, it's a little impractical when it comes to grocery shopping or hauling big items but that's what friends with trucks are for.

yep, my Z is great. this is my first z-car and im real happy i got her. perfect weekend fun for me away from work and family.

good looks, excellent performer on the street even in stock form, nice compact size, economical to own. will do it all over again.

I DD my Z with no problem. I considered this issue when buying it and I never really need more than 2 seats or a ton of cargo space. If you can do the same, just DD the 370Z. You could also still get a used 370Z and use the money you save for mods

yah but we're not talking about you.

i need 4 seats, got 2 kids and a wife, and stuff to carry at times. can't physically do it with just the Z in my case...and im sure many others with a young family.
