Wat do you mean 'sound like an arse'? You are an arse! :icon17: ;)
but if you got kids the inflation does pack a decent punch each month (food, clothing, presents for their buddy's bdays x20 + daycare + savings for their college. :)

Most normal families can't afford a 2 seater so they don't have much interest to begin with.

How many pages before the death threats happen?

There will be no death threats, nuT... OR ELSE :icon08:

i am, i will be the first one to admit. its one thing to be an arse, i just didnt want to sound like i am some rich prick who doesnt care about an extra 10 bux in grocery, mainly because i am so in the middle that i get dried anal raping daily.

the 20 bux is minor compare to the 250% increase in tutition.

Lol... like I was saying in the beginning. People don't know much about the Z. I guess its not advertised enough so it doesn't sell as much. I know its a niche market and I also know not many people buy 2 seat sports cars. I just find it strange in a country of over 100 million working class citizens, that a car as fun and affordable as the Z is not as well known as say a mustang. In my little world I would think sports car enthusiasts know all the sports cars??? Or maybe I greatly overestimated the amount of enthusiasts out there. Either way, the world should know that nissan built a car that kills the already sick 350z. 350z is legendary in my book as is the G35. I gotta say the 370Z took it there: can't say the same for the G37: so sad. If they would have just took 250lbs off the G and shortened its wheelbase 3 inches. It would have been the sickest GT out there.

There are just people out there that don't know the Z's lineage and know that it changes designations every so often, the 350 was just a popular model. Some just look at the 370 and say, look at the new 350. To most despite what we think they look alike, and they just think of it as a 350 or the "new" 350z. I do agree that it need to be marketed more although, heck even here in S.Cal "car capitol" where you see new C6's etc, you hardly ever see 370's........

i am with you, the 370 is pretty much a 2nd gen 350.

true that. since im saving up for my kids' tuition, it's several grand each month im using as operation cost for them and savings...

It isn't merely a new gen, if you look at it technically, since they share almost zero parts.

However, they are still almost identical in design and performance, with the 370 being an improvement in both, imo.

why does the 370z not sell? well all comes down to the money...... people just dont have it and the little money they do have, they are saving because of the hard times. why would they spend thousands of dollars theey dont have?

Money is the problem or at least ONE of the MAIN problems they arent selling right now now as much.

Me too
 

I get the 350Z all the time as well. If you want to be one of the rare few, the Kansas City area seems to be it. I have to look at mine to see another one and its an 09. It gets better gas mileage than my 86 RX7 5spd did with its 146 hp rotary engine.

i understand, but a 5 bux increase is not hyper inflation, not anywhere close to what we have to pay extra in education, insurance, housing, gas, energy.

I think to the average consumer it comes off as just a new gen. Im no Mustang guru so I refer to them as the "new" or "old" Mustang on the road.

I understand that public perception may lead to that, sure, but the general public aren't car enthusiasts either, which is :rofl2: and :crying: all at the same time. :bowrofl:

I feel like getting a fuel effiecient car/slow car is not really that fuel efficient or w.e. I had a 2008 altima 2.5s sedan before i got the z. I know i ate more gas in that car just because the car was too damn slow. i would have to floor it to drive with the crowd. But in the z you dont have to floor it. Just a little acceleration and you have already driven like a half a mile.
