Nissan does not need to advertise the 370. Its a car the sells its self. Most people know they want that car and thats it. They walk into the dealer knowing thats the car they want. Unlike an Altima or something.

i dont think people who lives outside of the snowbelt realize how annoying it is to buy a car that cant be driven in the snow without spending 1200 on rims and tires

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.

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.

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

and

all at the same time.

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.
