2011 Nissan 370Z Review – Still a Winner

This interview nailed the Z for what it is. The most well built and one of the most technologically advanced and most fun to drive car in the price range. I really enjoyed reading this review. I hope other enthusiasts like it to?


I searched to make sure its not a repost. If it is? Sorry.

I didn't learn anything from this article, but it sure was nice to not have the car torn apart for lacking a rear seat.

That's the reason Lexus exists. Hushed silence and backseats galore

It's a sports car not a luxury car. Anything that doesn't make the car faster, safer, more nimble, or lighter is just luxury. You have cabin noise turn up the radio. You want back seats get a charger.

Going by that logic, then the Z shouldnt have a radio, a/c, heater, interior panels, sunroof, because those are all luxury items.

I'm so sick of reviews done by dumb soccer moms saying that tire noise is a problem, or the engine is "raucous" and "unrefined" and "loud" when you rev it up...

Buy a Maxima if you want sport/luxury.

I wish the stock exhaust was a little louder, even.

I was reading the Consumer Reports review of the Z the other day, going by their review you'd think the Z was the antichrist

Here's a list of crap that I have seen in various reviews:

- Limited cargo space
- "Cramped" interior
- Noisy engine
- Road noise
- Low seating position
- Tough to get in and out of

Really? It's a sports coupe. Do you review Buicks and complain that they don't pull 1G on the skidpad?
