At least for those of you who own a 360z. I found a car cover for you. I bought this yesterday and thought you guys might like it.

i wish i owned a 360z.

Nice! So good to know that somewhere out there is a whole series of 3.6 litre Z33.5s running around!

They must all come stock with the cloak of invisibility! :)

The 370z is too much of a step for me, coming from the 350z. I should have gone with an intermediate model first.

360z sounds like a toothbrush

Crap, I was dumb enough to get the 362.43Z :D

I couldn't handle the donuts. Kept spilling my coffee

Well they started to make them. But they were too "riced out" , so I think Nissan cancelled the car. :tup:

Some chic at work actually got angry with me when I said "There is no 360Z". She swore a friend of hers had one. Got all huffy. Googled it (You can find a hit for damn near anything on Google) and found a few links with "360Z" in the description, crammed it triumphantly in my face, and stalked off.

I really hate "360Z".

People ask me all time if my car is a 360Z. When I correct them, they seem confused, and many insist on continuing to call it a 360. I thought it was just me!

When people get confused, I just explain to them how cars are often named after their engine displacement. I point out to them, for example, that a BMW 335i has a 3.5 liter engine. A 540i has a 5.4. A Mercedes E350 has a 3.5, etc. That's when the light bulb goes off and they go away happy, feeling like they learned something.

pretty sure the 335i is a 3.0 liter engine, and there is no 5.4 liter engine for the 5 series (or any 5.x liter engine). this logic does work for the mercedes though. :tiphat:

People also cofuse the Altima Coupe with the Z. A co-worker saw one from behind and told me that was a 350. I told him to bet for a lunch...he was too cheap. :shakes head: He would lost. :bowrofl:

My mom couldn't tell the difference between a 350Z and a 370Z when i showed her pics of both. This was before I bought the car though, I wonder if she can tell now.

Semtex, I always thought that was the case with BMW, but after Drex's response I was shocked to find the BMW does a fair amount of "rounding" up or down on their engines compared to the model numbers.:icon14:

I must assume Nissan has begun the same practice, and will be disassembling my VQ engine and measuring the displacement. Perhaps we ARE all driving 360 Z's! :stirthepot:

Yeah I'm a little shocked about BMW too. And actually, Mercedes has started messing with the numbers matching the displacement too. The new CL63 AMG, for example, has a 5.5L bi-turbo V-8. Their justification is that with the turbos, it has the 'equivalent' displacement of a NA 6.3. I wonder if that's the logic that BMW is using too (3.0 + turbo = 3.5).

That's the same voice that was in my head when I posted it.
