Why a 370Z, Why not a G37

kidkotic2001 · 06-24-2011, 06:55 PM

G is not a sports car, if I wanted something that looked European I would have gotten a European car.

Z is a much nicer car and handle ling is better.

Hehe.. Z370 may own corvette on corners. I watched a video on YouTube and they were comparing a Ford Mustang GT and Z370 in a race track. Both car has almost same number on 0-60, quarter mile and braking time from 60-0. But Z370 has a lot more precisions than a mustang. So clearly a Z370 is a winner here.

For the love of God, learn how to spell. And BMW doesn't make a Z370

200KG less for the Z.

/thread

P.S. I see that you also own a B8 A4, I switch from that to the Z also, and let me tell you that you'll miss all those luxury items, but the feeling you get from the Z will replace those. Instead of luxury/AWD/boring, you'll enjoy responsiveness of the car, the feel of that extra 120HP, and the fun from RWD.

Thanks for sharing your experience. 370Z will be my weekend car while I'm keeping the A4. I really like the 370Z's aggressive look. Case closed.

Simple - 11.8".

An extra nearly 1 foot of wheelbase length in the G37. That much longer wheelbase makes any car a totally different handling car. Some people don't like short wheelbase cars though.

Proper sports car = rear wheel drive and two seats

I seriously considered a G37 Coupe before I bought my 370. I drove many of them and I really did enjoy all of the luxury. I love everything about it actually.

The deal breaker was the fact that the G37 never really felt like a sports car to me. It would probably be easier to live with everyday and look just as good, but I didn't want to mod one like I wanted to mod my 370.

Great cars, just not sporty enough for me.
