Ha, that explains why getting the hatch open is a two step process for me.

Interesting, seems to be an isolated incident or something that a tranny and lsd fluid change would fix.

Seems that way.

Are you buying from a dealer? Tell them anything other than a rev D steering lock is a deal breaker. Also make sure the tires have at least 50% tread or so

OK so I saw the car, I had never driven one before. I have driven the 350Z nismo. I think it feels similar (on the street) than the 350z nismo but faster. I would have to test it at the track to tell the difference in handling. It also feels a little bit more tight and better built overall. the clutch feel is excellent too. I am 6'4" and I had no problem AT ALL inside the car. It actually has more legroom than many larger cars.

Anyways I love the car and I am getting a 370z, I think I am able to get a 2010 model or even a 2011, I have been searching autotrader and dealerships and seems that the 09s and 2011's have around a 5-6k difference before tax.

I didnt think I would like the cloth seats, but I actually like it, specially with white stitching. I cant wait to buy the car. but im gonna wait and buy a newer model, ive neber bought an used car and I think it might be best to get the car with less thank 15k miles.

I saw somewhere they added a stock oil cooler for 2011. is this true? if so, how well does this oil cooler perform when driven hard?

thanks for all the help, im already getting addicted to this forum :rofl2:

Its on the 2012 model. Its only good for normal commuting though. Any if you plan on running that baby. Better get yourself at least a 19 row oil cooler with the thermo plate.

sorry if i missed but how are you going to use your car.. weekend's or DD...

if you don't plan on tracking it there's not much to be concerned about....
nothing a good test drive won't uncover....

these cars are well made and imho very dependable....

rear hatch is a easy fix. steering wheel lock seems to be luck or unluck of the
draw. but will set you back 500......

if the car has lead a good life so far you can't go wrong....welcome to the family enjoy........................................
