The Rare 370Z

ok.......living in a town that has high volume z's, I've seen one black and a few others, but considering the exposure with dealership, not much.....must be from out of town.

I didn't see many 350z's the first couple years they came out. Now I see them everywhere! I bet the 370z will eventually be the same way.

We actually have 3 Z's is little podunk Nac, TX. Mine, a white convertable with sports package and red base model. Never come across them on the road though.

I have noticed a very large increase in the number of 350z running around the college here. Most are not well taken care of. One of them is super riced out, so my friends and I call it super-hero.

I kind of doubt it. The 370z has sold a rediculously low number of units compared the 350z.

Ya thats a BIG factor, especially in this area where most people store their Z for 4-5 months a year. Not everyone wants or can spend 35-40K on a car that can take one passenger, drinks gas and use 70% of the year.

I'm lucky, I talked my wife's ear about this Z so much that although we had a huge wedding and have a 5 month old son now...selling the Z is NOT on the table

In the Tampa area, I'm starting to see more and more pop up. I saw a grey convertible and a modded white coupe today. I saw a black Nismo sometime in the past week. Saw a black coupe as well yesterday.

As long as it's not at Lutz Performance...

Yours isn't a convertible, is it?

I didn't see any on the road for about 6 months in Austin (other than at a meet). I know of three in the neighborhood now - two of em showed up in last two months within 10 houses of mine!

The longest I gone without seeing a 370 was 3 months. But that was back in 2010. Now the longest I will go is about 3 weeks. Maybe 4???
