It was down to a 2012 Mustang 5.0, Subaru WRX, Camaro or the Z. The Z always stood out for its own reasons, not the fastest, not the best handling but overall value at doing all things well and its extreme good looks decided it for me. And the fact they are not on every corner. My red 2012 Z with sport package should be here to me this week. If it isn't, then I'll get my deposit back and wait for the 2013's.

Good for you....The Mustangs and the Camaros are a dime a dozen unless you buy a special ZL-1 or Super Snake..I haven't seen a 370Z in my area..

Plenty of 350Z and everything else...I like having something that no one normally drives...Both my Z's are not seen everyday, and i love it..What you may give up in straight line speed, you will gain in looks and Chicks..

Yeah, it's really a treat when I see a 370z on the street cuz you never see them driving around. Especially when it's a cool color like Monterey Blue...

They are very cool...I washed my wife's 350Z the day i bought her the black 370Z , which i also washed...I could feel the difference in the lines...The windows, the roof, the doors, everything is different, and very sexy..

She had to have Black..Great, now I have two black hot rods to keep clean..

I also had a very nice 300Zx with P7 tires a few years before the 350Z...In it's day, it was the sweetest car...i saw many a car in my rear view mirror sideways in the turns trying to keep up...That 300Zx i had set up to handle and brake like a race car.

Now i have the new school 370z and old school Track beast/Pro Touring Z/28..

Yumm!

I would call torque good, not great. But for the power on tap handliing is incredible. To surpass this kind of handling in under 40k, you have to buy cars with considerably less power. And honestly, the Z doesn't fall so short that I would want to go that route.

Cruise at 6000 rpm, you'll achieve that and then some.

Two words... Tranny Scream. And no, I'm not talking about the Thailand type.

I just love that sound. It reverberates best on the smoothest of pavement and I'm instantly transported into video game land. Dangerous territory indeed.

People accuse me of "robbing the cradle" when I pick up some chick in her fifties..:happydance:

I owned a Red, 2012 MazdaSpeed3 for 3 months and drove it daily to work. Not one person noticed it. The first day I drove my '09 Chicane Yellow 370Z to work, I got email messages congratuating me. Enough said!

Amuse370z 06-18-2012 12:25 PM

I love the look of the interior orange lights.

I love how the key fob never leaves my pocket.

Those were the ones that were the most different compared to my old cars.

such a rarity this car is. heck its practically a no show ! so when one emerges from the Darkness of its lair , you bet it turns heads. and im pretty sure its a head tuner more so than say... the Vette. The Mustangs exc...sure they may have more power exc. but theres just ALOT of them out there. so when people look at them its like " cool a vette" or " sweet a mustang"

unlike the reactions i get in my Z of " WOW!!!!! that thing looks sharp! very very nice car!!'

Yes indeed.. the coolest colour possible.

The correct answer to the question however is.. I love "everything" about my Z. It's.. too perfect. :excited:

Looks, feel, handling, comfort and here in Europe this is almost an exotic as there just arent many of these around. It gets looks! Its a great car and I know Im lucky to have it!
