Default What do you love about your 370Z?

I have had my '09 Chicane Yellow, 370Z Touring now for just a couple of days and I can honestly say that it is the most beautiful car I have ever owned. I am 58 years old and have had many nice cars but this tops the list. So my question out to you all is to name some things you absolutely love about your 370Z. I'll start it off with mine. I love the power and acceleration you feel going through the gears (M/T), the looks of the 370Z even more than the 350Z, Chicane Yellow, the interior especially the color of the guage numbers and needles, and the Bose stereo. Care to add yours?

It's great fun to drive, it takes a mean picture, it starts conversations.

It is a well-built machine that can go from daily driver to track slut for a few thousand dollars.

my first sports car. bought it when i was 21, am 23 now. i dont necessarily have to drive it in order to enjoy it... for me, its the thought, the idea, the image, the thrill, the sight. the cruise. the THE....... shucks...... the whole concept of the damn thing!

as compared to all other sports cars (in the Z's price range.)

I love how driver-centric the car is. I think this one trait keeps the love alive.

Being 52 , I have had many cars, including the 350Z.

The interior of the 370Z Touring model is great.

The exterior of the 370Z Sport is great. It is much better than the 350Z.

These cars are not like other cars . You do not see that many on the road which makes them special.

The bang for your buck...I can afford a more expensive car, but I hate the costs of a Benz or BMW, or 911 when you need brakes, oil changes, ect... Just too much money for not that much more fun. The 370Z offers value..

I really liked the exterior of the 370 before I ever looked at them on the lot. Once at the dealer, I fell in love with the cockpit, especially now that the silver fuel gauge is blacked out.
While not the fastest or most powerful of cars, the handling is very good & it makes the car a lot of fun to drive.

I have owned at least one version of every Z model (except the 350) and still have one of my 240Z's. What I love about the 370 is that it retains the "Z-ness", quirks and all, and is the most capable version to date. It is almost as much fun to drive as the 240, but my definition of "fun" is a bit different than most folks.

It puts me back to that 280Z feeling. It is wonderful.

I love everything about the car, fun to drive, looks, interior, brakes, handling,... One of the top things for me is the SRV specially in Los Angles traffic. I have had the car a few weeks now not even a month and I fall in love with it more and more daily I have had a few cars like this one 2 door sport cars my BMW 335i was a lot faster I'll admit to that however, this car is much more fun to drive and enjoy.
