350Z US sales per year...

2002 13,253
2003 36,728
2004 30,690
2005 27,278
2006 24,635
2007 18,957
2008 10,337

As you can see, in it's heyday the 350Z sold about 3X as many cars as the 370Z ever has. This is due to a lot of factors but mainly the recession hitting. The recession of 2001 was ending when the 350Z came out so slaes were booming again and sports cars were hot. I think I've heard a figure of somewhere around 250,000 world wide sales total for the 350Z.

I left for Fort Benning Ga. last Thursday to see my son graduate from his A.I.T. and traveled through 3 states to and from and I seen 3 350Z's 1 other 370Z and 2 300ZX's

I DID see about 500 BMW's 300 Camaro's and 250 Mazda RX 8's

So like Zoren 370 stated and I quote : " I find pride knowing that owning a Z only caters to select few. "

Couldn't agree more.

Actually it's more like the opposite. Poor sales numbers does not equal exclusivity by any means. It's not like the Z is some rare exclusive supercar or something. I'm not hating on the Z, I have one and I love it. It's just the truth.
