What did you drive before your 370z?

Benibiker · 08-30-2009, 09:40 PM

When I get my 370z it'll be my current Mini Cooper S...

Cloggerdude · 08-30-2009, 09:56 PM

I've had pretty much all Honda cars before my 370z. The last few were:

1997 Honda Accord
1998 Acura CL
2000 Honda Prelude
2000 S2000

I traded the S2000 in on my new Chicane Yellow 370Z just yesterday. I loved driving my S2K, but it made a pretty abysmal daily driver. The 370Z is just so much smoother, both in terms of ride quality and engine noise. The extra power doesn't hurt either...

I'm loving my new Z so far, and I'm sure the love affair will continue for a good while.

I've had lots of old muscle in the past. 1972 Cutlass Hurst-Olds, 1979 Z28, 1964 Chevellle SS. It was time to get a modern ride that i didn't have to wrench on. It's more fun when you are wrenching because you WANT to. Besides, 300+Hp with the air blowing cold is nice. So, I sold my 2008 Tacoma Quad-cab and bought my 370Z.

phelan · 08-31-2009, 04:11 PM

could've sworn there was one of these already?

anyway:
1972 Range Rover (electronics system went berserk)
1999 Range Rover 4.0 SE (supercharged it, then sold to neighbor for next car)
2003 Audi A4 1.8T (light mods)

Still have the Audi for a daily driver. I'll get rid of it when the new Toyobaru is released

No disrespect intended to the owner so hopefully he will answer.

As for me I always wanted one. Until I was able to drive it around town and canyons for over an hour. The car felt like a bus. I felt as if I was in a big chunk of metal; it had no soul! In summary if a Z and the bimmer were priced the same I still would pick the Z.
