Nissan 370Z Review: A Pretty Face, Lacking Pace
 

Nissan 370Z Review: A Pretty Face, Lacking Pace - Boldride.com

Short and to the point. Also, who has money for a GTR. But a gtr twin turbo motor in a in a Z. I'll take one...

The way that 'review' was written, I'm guessing that:

(a) the reviewer is 13.
(b) he never actually drove one

The review really doesn't say anything. I mean, really, go back and read it again.

Worst. Review. Ever. Negative points to the OP lol

That had to be the worst review...for any car I've read so far. The review lacks intelligence...This is just a Scion fan boy

I think the author nailed it when he wrote "then add lightness".

Ummm....

WTF is that supposed to mean? :icon14:

The author is an imbecile. It's amazing how people who have little grasp of writing can get published these days.

That was terrible. You can tell the writer is trying very hard to be clever.

onz: He is just trying to be clever, referencing Colin Chapman whose design philosophy was, "simplify, then add lightness." Recently Blipshift put this on a T-Shirt, and this child is likely referencing said T-Shirt.

Ah.

How are you digging your midnight blue????

Mine is growing on me.

I didn't know they put out an Orange Z in 2013. I thought it was Magma Red. But thanks for playing. :thumbsdown:

:icon17:

I like it a lot. Did you not like it when you bought yours? :icon17:

Colin Chapman? I know Jeremy Clarkson's said that in regards to Lotus
Simplify and add lightness


EDIT: I just remembered that Colin Chapman was the designer

I was in love with my 40th's color.

It's been like getting used to one's second wife.

Sometimes, it looks purple to me (in some light).

But....

I do love it.

Don't question me, fgt! :bowrofl:

It's less purple to me and more aquamarine in bright sun. Still :superghey:, which I like.

;-(

:p

Maybe I'll get a break from travelling and get to see mine soon.

That would be nice! It really is a nice color, with just the right amount of flake in it.

Yes -- it is pretty.

lol the Scion is perfect? bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha *gasp* ahahahaahahahaha

I'm still not exactly sure what his complaints are. He praises it for being a two seater, but then complains it's too expensive for two seats. It's got a lot of power, but it's not fast enough. And it's too heavy when the Z is fairly light by modern car standards. This reads like he had his mind made up before he drove the car and wrote his review accordingly.

Details on the other Z! :D

As Chuck said, this review is bi-polar. I'm surprised it wasn't compared against the Mustang and Camaro too- like every other mag (and forum member) tends to do.

This color minds me of the Z32. These colors are pretty are for the Z32, so this is the best I could find:

That review is about as bad as these. This guy is a moron-

This read like filler material; I mean, why bother reviewing the 370Z in 2013? Oh, because this site was founded in 2011. It's almost certainly just about filling a gap in content.

I guess ya gotta start somewhere, anyway.

I kept thinking as I read the review, Let's take it to the track. Buy a new two seater and let's race. What ever he spends his money on, then tell us exactly what our 370 is off pace against.

If the article were written more like: the 370Z specs vs several other comparable cars and here is why the other cars are better, I would be fine with the review.

Details on my 240z?

Built in May 1971.

Many, many mods.

I am in the process of building a new engine -- should be in the 220 - 230 horsepower range.

:iagree:

There was absolutely no substance.

Nice! Anymore pics? You have the two best Zs, and they're both blue!

sounds like the kid owns a civic/brz/frs and got his arse handed to him so he wanted a way to get back at nissan.

im not too sure about the "pretty face" or the wheels on the 2013's though...

I have more pics in my albums.

Its a stretch even calling that review

Anybody can blog these days huh....geez

I just got half way through the article and I had to stop for a break. The writing here is abysmal. Everything else aside (the car, the review, and the bi-polar complex) the article is arguably written by someone stuck at the back of the ESL class in middle school. The grammar is poor, the punctuation is wrong, and the syntax is redundant. I don't understand how it got past the editor...

I just want to know what highly scientific method he used to get a rating of "77%" lol

Do Americans really gargle with gas? :icon14:

:gtfo2:

"In a world filled with four-seat sportscars"

This is where I quit reading. The author doesn't know the difference between a sports car and a sports coupe.

Lamborghini you're doing it wrong... 4 seatbelts will allow you to charge double for a Gallardo...:gtfo2:

"Actually, this review is actually one of the many reviews that actually references the Scion FR-S that Scion is ACTUALLY making. And actually, it's a Nissan, and there's no way I'd actually spend $36,000 on an actual Nissan. I mean, actually, it's a Nissan. The GT-R, which actually costs $92,000 actual US dollars this actual model year actually outperforms the $130,000 Porsche 911 Turbo, but there's no way I'd actually buy a GT-R because, let's actually be realistic here, it is a Nissan that Nissan actually makes and that is too much money for an actual Nissan.

"Now actually, the Scion FR-S actually costs $24,000, making it actually a bit cheaper than this Nissan 370Z that actually costs $36,000. Now actually the Scion makes 200hp which is actually 60% of the amount of actual power that the 370Z is actually making and at $24,000, which is actually 66% of the Nissan 370Z's actual MSRP, I think that this is actually more worth the actual money that I will actually be spending on an actual sports car."

**** this stupid *** kid.

God bless the Internet. Any retard with a keyboard and a camera is now a "reviewer".
