370Z Bloopers

winnre · 11-19-2013, 10:47 PM

I have had my Z for almost a week now and I am finding a few bloopers in the build process. This is not only my car, but any of them. I wonder if anyone else has found some bloopers too. Maybe Nissan will fix these in the future and give us freebies.

If you have any, reply and add them with the next number in the list (so whoever posts after this will start with 3.)

1. Unable to see the mileage while driving due to the location of the right paddle shifter.

2. When I change the A/C temperature or fan speed the symbols pop up on the bottom of the nav display to show my changes as I make them. However the fan speed knob on the left is displayed on the right side of the display and the temperature knob on the right is displayed on the left side of the display. It would have been nicer the left knob controlled the symbol on the left and the right knob controlled the symbol on the right.

3. You can correct your phone via Bluetooth to make calls, but cannot use Bluetooth for music.

I think that's trying to get you to opt for the NAV package as that allows bluetooth streaming.

<-- Wishes he would have known that before getting no nav.

I have nav and bluetooth streaming. You need to connect the phone as a music player to get the tunes to play. Kinda sucks. I wanted to play Pandora but still want my phone.

And you can only have one active at a time, so no love in having two phones in the car at once.

4. Nissan accidentally put Titan mirrors on the Z. Still hasn't been fixed!

5. Forgot to add a digital speedo.

6. Right side mirror does not show blind spot, it needs to be able to move outward more.

7. No analog fuel guage.
8. Fuel tank is the worst design ever.
9. TPMS goes off, doesn't tell which tire, or at least which side!
10. No USB port standard on non-touring/NAV models.

11. The heated seats have two settings. Too much and more.

One minute and I am done.

12. rear seats not very comfy.

Tick64 · 11-20-2013, 09:20 PM

13. Wheels look so good they attract thieves.

14. Exhaust tone is pathetic. The 350z is much better for a stock exhaust.

Riptide67 · 11-20-2013, 10:46 PM

TPMS was better on 350 and so was the digital speedometer.

15. Driving it gives me a boner
