OMG DID I read that right?

:icon18:

Never heard that before, thanks I'm going to start using it!

:tiphat: Not at all - delighted to be of assistance, old boy. I'm sure you have interesting american words and phrases that I'd benefit from in a similar manner!

I hate you... there i said it.... :bowrofl: :roflpuke2: :inoutroflpuke:

ok

370z pisses on the 350z
:D
Now u can hate me.

yea, since the "non-sports" handle like a towncar. :rolleyes:


yea, lets all bow down to the "sports package". :rolleyes:

No way any 350 handles better than a 370. No way, no how. Different setup, you have more experience in the 350, you admit you've never even tracked the 370. With a few miles of 370 on the track, you'd have a completely different opinion. :argue:

Sorry, mate, I disagree on both points. :tiphat: No offense, mate.

That's a very, very intelligent comparison - I have the utmost respect for you. You clearly take a great deal of care before you post a reply, ensuring that only the most salient and precise facts are presented. You are a god among posters. I would be most humble if you would spare the time to elucidate*.











*look it up, tosser

I owned a 350z for 6 years...have had the 370 since march.

Chubbs my first impression on the high speed handleing was spot on with yours. It wasn't as confidence inspiring...i knew the 370z handled better...but it was not confidence inspiring..i couldn't comfortably find the cars limits on the street.

Then i had my track day...WOW...the car did a hell (i don't use that word lightly) of a lot better than the 350z....i was going FLAT out in places where i lifted with the 350z.....my mind was saying "NO....NO...NO!" and the Z was saying "GO!..GO!...GO!". I found the car to be superior to the 350z in every aspect trackwise.

Now that i know the car...street driving is more fun..and now i know how to drive my car fast...but it feels totally different.

Steve Millen drove both the 350Z NISMO and a 370Z NISMO this past week at ZCON. He himself said the 350Z NISMO was a better track car (as in being more hard core) vs the 370z that isn't all that into the suspension, etc like the 350z was.

And Steve Millen is a professional race car driver. Enough said.

Facts are facts sir. You can't deny that. All the tests for the NISMO Z 370z have been negative towards it's handling.

Sorry to just elbow into this thread. But about the whole Nismo aspect.. I have to agree that the 370z Nismo IMO seems to be somewhat of a failure vs the 350z nismo AND 370z with sports package. The extra money that is spent on the nismo could pay for engine bolt ons and an upgraded suspension that would make the car far superior to the 350z nismo and 370z nismo.

Well, for one, aftermarket suspension isn't tuned. It might make it feel like it handles better, but my STOCK NISMO suspension still spanks any 350z with aftermarket suspension, coil overs, race tires, etc. It's all in the tuning. So to say a aftermarket suspension is superior is false.

Man I've taken 4 test drives in the Z just to make sure this is the car I wanted to own.
This Z is by far one of the best affordable sports cars of all time.
The interior is nice. To mock its interior while owning a 350z is a joke in itself. Lol
The 370z has superior handling to almost any sub $60k car out there.
And y is the Z so expensive in europe? Do u guys pay more for porsches or are Z's and porsche on the same level?

Plus the NISMO parts are covered and won't land you into the "Warranty Voided" fight that you may or may not win, 2 years from now.

Totally agree

And big update at the Tsukuba track fastest lap time for the 370z nismo 1:06.643.faster than the 350z nismo and the stock 370z.
Tsukuba lap records - FastestLaps.com:happydance:

For that much more HP, that isn't all that much of a difference. The handling of the 350Z NISMO obviously is better, but the power is what helped keep the 370z ahead by a hair.

59. Nissan Nismo 370Z 1:06.643 112 ´09 355 / 1500 Best Motoring
60. Nissan Nismo 350Z 1:06.663 112 ´08 313 / 1610 best motoring
61. Nissan 370Z 1:06.669 112 ´09 337 / 1525 Best Motoring

Yea but.. I'm talking about the 370z nismo. I kind of feel there is a difference between the relationships when comparing 350z and 350z nismo and 370z and the 370z nismo.

Interesting observation about life cycles.

It goes this way: 350Z --> G37 --> FX --> EX --> 370Z

IOW, after you've sampled the creampuffs, the bully monsters, and the "pony" bully... you'll be back around.

In our case, we skipped the EX35 because no East Coast dealers had the model in RWD only. (And we tried, for 5-6 months.) Eventually came to realize that we didn't need a Mustang-sized back seat, even... got the 3rd car, a Honda Element, to give us carryspace and AWD.

I just went through two Google pages and could only find people pissing their pants on how good the 370Niz is vs the 350Niz. So "all the tests" is going to require one hell of a lot of searching for some support..........................:stirthepot:

So please find a few links....and I'll provide ten for every one you find that support my statement! :tup:

It's called VAT (Value-Added-Tax). It's how Euros pay for theie healthcare :rolleyes:

They are on this site. It has been posted many times. C&D, M&T, etc all said the handling is worse. The Slalom is less than the NIZMO 350Z, and less than the standard 370z. So do some research for a change. So stop being a noob and search.

Looks like the 370Z handles quite well.

Nissan 350Z (308bhp) vs Nissan 370Z - FastestLaps.com

Wow there was absolutely no need to bring up this thread considering the same discussion is going on in another thread on the same page. This thread was even referenced. You even posted the same thing on the new thread....

Then why are you posting? Trying to up your post count?

I'm at least posting something of relevence.

Some of you guys need to chill. Just take a breather

Wait... who cares?

350Z is junk complete junk to the 370Z...Well i have a nismo with coils n no way in heck a 350 will touch it...Im sorry but the regular 370 has a crap load of body roll when i drove one i didnt like it at all n I wasnt comfortable at high speeds either...But wen my nismo was stock it barely had any body roll...So iono maybe u should just get a nismo wit coils problem solved lol..

I'm going to agree. And those of you who are saying the 350 was a POS, an awful excuse for a car ect, ect, ect. Need to pull your heads out of you arses.

:iagree: I loved my 350, were it not for the oil consumption, I'd probably still be driving it. Both are great cars!

I like cheeze fries.

:icon18: noob :gtfo2:

:iagree:

Do you not realize its a driver who makes the car? I GUARANTEE I will CRUSH you on a course with a 350z. Badly.


You are a complete IDIOT.

If 350Z vs. 370Z is this bad, I can only imagine what Evo IX vs. Evo X arguments are like. I'm sure people actually fight over that one.

small wars involving field artillery sometimes occur.

:tup: How long does it take to train someone to really drive a sleeper and whip someone in what they think is a superior car? lol

I agree that I could drive the pants off my Z and put some 370 drivers to shame who think their car is the best thing on 4 wheels. I don't get what gives with the competition, though. It's a Nissan. I like them all. There's a lot of great history with the Datsun/Nissan lineage. I'll give a :tup: to anyone in a Z. Just driving the car and owning a piece of automotive history is enough to put a smile on my face. I couldn't care less if another Z is better than mine.

One can only imagine.
