I just bought my 8th Z car, a 2014 Touring Sport in PW. Since the 350 Z came back, I had been looking at the occasional Z's on the dearler's showroom floor every time my wife would pick up a new Murano, finally got one 3 years ago, a 2011. I started eary with a '70 240Z, a 260Z, a couple of 280's, and a couple of 280ZX's, the most recent of which was a 280ZX Turbo. Then...kids and our first house happened, and Nissan kind of lost me when the Z concept morphed into a bloated luxo-cruiser with the 300s. Now...kids are gone, house is paid for. This being Minnesota, the Z is a 6-months-of-the-year vehicle (if that), and my daily driver has to be a 4wd truck for the snow/ice and the horse/boat/snowmobile/etc trailers that are a mandatory part of living in northern Minnesota. The 370 Z is a great sports car, every bit as much fun as I remember my 240 Z was 45 years ago. Congratulations.

Interestingly, that turbo made the 280ZX Turbo one of the fastest imports in the US back then. They added the turbo because the thing was becoming fatter and emission-laden to the point where the normally-aspirated 280ZX was slower than the 240Z. As fast as I remember my 280ZX Turbo being, 0-60 was like 7.1 seconds according to Car & Driver and my recollection. My 370Z does that in 4.5 seconds according to my Dynolicious app, 4.8 seconds according to Car & Driver, and 5 seconds according to Edmunds.

Now I have decided to return to the Z family. I am buying a used 20,000 miles, 2011 Nismo with Stillen CAI and top speed pro one exhaust. Has a few other upgrades as well and an extended warranty which is nice I think.
It's been a long journey of m3's', Z06, Cayman to name a few.
I'm excited to get back in the Z and have some fun again. First thing I am doing is oil cooler to keep is cool on the track.
This forum has been fantastic and I appreciate all the work people put in their posts
Hopefully I can add some value
welcome back fella
