Do you think it's a problem that the Z has no backseats?

MeetJoeAsian · 10-02-2009, 08:29 AM

When I had a 350Z, I was able to pick up 2 girls (they were friends), and they both hopped in and one sat on the other's lap...I guess it just depends on your taste. If you like big thick women, then you have to get a bigger car...the 2 girls I picked up were both about 5' tall and weighed probably around 90-100lbs....

Yea but the dealership told me it was supposed to be like that...I mean wtf? A sports car with only 2 seats? What's next..it's gonna be noisy too? Who would want a noisy sports car?! :-P

Yeah in your case it may be, sounds as if the G coupe is for you and your lifestyle. I have my Z and I kept my 03 Max SE for when I need space, which I love driving as well. My girl has G Sedan, we are VQ junkies.......

I've always had a Vette, ZX, or even an ascMcLaren which was a 2 seater mustang back in the 80's. So it was always my choice to have a sports car and something else older with more seats to drive when needed.

When Nissan stopped making 300ZXs. I needed to my trade my 100,000 mile 92 300ZX in on a new car so I thought I'd try a new Maxima and go with one car. It wasn't bad but when it was time to trade that in Nissan was back with the 350z so I'm back with my old plan for good as long as Nissan keeps making Z's. There is an up close personal feeling to a two seater that you just can't duplicate.

This a general statement and I'm not counting the ugly 4 seater ZX's (never liked um) and Porsche 911's with their baby jump seats (i'd be crazy not to consider this a sports car)

I like the response if you're asking you need the G.

G37Sam · 10-02-2009, 06:50 PM

Well here's the thing, I do have 4 seats but only use them when I feel like, otherwise I throw the "my car will rub excuse" or simply the more straight forward one "get the fck in your own car"

If you have kids however and need to use the back seats, that's a different story, maybe you should look into a sedan for more convinience.

No offense to the OP, and I usually don't make posts like this, but this seems like a useless thread to me. The Z is what it is, a TWO seat sports car. You know that going in. You should also know whether you need a back seat or not. If you don't, and want a sports car, buy a 2 seat sports car, if you do, get a 2 door sport sedan with a back seat.

I just ate my family, that way I could remove the passenger seat to save weight.

You could always go with the ever-popular "tie 'em to the hood" but I suppose with the kicking and screaming you'd risk the paint job.
