Why does the 370z get so much disrespect...

The Z is a man's car. The FRS is so slow and boring.

I'm all for someone going and buying whatever it is 'that floats your boat', but IMHO the FRS/BRZ or whatever they're called, are simply pedestrian looking at best next to a Z. I guess some people must like them, (or can't afford a Z or want better gas mileage, or need pretend rear seats) but compared to a Z they are just plain, plain, plain.
I'm with some of the others here. You see them everywhere where I live, but I can go for days without seeing a 350 or 370, and I'm LOOKING for Zs everywhere I go.

when i was shopping for my next car i did drive and compare the z, the frs and the hyundai genesis. i'm sure the brz can be tossed in here for comparison. for me it was easy. i knew that if i had bought anything lesser than the z, which the fsr/brz is, then i wouldn't be happy or as happy. for me it then came to shopping for the right z. the brz/frs is a poor man's z, as the z is a poor man's porsche. 8 months later and i have not regretted the decision. yeah, the frs is a nice car, nicer than say a corolla, a camry, or a honda. but not nicer than a z.

Nothing that really makes me hate the FRS/BRZ, but nothing that floats my boat, would not buy. Again, different cars, for different tastes for different people....

Now, these cars being in eeeevery single car maganize, now that really pisses me off. So your telling me there are no other interesting builts being done that couldnt make the cover of your crappy magazine...? Come on, now!
