VERY CONFLICTED: 07'-08' 335i coupe vs New 370z

ianthegreat

As a DD or 1/4 mile car - 335i

As a track car - 370z

I guess here the 370 could be rationalized as a better DD, but in all honesty.. the bitch is LOUD.

If I were you I would get the 370z, cheaper to maintain and performance is close.

What is it with all these people who can't handle a bit of decibels. The Z is a sports car not a bloody Lincoln. When you drive a sports car you want to feel it. I am sure a Ferrari or lambo etc are not Lexus like either. you are also paying for the raw, non clinical feel of the Z. Why would you want to ber driving a sports car that sounds and feels like a Camry, apparently there are lot of girly men here.

ianthegreat

Oh you feel it... every line, crack, or peice of gum stuck on the road.

nicknick

oh please, I have driven a 370z, it was an exhilerating drive. This is the kind of car you look forward to driving due to the great sensations it gives you. This car has personality and a charming character, something I imagine may be missing from a sterile and clinical snoozemobile that is the 335. I have read on the BMW forums that these cars have had a fair share of issues associated with them and BMW being BMW of course attended to them without a fuss in order not to tarnish its well marketed name and risk alienating the ******* who must have a BMW to show their image conscious friends. Ha!

If I want an exhilerating experience, something I look forward to driving, and gives me great sensations.. I'll call my girlfriend.

Unfortunately, for you.. an mx5 wouldn't turn a 2 cent hookers head. You own neither car so I find it pointless arguing this.

To keep this on topic, and to clarify my original post (apparently it was unclear), I think the op should purchase a 370z.

nicknick

You are a typical BMW wanker that values image over substance.

BTW... Have you seen reviews on the mx5, I have not read one bad one, so gtfo!

ianthegreat

I think this forum agrees with me in calling you.. the wanker.

Your opinion maybe somewhat valid had you driven both cars (like I have), but you have not. So your opinion is about as useless as your insults.

My '98 Mustang GT Convertible was far worse, and the soft top made it very wind-noisy too. The Z feels like I'm floating on a cloud in comparison.

Dear NickNick,

Have you heard the engine in the Nissan?

Driving your Mazda too many times must have caused your ears to malfunction. They make some of the most uninspiring engines ever to grace the earth, their soundtrack is between irritating and just intrusive. Maybe you should use the raw Z as your vibrator, seeing as you are so stuck up and rude toward opinion other than yours.

nicknick

Read my earleir posts and you will see not only have i heard the z engine i have driven it. this getting tiring, look your bm's are great now go away.

Funny coming from a miata driver.

molamann

First post and you're dissing a man's car?

RatedZ

I wonder if that's his "F430 Spider" in his avatar. It looks like a 10 year old Honda Civic Si to me.

No reason to be dissing on peoples' rides now.

An Si driver poking fun at a Miata driver in a 370Z forum? Good times lol.

OP: I had a feeling you'd be more comfortable with something new rather than pre-owned. I'm the same way, almost to a fault.

nicknick

don't know what it is like in USA but here in Aus, mostly men drive mx5's and curiosly I have noticed a large chunk of women driving cars like z4 and slk's etc. I guess the mx5 is a little too raw. BTW i am married. mx5 is a girls car=myth, go drive a new one and see. anyway hope you could see past your childish observation and understand what I was getting at. Saving to buy a Zed
