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

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.

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!

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.

ian, how does that work, please explain why.

you Ian, come onto this forum and critise the Z for, in your opinion, having a rough hard ride, which it does not, it is sports car Ian not luxury limo.

Ian I don't need to drive the 335 because I was talking about its ride, I was only talking about the Z's, so please read carefully. as to the mx5 and hookers, I am glad it doesn't turn their heads, what would they no about class. I presume hookers look at your 335 when you go trolling. lol

As a recent owner of a modified BMW M3, I find the 370z has a very tight ride with sharper turning and less body roll, not harsh. Yes there is road noise, when I don't want to hear it I turn up the stereo. Interestingly, my wife finds the 370z a much smoother ride than the M3.

I know a M3 is a different beast than the 335, but if you are making a choice based on performance, comfort and noise, I find the 370z more than suitable in that regard.

If I were a single guy in college at UCI, give me the 370Z roadster and let the posing begin.

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.
