most people in my area have no clue that I drive a Nissan, a lot says its the new Porsche! Never corrected them until they see the Nissan badge.

Ya dude! even the commercials don't show them. I understand its not their bread and butter...but even LEXUS is showing their LFA and now F's in commercial when they show their line up....

well, they are trying to compete with the flashy douches... you know them particular euro folk type..

kenchan · 01-15-2015, 04:38 PM

real 370z folks dont need that glamour. we are car guys, not flashy folks.

TerribleONE · 01-15-2015, 04:44 PM

Dude you don't even have a Z... its photo shopped.

Read T · 01-15-2015, 04:49 PM

Most car comparisons are a fairly new car. The 370Z is 6 years old and due for replacement.

DOOMMONKEY777 · 01-15-2015, 06:11 PM

What is this Altima, Sentra u speaking of???

New type of Porsche?

mishuko · 01-15-2015, 07:41 PM

they need to put a VQ37 into a micra... like what the juke-r was... cept the they can call it MICRAZ

brucelidat · 01-15-2015, 09:37 PM

It gets no press because it's an old car that hasn't really been updated. There will be plenty of press for the new one when it comes out.

Zoren 370 · 01-15-2015, 09:46 PM

Yes is because its already a 5 year old car.

But Im impressed how the BrZ/scion twin brought the house down in every car magazine even landed a spot on the top motor-trend drag race.

That car had no business being in that race. I thought motor trend insulted them just to prove on how slow they really are.

Yup....7 years in with essentially the same car. Can't get them excited. People want to read about the new models arriving.

That and think of the non enthusiast. Unless he just likes the 370z he can find alot of value for space/performance with say a WRX STI. Look at the 4's with Turbos that have pretty decent specs for what they charge for.

WTF mang... it's a f-king glorified sentra for poor people.

I guess you can't do that commercial with actual car enthusiasts. Can you imagine someone who has ever driven full speed on a track riding in a stock Altima and thinking it was a real race car?

Nope! lol

We traded a 2000 Sentra with 48K miles on it for the Z in 2011. Pretty nice upgrade if you ask me
