Should I buy the 2011 Nissan 370z or wait for the 2012 370z?

Pretty sad that even if I pull little G's with quarter tank of gas that I would get fuel starvation. I mean, it's still a quarter tank of gas. If this was a case, might as well put a 14 gallon gas tank instead of a stupidly large 19 gallon gas tank.
What do you mean by fuel starvation? is it because of the low MPG for 370z?

When talking about fuel starvation most people are referring to a few cases where when the 370z gas tank gets down to about a quarter of a tank it has issues with the fuel pump being able to get the last few gallons of fuel to the engine due to the design of the fuel tank. Having said that the suggestion of a 14 gallon tank wouldnt make any difference cause then you would be complaining about having to fill up on gas more often, most people who browse these forums know very well about the fuel starvation issue so it shouldnt be a surprise to anyone.
