Talk me out of a Z06 please

JWillis72

I still love my 370Z but even the Z51 is a lot nicer car. My Z is supercharged and it took me 2 years to get the cooling right and a lot of money, boost on a track car is a pain in the butt to keep cool!

The entertainment screen go out on your z51 yet?

No it hasn't but I've only had it a few weeks. Has your steering lock gone out on your Z? What car doesn't have issues?

Nope but mines a 2013 and sure I'll allow one issue here or there as you say all have problems but being I've had the luxury to work on MB, vw/Audi, Acura, and Chevy throughout my career I can tell you first hand the Japanese are the only ones left that actually put honor into their product and care about their name. As you say you've only had you z51 a few weeks, might want to wait a couple years before you give it the superior to the 370z rating. Also when Japanese have an issue they tend to redesign/update the parts with issues (although Nissan csc is a bad example of that and poor choice on Nissan), the others just tend to replace until out of warranty and now it's your issue unless they get a class action law suite and forced to cover it under lifetime then all of a sudden their is a revision (vw/Audi 1.8 coils anyone?). Seen more blown engines and worn valve train with Chevy than anywhere else. However I would take a Chevy over vw/Audi their **** is just terrible. I'll just leave this, car hasn't had a good start.

Also this sums up a corvette perfectly, get some miles on them and all the squeaks, creaks and rattle come up. They just do not have the same level of build quality.
