Correct. One of the "cars that handle like crap" according to some 370Z owners, lol!

I had the stock potenzas and then Pilot Super Sport. My z06 was lighter and far more responsive suspension wise, and never skittered about. As to driver error...there are only so many ways to drive...

The responsiveness and adhesion and weighting was great. My sole complaint is how bouncy it was and how it would skitter sideways in corners even at sedate speeds if you went over expansion joints...

The 370z was nice inside, but the grindy transmission and oversprung and underdamped suspension made it something I never really loved. My cx5t has an amazing suspension and the "smartest" slushbox...

Yup, and at 300ft or so, paving it would cost as much as a lightly used 370z, taking drainage, grade, etc. Into consideration . So awd it is, for now.

That's how I felt about my 370Z's handling. It was a joke. Never owned a vehicle set up so poorly before, and I didn't like it enough to replace the suspension, which is part of why it got sold for a...

I could, but it would be a "running start" type deal probably. My drive-way is a 27-30% grade. Loose gravel. If you don't have AWD, I don't let people come down it. It keeps people out, too. They see...

Meh. I enjoy my CX5 more, actually. The terrible suspension and grinding transmission really ruined the 370Z experience for me. Torque in my CX5 is nice to have, too. Mainly though, I like how it...

My cx5 turbo is pretty fun. More sorted suspension than my Z was, way more torque, but less top end and not as fast of course, 0-60 taking a bit over 6 seconds. However, i can't own a Z where I live,...

I used to be anti-SUV, but it became what I had to have to get to and from home/work. It's worth the trade-off, to me. I want to live where I don't have to see or hear people? It took an SUV....

Agreed 100%, but I always found manual more engaging, and since I don't make a living from racing, I'd prefer a manual in a sports car, 1/2 second slower or not.

Sadly, I think politics will play a huge role in the form of subsidies for buyers and manufacturers, as well as manipulation of petrol expenses.

I hated it. My CX5 has a much better auto than the Z. I drove the Z, and it's super upshift happy. Floor it at say, 40mph, it takes off, lift, floor it again, and it's going to get caught mid-upshift...

I'd love one if I could snag a used but reliable one for $5-10K. Especially if fuel costs skyrocket.
