Really? The one I drove was easily forgettable, I don't get the Lambo thing.

Price point, you won't find a better/fun car than the 370z. My shop just did wheels and suspension on one and not only are they so easy to work on (still, unlike lambos and gaymobiles) they're a great car. The speed different going from a Vq35 to the VQ37 is night and day, it gets up and moves.

^ of all the cars I've worked on, Audi designed all the ones I hate to work on.

Love the car, hate the engineering.

These guys dont know that the new 370z have the first auto rev-matching clutch, do you know how nice that would be to just focus on the driving. its not even a question on which car to get...370.

its new, and has more curb appeal than a g35. We all drive g35's so were are all bias. Hell i have a ton done to my g35, but would I jump at a chance to mod a new car, especially a 370z yes.

It is faster, better features, yes-no back seat, but its a great car the none the less. go for it.



yeah bro your right.

I would keep the G. Save up for the new G coupe to come out in a few years. The G35 coupe has killer looks. With some nice wheels, the G coupe turns so many heads. Mod to keep yourself busy with the car.

Z if you don't need the extra storage space that a G affords you and you don't need a back seat for a third person. I really like the interior improvements they made with the 370

How tall are you?? When i went shopping i drove a G37 coupe and with me in the front seat, comfortably, there was no room in the back seat for anybody to sit anyway; I'm 6'2. I originally went in with the intentions of getting a 2nd gen sedan, which i did leave with but even still there isnt much room in the back seat. If a back seat isnt too much of a concern its hard to beat the 370z. Especially if you're into some speed and a low 13 sec car right off the bat is a nice place to start. If you want a driving machine, go with a Z. If you are just looking for something to cruise around in with some occasional speed and handling to boot, G35 or G37.

My brother in law has a 370z and I must admit the thing is pretty damn fast. I'm not the biggest fan of what they've done to the exterior lighting when rejuvenating the chassis though.

I'd love to have the powertrain from the 370z or g37, but I can't get past the styling of the new 370z. I was at the local Nissan dealership having an adjustment made to my driver's side window and I spent twenty minutes or so trying to find some redeeming quality in the 370's exterior. Just couldn't like it.

Reminds me too much of a Datsun 280z from the late 1970's. That rear window section is just hideous.

Plus once again you're left with a car you can't mod much for more power, short of going forced induction. I think I'd be looking at a v-8 powered 2011 Mustang before the 370z...even if I did look like a redneck after buying it.
