Love the outside, hate the interior. It's a damn good and speedly little sports car and eats up twisties like a dream, but I've heard it is loud loud loud on the inside, and not the good kind of loud.

Also, gotta love that SynchroRev system

It's already been out for a while and I don't see too many

there are MANY e9xs out... esp 328s

and even if the 370Z gets common, the Nismo won't
Its limited production anyways...

And regarding the modding, the Nismo, new, is about 40k out the door
about 5k cheaper than the 335i coupe

You can always make a NA engine FI...

If you drop about 10k in the Z, you'll be killing everyone...

isn't the stock 0-60 about 4.6?
So it's plenty fast...

it's just that it's only got 2 seats and not the best DD


But I'll definitely get one (or a lotus or a boxster depending on my income) as my weekend car in the future

i drive a 135 though lol

the 1 is a lot more rare with greater initial modding potential plus its 5k cheaper than the nismo.

I had a 350Z before my 335i... it was amazing, but I'm even more blown away by my 335i, that I'd probably never go back.

damn nice

i don't remember my car's invoice, but the msrp was $60,775, excluding any tax or financing fees.
Then again, I have never bought a car at MSRP or even close to it lol
I wonder what my invoice was...

The 350z is crap compared to the 335i. 370 is a monstrous improvement over the 350. Try one out some time It's pretty impressive. But again, comparing a Z to a 3-series is apples to oranges.

Hey why don't you relax? We're comparing the 370z to the 1'er.
Maybe I should accuse you of being a 370z hater for calling it disgusting?

The looks of a car are part of the equation when people purchase vehicles, especially their weekend queens. The 1'er is one of the ugliest cars in recent memory, I think that should be a consideration when cross-shopping it and other cars.

When it comes down to it, we both have our opinions and I didn't jump on yours when you said the 370z was ugly. Maybe we're both right, except your opinion doesn't have a Pulitzer Prize winning writer behind it, but whatever.
