the new z is cool looking, but I sure as hell do not wanna see service engine light coming on, instrument panel vibrating, rotten egg smell coming from the exhaust within the first 5,000miles as I've experienced with their other nissan lineup (2001 G20). so for me, no more nissan. honda, toyota, bmw are my tickets. :finger: :finger: :finger:

I don't like the new Z too much...it just doesn't remind me of the older ones. I might change my mind w/out that orange paint, though.

Oh, yeah, another car with centered exhaust tips is the C5.

Thumbs up Promised 3000

I just called my Nissan "store" (they leased me a 2000 Maxima) and gave a salesman a hard time about the Z. He admitted that they plan on having Z's in the showroom on June 2002. Price will remain the same ($30K for the coupe and about $34K for the convertible option), the horsepower promised to be 300. If that's true, I will kiss my 1 month-old Audi TT quattro coupe 225 good-bye along with the Maxima and hit the road with the Z. I just hope they will make it black :smoker2:

i must say the Z looks much much better in navy blue. But lookswise, I'd take an RSX over the Z. The overall shape is the same (and in pictures the RSX doesn't look to great), but in real life the RSX's body just flows and looks fast. Which is what cars ARE about these days. Why not? Of course, it has to be fast too, but not too fast.

PUHLEEEEEEEEEZ!

The RSX doesn't compare to the 350Z... it's not even in the same class of car!

I pulled up next to a RSX the other day in my '97 Talon and I felt like I was driving a Ferarri. The tall, narrow stance of the RSX doesn't say "fast" :bandit:... it says "Civic-derivative." It says "I'm a soccer mom, but I'm too cool to drive a minivan."

Sorry for the :flamer: but I'm really piss'd at Acura for disappointing me with such a boring reply to something so anxiously anticipated.

Besides... 0-60

RSX: high-6s
350Z: low-5s

My money's going for an upgrade... and it's name is Z!

Haha, thats some funny stuff... (and good use of smilies)

And to add to that, the new Z is RWD, has a boatload more torque, and seats only 2. Oh and another thing--I'm glad that Nissan choses to keep their Z car under the Nissan name rather than putting it into Infiniti. I still don't get why the RSX is stuck in the Acura division anyway. It doesn't have anything to do with luxury or exclusivity. Damn, the things they do these days to sell more cars...
