Also, what's with the reverse gear? You have to push the gear shifter DOWN, then right and back. What the shit?
I'm just not a fan of them much anymore... and the sound gets old. I'm tired of them hearing them. Same with the G35. Although, I think the Z would be a much more attractive car if they put the G35 coupe rearend on the Z.
I don't like those big ol wrap around tail lights.
Oh, and I didn't find the seats all that comfortable. But that's just me.
I'm a big Z enthusiast as some of you all know, but the biggest thing that turns me off about the 350z is the drivers. They buy the car without caring of the heritage or history of the Z. They don't even pay any attention to you on the road, you try to give them a thumbs up and they just look at you funny. Or they don't look at you at all. Even at the Z car shows, all the 350z people park with the 350z people and pretty much hang out with the 350z people.
Which is why I took great pride in my old 240z being able to out run most of them. That go their attention.

uggh I"m with you 100% on this one man, I've seen three on the highway, and when I got to talk to one of them, he asked me what I was driving, after I know he'd seen my rear bumper which blatenly said "300zx turbo" on the back of it... after I told him he kinda looked smugged and goes ohh, aren't those the slower models... I swear, if I had my boost turned up to 8 or 9 PSI, I would've gunned it right there. The other two refused to give me a thumbs up or even a nod...
