observation from a 300ZX Driver
I've been driving my 300ZX for about 8 years and recently purchased the 350Z.
Here are some observation.
1. Within 24 hours women were leaving business cards on my windshield. (its a chick magnet...why I don't know)
2. The Bose on my 93' 300ZX sounds better than the new 350Z Bose.
3. The ride in my 300ZX is more smooth and comfortable than the 350Z.
4. Every TangGT wants to race me. (inferiority complex I guess)
5. There is less room in the 350Z than the 300ZX.
6. If you are over 6'2" you will be miserable driving this car.
7. The 350Z gets noticed.
8. I purchased the Touring with every option available...including 100K mile extended warranty. My previous experience with Zs tells me I'll be using it within 4years.
9. The 350Z grips better than any car I have driven. The Vehicle Dynamic Control makes a big difference.
10. It is easier to enter and exit the 350 over a Corvette.
11. The 350Z isn't a drag strip racer and I knew that when I purchased it.
12. At a total OTD price of $41K I still enjoy the car. I measure its value by quality of engine design, agility, nimbleness, asthetics, Safety features, and grunt. All of which the 350Z has.
This car was designed for drivers that enjoy driving over 1/4 mile bursts.
