Seriously d00d qualify your statement. Fine you don't like them, you're entitled to your opinion, but what don't you like?

I'm not a fan of most of the vehicles from Japan, but the 350z is one of the BIG exceptions. The 350z is one of my favourite cars because its aggressive style up front, and smooth sleek lines throughout. 287 HP and a smartly designed interior the car is perfect in every way for me. Also someone posted an article before about a supercharged 350z and the hp it was putting down was well over 300 hp.

Really d00d, what don't you like about it?

The 350Z looks increadable in my opinion and I love almost everything about the car, well... except for the door handles but still :hitit: especially with the track pack.

I think he's refering to all the import mags has 350z on the cover. I personally are sick of seeing them along with G35. They are as common as Civics in town.

And they gotta tone done the weight a little. Keep it under 3000lbs would be nice. (Actually, if they can knock 240lb of the front and down to 3000lbs, the 350Z will achieve 50/50 weight distro as well)

Every new car that breaks new ground is going to get a lot of camera time with the magazines. If people want the car really badly, chances are they'll get more readers reading their magazine if they put a picture of that car on the cover.

The 350z imo is the best sports car to come out Japan that I know about. Before that every magazine out there had the SRT-4 and before that something else.

Personally, i have grown tired of the 350. Suer they look good, but it is almost like any greaseball with a bit of money went out and bought one. To me it has turned into a bit of a "Choch" car.
I would go for the G35 over the 350 any day.....

I found G35 styling to be bland. It's fine in Calgary, still quite unique. But in Vancouver, there're about 4 G35 coupe in every city block.

That's my thoughts exactly - nice car, but you wouldn't know it from the outside. In fact its one of my least favourite designs from Nissan - I think the beaver tooth cars look better (maxima/altima/sentra/quest). The G35 styling makes me think it should be wearing a toyota badge. It looks like a corolla with celica headlights:

Initially I wasn't overly fond of the styling but must admit it's growing on me. I wish Nissan included it with a turbo though. I've noticed tons of them sitting on dealerhip lots, something I never saw with the 300ZX which seemed much more rare. Winter probably has something to do with it.

The 300ZX was also like 20 grand more than a 350Z, and IMO vastly overpriced, which lead to poor sales and a rare car.

Maybe because they are the best bang for your buck? You can get them with HIDs and they are only like $24k loaded or something right?

Yeah a buddy of mine just traded in a year old Saturn Ion (at a $5000 loss :eek: ) for a Mazda 3. The loss hurt but he has a car that he actually likes now. The 3 is a great value and the styling is very good too :)

I dont think you can get them with HIDs in Canada, only in the States. It's a great little car really, I dont see too many around though, must be out at the wrong times.

this whole "drifting" trend is starting to bother me... what ever happened to having a tuned suspension that holds the road?
