Seems clear that we like what we like, and that some statistical superiority of another car in some car magazine doesn't sway us much. Seems much like the subjectivity in deciding who is the most beautiful or sexiest movie actress or Playboy Playmate. Each to his own.

... and we do have our own - the Z, from the 240 to the 370, it has always been a different kinda sports car. You can have your Mustangs, Camaros, Corvettes, and so on, but there is something different to owning a Z. I've had two so far, a 300ZX Twin Turbo, and my current 370. My girlfriend enjoyed riding in my 300ZX better than any other car, especially on long trips. She said the seats were very comfortable. We find the 370 the same as well. New Orleans to Houston and back about 6 hours each way almost non-stop except for potty breaks and lunch when we got hungry, but we did NOT have to stop to "stretch our legs" because we were cramped. Other looong trips: New Orleans to Etowah, TN to run the Cherahola, The Dragon and the Devil's Triangle the next day, then on to Nashville, then tour Nashville, attend ZATTACK2012, then Drive back to New Orleans, and no "car fatigue" was experienced by either us or another couple in their 370.
Marvelous car - and we Each have our Own Z to appreciate. Thanks Datsun/Nissan, Thanks Mr Katayama
