IF I am dissapointed with them, I will wear them out and when they are dead, look elsewhere.
I have a ton of positive things to say about my 370Z. I still own it, yes?
However , when I am ready to trade this car in, I will be leaving Nissan unless certain things change. I will probably go over to BMW or Porsche. I have experienced American sports cars, and found the over-all experience very lacking. I have experienced Japanese sports cars, at least a little, with this 370Z, and I would like to sample what Europe brings to the table, and Mercedes does not offer manuals in America that I know of.
Right now, as it sits today, I cannot think of another new car I would rather have for the cost of my 370Z or less. Yes it has foibles, but its strong points (Style, interior, qa/qc, what performance it does have, affordability for what you get) outweigh its negatives (clunky transmission, bad weight distribution, horrible rebound control, windshield that cracks if you look at it hard).

X2 and that is Ironic coming from a chevy owner,
yes have heard good reviews on PSS as well. And agreed with the last paragraph the Zs have their faults as any car does, but I feel its strong points are a good enough reason to own and drive one...or like you said why else would we be in one?
As far as future choice goes I will almost 95% stick with JDM, I am loyal to em, no change there and that was from day one when I got my altima before my Z. The Nissan 370z is a good car that is both valuable, and like many say the best bang for the buck sports car.
