thanks AK for the pic edit.
I previously drove a base 06 350z. That car was my baby...i loved her. But when i saw the new one i started to wonder. I didnt like the 370z immediately, but seeing it in person really reeled me in. the car is gorgeous. so...for my review--
performance:
havent taken her to the track yet, but it has obvious power over the 350. I can easily overtake a car staying in 6th. It really does throw u back in your seat effortlessly. I also noticed how soft the clutch is. I thought the 350 was alright, but it's like slicing butter with this one. Another great feature of the 370 is the transmission. It doesnt make all the clunky noises like my 350 and it slides right into gear without effort. the rev-match technology is amazing! I constantly get WOW-ed by it. I sometimes try to confuse it by coasting in neutral or something stupid like that...but it is flawless.
interior: major upgrade from a 350. there's a lot less of that plastic stuff that used to scratch up and look horrible. the seats are very comfortable and supportive. the armrests are padded and are in perfect location for shifting or chaning the volume. only complaint is the one cupholder...oh well. the back is alot roomier now too because the bar is right behind the seat as opposed to in the middle of the trunk.
other: push button start and one touch open is really convenient! i never have to take the keys out of my pocket! the guages are all awesome and easy to read. unfortunately, the 370 does not have a digital speedo like the 350 or the thing that tells exact tire pressure in each tire...oh well.
Overall, I am very happy with the car. It's a major upgrade. other cars that i considered were: g37 coupe, bmw 335i coupe. for the price, you cant beat the Z!
in case your wondering...for my base with sports package...i paid 34,225
