In my most humbling opinion Nissan’s has drop the ball on this series of Z. Pretty much Nissan and Mazda had the convertible market wrapped up. They both combine to run Honda (S2000), Pontiac (solstice), Chrysler (crossfire), Saturn (sky) out of business. All of these convertibles have hit the dust in the last 6yrs. Problems have pop up on this series including steering lock, gas tank, oil temperature, paint etc. I had a choice of a tussy under 175 hp Mazda or pay over 50,000 on a BMW for the same thing I get in 370z. If I had to do it all over again, would I buy my 2010 Roadster, manual, SP, 370Z. I dreamed of having a Z for many years, and to wonder if I brought a lemon down the road? Final note, Consumer report and MSN put these cars on the “stay away from list.” TIME WILL TELL, even though I care less what they say about our Z; I would rather it had made the top 10 sports car list....Don't you?
