From what I can tell, much. The 370z is floppy and fat compared to my vette. The brz won't be a rocket, even with the STI version, but it should feel more telepathic. The 370z is dog slow to me, and it doesn't matter. Speed in a straight line has meant less and less over time to me. Telepathic driving input and feel and reliability have become more meaningful.

In short, the 370z never felt good. The interior was just nice for the market segment, but its performance in the corners has always.left me feeling meh. The brakes are the last straw in a long list of..."is this a rwd altima?" Thoughts I have been feeling for the last year. The smushy steering.g responses (I feel like I'm on a bike, the way it rolls when you give any Sharp inputs) and. The horribly noisy power steering when pushed in corners or quick transitions are just sad.

I guess it might be honest to say that I never liked this compromise car. The brakes are just what have finally made me throw up in my mouth enough to act. I'll wait and see if the brz STI is all I hope it is, but regardless, I'm dumping my 370 before 3/36 is done. It's just not a keeper.
