I just bought my 8th Z car, a 2014 Touring Sport in PW. Since the 350 Z came back, I had been looking at the occasional Z's on the dearler's showroom floor every time my wife would pick up a new Murano, finally got one 3 years ago, a 2011. I started eary with a '70 240Z, a 260Z, a couple of 280's, and a couple of 280ZX's, the most recent of which was a 280ZX Turbo. Then...kids and our first house happened, and Nissan kind of lost me when the Z concept morphed into a bloated luxo-cruiser with the 300s. Now...kids are gone, house is paid for. This being Minnesota, the Z is a 6-months-of-the-year vehicle (if that), and my daily driver has to be a 4wd truck for the snow/ice and the horse/boat/snowmobile/etc trailers that are a mandatory part of living in northern Minnesota. The 370 Z is a great sports car, every bit as much fun as I remember my 240 Z was 45 years ago. Congratulations.

My 2011 didn't have the Nav package, but I did get one for this 2014. It finishes off the dash nicely and the info display is nice, even though the Nav itself sucks pretty bad. Map coverage here in rural America is ridiculous....FAR better performance from a $3 navigation app on my iPhone. I'm hoping to be able to upgrade to Apple's CarPlay when Nissan implements it later this year. Running my iPhone and Nav apps on my current navigation screen would be great.
