June 2014 issue Car and Driver has a nice little article about used 370Z's being a beasty little car that will get you into the performance catagory for not much money. Nice to see. They did talk about the go-round they had with brake failure with the 2009 Nismo test during the 2010 lightning lap event, but that's just fair warning.
