That way these special snowflakes wouldn't clutter up useful places like the general discussion area. It's really too bad this place didn't exist...I wouldn't even know what to call this "other vehicles" section. Threads like the Z06/Challenger etc really make me wonder if these window lickers even realize they're in a 370Z enthusiast forum. Or perhaps they don't realize in the vast interwebz there exists forums for the cars they like. I'm all for the discussion of other vehicles and how the Z stacks up to them but those threads just seem to draw in the trolls lol.

Very true. And honestly, I've never seen such things in other forums.
In the Miata forums, people discussed moving from one generation Miata to another. In the Fiat forums, there were discussions of going from a Pop to a Turbo, or a Turbo to an Abarth, and here lately, from an Abarth to an Alfa 4C.
On here, it should be people asking about staying with a 350 or upgrading to a 370 or vise versa, or upgrading to a GTR. More times than not, you see people complaining about the Z, being an old outdated design, being under-powered, or going to some domestic lump.
I think people have lost touch with what the Z is and where it came from and what it's design is all about. Kind of like what Mazda was going with the Miata, getting bigger, heavier, more luxurious, becoming less and less a Miata, hence why their newest one went back to their roots. With the Z on the other hand, it's not Nissan disconnecting from their roots, but the customers instead. Pitting the Z up against cars it has no reason to be compared to.
Anywho...
