I always believed that Toyota,Honda and Nissan were the top three foreign made cars?Thats basically why when seeing the new 370 I went for it right away.Should have found this site earlier and would have been aware!
Having owned Toyota's and Honda's there is no comparrison at all with the Nissan product?Nissan is of poor refined quality and there dealers and warranty reputation sucks!
Its a shame to because the car could be so much better and up to date.Trans shifting from 1 to 2nd?Was a problem in the 350"s also?DAH!
Clutch noise?Was a problem in the 350?DAH?Paint sucks terribly?
So nissan doesn't care about its customers only sales?Nissan is of poor quality and not a sound financial purchase in my opinion!

Not trying to start a flame war or anything, but I guess I would ask why you would purchase another Nissan product (I see that you have a 370z) if you experienced so many issues with the 350z. Were you thinking that your 350z issues would be resolved with the new model? If so, I can understand why you're disappointed. But, I guess I would compare your perspective to that of my dad...he loves GM products and has had very good luck with them. I'm not a fan of how, cosmetically, they hold up over several years...but whatever works for him. Sounds like for you another Nissan product may not be the best fit. I was a DIE HARD Honda/Acura fan until I purchased my Altima a few years ago. That car really turned me on to Nissan. The '09 Maxima soon followed and that's when I knew that I now had a new brand that I would be loyal to. Even with the Max, there were people from the Max forum that I belong to that were experiencing significant quality issues (seat "rocking", struts creaking, sunroof creaking, power tilt/telescope motor going out, etc.) but I never experienced any of it.
The compliments I receive, the driving experience, and the sheer way the car makes me feel each time I drive it, are all reasons why this ride is for me.
Last thing I'll say is that every minor issue I've ever experienced with any of my Nissans have always been addressed to my satisfaction by Nissan. Also, they offered me some very attractive incentives and made some pretty sweet deals to get me into these past few cars. I posted a while back about them letting me out of my Maxima's lease with NO EARLY TERMINATION fees...something that the dealership and Nissan Finance thought was some kind of error. Turns out, I was "one of 1000" customers that qualified for an "incentive" like this...or, at least that's what they said. After getting everything in writing, I jumped at the offer and got into the Z. That said, I have nothing but even more love for Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp.
At the end of the day, it all just boils down to preference and what you've experienced. Hope things get better for your current Z...maybe you'll have your Nissan faith restored!
