Yes, I WAS aware of the "heritage" of the name (and actually my dad turned down a date with Audrey Hepburn, the star of My Fair Lady", said her t*ts weren't large enough, so she almost could have been my mother). But, it still seems TO ME like the name does not fit any type of high powered sports car.

I just wish one could state their opinions, whether positive or negative, without this kind of flaming.

BTW the FerrariChat site was FULL of this kind of intolerance for ANY type of criticism also. Even more so. But, I still would like be able to post my opinions, without this kind of negative feedback. No car is perfect.

Read the threads at the FChat site where I said I was trading in my Ferrari for a 370Z, and you'll see what I mean. Man did I get hammered, but IMO I'll take my Z over the Ferrari any day. I LOVE my Z!!!! Don't tell a Fcar owner that though. I've taken enough abuse. LOL
You probably got the response you did because there was a hint of arrogance and insult in your original post.

Maybe if I was a female driver and my car was painted pink it would be OK!

Sorry if I offended anyone here, as I said, it's just my opinion
The "370Z" is there for people like you, which is probably a large portion of the American population. For the most die hard enthusiasts, the cars roots and heritage supercedes the masculinity, or lack-there-of, in the name.
