I've been looking around at your site (which is far better and more respectful than the Chevelle and Mustang forums I belong to) and have seen a couple things I have to question.

1. Is the clutch as awful as the 350s? I drove two 370s and neither was bad, but I talked to a seller that says his clutch is awful for busy traffic.

2. Is the oil cooler an issue for busy traffic on hot Tennessee days?

3. Looking at an older 911 and a new G37S. Anybody have any feelings on the comparisons?

4. Convertible or Nismo?

Thanks all, I look forward to hearing your opinions
1. The clutch in my 2009 370Z feels the same as the one I had in my 2008 350Z. The earlier model 350Z's supposedly had stiffer clutches. Clutch feel is highly subjective though. Just go try one and see if it's your cup of tea.

2. I can't comment on Tennessee. Try checking out the regional forum sections to see what people in your area are experiencing.

3. The G37S is more of a touring car; softer suspension, more amenities, etc. It's definitely very nice, but it is heavier and less sharp than the 370Z. There are a zillion models of the 911 so I can't comment on that. I will say it is a more classic look (since Porsche rarely ever changes it) though.

4. Do you want go to parties where everyone puts their keys into a glass bowl, or parties where everyone is complaining about scraping their lip on speed bumps?
