Just a thought.
Yep, that was me. I was seriously looking for a new car earlier in the Spring...for track duty. This immediately and irrevocably put me off the idea of a new 370Z. If the car can't do a few track laps as delivered in std dress form, I have little faith in any other engineering on the car. It's basic stuff, so what else is potentially in the same de-engineered state is anyone's guess. I don't want to be the one to find out the hard way.

This particular item may be easily fixed, but then again maybe not, and with almost guaranteed bad effects on any factory warranty w/3rd party parts & patches.

Roger over and out Nissan....til it's fixed...by the factory fessing up and putting the necessary fix(es) in place.
