Agree...and tested against my mates 2010 HSV GTS. I was only slighly behind but not much at all. With mods and decent traction I reckon the Z would take it. :P

The issues truly are minor. I have installed a cold air intake and the Hi Tech CBE system. The performance gains where an extra 23.7 horsepower at the wheels.

HOT370! Please tell us that you're in Melbourne! We still haven't had a yellow on our cruises!

Can I just pipe in as an owner of the 2009 and 2010 models and say that it's been 3 weeks+ and no fuel gauge or boot issues so far.

I am however only using mobil and bp now and staying away from shell.

In other news my final light is now back on... The only thing i can attribute this to is as follows:

i go on business trips for 2 weeks with the tank not full, i come back and it's out... 3 or so refils later the final light comes on... each time after that the light is on... I then go on another business trip and the damn f'er is out... conclusion... it rusts or something when you leave it out of the fuel too long... but i don't know why the 2nd and 3rd top dots don't also die... so yeah not a full proof conclusion but that's what i've observed.

Yeah, the 2010 GTR is getting rave reviews. I do like the 370z an awful lot despite a few minor issues that really aren't worth a lot of angst over in the big picture - its a toss up for me whether to beef up the 370z with $30k+ of go fast goodies or stump up for Godzilla.
Hey life is tough...hehe

I've taken a lot of ss but never hsv, but maybe is my auto tranny, the gear changes are always wrong now, night and day difference compare to my test drive.
