Default Need to end up with a sports car again

Hello there, I'm currently driving a 07 Toyota FJ Cruiser and have been missing something that can corner at the turns like my previous car. I had a 04 Mazda RX8 for two years before getting my FJ. At the time I almost went with a 350z but wanted the rotary engine. Now that I've seen the 370z I'm ready to hit the streets again. I'm pretty sold on a the Touring + Sport w/ 6MT in blue w/ orange interior. Love the colors. Now I just need to convince the wife that it'll be a fun toy. She loved the RX8 as well so I think it might be able to happen this spring/summer.

What's the largest rectangle one can fit in the back of the Z? I travel around with a Pelican 1610 case (21.78" x 16.69" x 10.62" ) full of my camera gear quite a lot and it'd be nice if it could fit back there. I could probably buy a 1510 case (19.75" x 11.00" x 7.60") to fit all my gear if the 1610 proved too large.

I just bought a vacuum today and it fit just fine. Just measured the box... 31"x15"x10"

Simply go to the dealer with your equipment and load it up! You will find that on models with the rear deck area retractable tonneau cover that the cover will bulge where your equipment's height exceeds the level of the cover, but the rear deck holds a surprising amount although visually it looks small.

I don't see why not!
I think we all should be real picky when it comes to buying something like a sports car.
Hope everything works out partner!
