Default My First Z And McLovin It

WOW! Whatta fantastic sportscar!

Hello, my name is Buzz and I live in the SF Bay Area. Last Sunday, I traded in my 2006 S2000 for a 2009 370Z Touring edition with the sports package and navi unit. I'm totally in love with this car and I'm gonna do my best to keep it as long as I can.

Thank u all so much for the greets and keep 'em comin, HAHAHAH!

There's a big difference in acceleration for sure. The Z just makes u sink into your seat and I so much love it. Feels so good to know there's POWER!

Also, I'd say the suspension is tighter in the S2000 and the transmission is a bit notchier in the S2000. The Z feels a tiny bit rubbery when shifting.

Leg room in the Z is far superior and I don't feel like I'm in a coffin, HAHAHAH!

Overall, I like the Z's looks when compared to the S2000, but having a convertible was so much fun. With the S2000, I'd always be scared that someone is gonna tear into the roof and steal the car and also the fear of the roof tearing and needing replacement.

The Z is a better car for me and I feel very happy with my purchase. Was sad to see the S2000 go

As far as mods, I'm not sure if I wanna do that, but quite possibly. It's a tough decision for me. I'll have to keep reading the threads here and decide what I want to do.

Welcome, glad you like the 370Z in comparison to the S2000. Those are one of my favorite cars. Just curious, what dealership did you go through?
