Default New 2012....

Did you get the Navigation Package and upgraded sound system? I just purchased a new 2011 (told same as 2012..no major changes...) with same options but had to have the Navigation System and Music Box which is great. No need for CDs once you record them on the hard drive. Love the car...look forward to getting up each day to drive to work....

the only thing I wished it had was blue tooth, but that is in the touring packing

You're not supposed to "take it easy"; you're supposed to avoid holding a constant engine speed...

Rev up and coast down should build vaccum and help seal the piston rings.

Zero oil consumption on any new motor I've broken in.

Nissan should changed the Z colors at least since they have NOT done any significant changes except the oil cooler and side heated mirrors.

Too many grays and sorry OP but the cherry black....anyway welcome.

Whats the difference between 2012 and 2011 370 z I got one year left to pay on the mustang then Im either getting corvette or 370 z. I love the black cherry color that is the color I would get. So do the 2012 come with an oil cooler and the 11s dont.

The 2012s come with a water-to-oil cooler, the 2011s and earlier do not. The persimmon interior is also now limited to only the Magnetic Black and Pearl White exterior colors in the 2012 models. That's really it as far as differences.

I like the interior a lot. The touring package interior is very similar to an Infiniti interior if you've ever been in one. You should go check one out at the dealership and sit in it. I think you will like it.

My aunt has a 2010 infiniti g37xs drove that car and that thing has balls and is really confortable. If I got one I would get the black cherry in a touring sport automatic.
