I highly recommend convex mirrors to eliminate the blind stops. They are absolutely critical for commuting in traffic in So Cal. You can purchase convex mirrors that fit over the whole mirrors or ou can use the smaller stick on mirrors. They have saved my butt several times from drivers who insist on sitting in my blind spot.

If you had also mentioned the rather "harsh" engine noise as the revs climb, you would have hit all the gripes that virtually all of the car mags and reviews complain about the Z. I knew all of those things going in. It's a sports car. I don't expect it to be equipped like a GT. The thing, IMHO, that sunk the Z and resulted in "the lost years", (1997-2002) was their march from true sports car (240Z) to bloated, overweight GT luxo-cruiser (Z32 - the 300ZX). 2+2!? Are you kidding me? In the 370Z, we have the return of an actual sports car. Bravo! I'll reserve my purchase of a Cayman S for the day that Nissan announces a 370Z 2+2 version. Then I'll know that Nissan has lost their way again.
