Welcome and congrats on your new car. Let us know what you think of her when you get her compared to the 300ZX.

Ok so after a couple of days of playing with my new 370z, my comparison to my old 300zx is as such.
I think both cars have great styling, the 370z has way more power and seems to be a much lighter, peppier car. In the handling department the new Z crushes.

On the flipside to be honest I much prefered the short gear shifts in my 300zx, and the 300zx had a much roomier interior and more comfortable seats.
Maybe it's a personal thing but being 6"5 my head grazes the roof of the 370z where that just wasn't an issue with the 300zx.

Overall I'm thrilled with the new car, love the rev matching and think the car is gorgeous, my only regret is that now having seen the Red interior option on the 40th aniversary I can't help but picture how good that would look in my black 370z.

Congrats!

I've wanted the Z since the Z32 came out, was in High School at the time and was lucky to have a car at all (VW Rabbit - Diesel, LOL).

Finally got my Z34 and loving it.

Any good body shop can match the paint no problem. I want to get mine painted too, probably flat black.

Enjoy!
