Sold the Z...and bought another Z!
 

Hey guys, a few weeks back I traded my '08 350z for my '09 370z. I've wanted the 370z for quite awhile and finally decided to make the jump. It's a Touring with Sport Package (obviously :rolleyes:). Z's are rare in my area so I had to shop around for a long time. I found the one I bought, a a solid red (auto) base, and a platinum graphite (6spd) base. I actually hated the chicane yellow in the pictures, but I'm glad a gave it a chance. I found out yellow is very difficult to photograph because the color looked different in person..and it eventually grew on me :icon17:. I was a member of my350z.com for a few years..so this site is kinda familiar to me already. Here are some pics..

Hi

3 pedals, good man :tup:

Now......start saving for the charger :tiphat:

Great trade up! Love the color.

Nice trade up. Its what I want to do.
It be nice to hear some input from a 350 to a 370. Thanks.

Congrats on the upgrade!

:hello: welcome aboard .

I actually thought about getting an auto..for about 30 seconds :icon17:. I don't know..I've always been intrigued with paddle shifters.:p

Thanks! I was very unsure of the color at first. I actually hated it when I first saw the dealer's pics of the car. Turns out yellow is a hard color to photograph and the dealer did a terrible job of it. The color looked totally different in person and I fell in love once I saw it.

Definitely two different cars but also the same..if that makes any sense :icon17:. The 370z didn't lose that Z feeling. The car felt familiar when I first test drove it. It is just much more refined. Things are a little smoother, quieter, and the build quality (especially interior) has really been improved over the 350z. The handling feels similar, cornering is very precise and predictable. Braking, I'll start by saying I thought my 350z's brakes were out of this world good, incredible braking. My 370z has the sport pack, and the 350z's brakes do not even compare. I don't DD my Z so it always takes a little adjusting for me to get used to the brakes each time I drive it :driving:. Acceleration wise, to me, the 370z feels quite a bit faster..but it doesn't feel like you're going as fast like in the 350z. The 370z gets up to speed quickly but it doesn't jerk or make a fuss about it like my 350z did, it just goes.
