Hi Everyone!

Hi^^

I' m writing fro Italy, and I not own a 370z, but for now only this:

(Mazda MX-5 NC 2.0 6M)

I'm searching infos about the Nissan, because I want to change, and a 370z is an interesting choice.. (the other thinking is for a Cayman S, a bit more expensive)

It' s very different from my miata.. more power (+100%), but more heavy too (+40%)... so the big fear is to lose the current agility.. but I hope that is not so true, or however, that a good suspensions setup full this gap ^^

And here is a bit difficult to mantain it (taxs, fuel, insurance etc), so I ve to do a lot of calculations too! ;(

So, for now I' m here only to read and read... I'm a voyeur

Welcome.

Welcome and good luck on the choice. I drove a Miata before I bought my Z. Nice car but not quite enough "go" for me. Very good handling though.

Thanks guys

And yes, the miata, with "stock" engine (I'm waiting for re-map, but the goal is about max 195hp) is not very fast, not "go" so much.. but yes, I love is handling ^^ I' ve got JIC suspension with harder sway bars (and larger wheels).. perfect on road, very nice on track (the problems is for the 70% between steering wheel and seat xD)

I hope to find a showroom near me to try it.. I don' t understand if the 370z is more like a sport japan car (so a mix of good power and handling), or is more similar to a muscle, with a "big" N/A engine and the preferece to straight way.. of course, I hope the first!

PS
For now, I searching infos about the suspensions, handling, etc
