Was the 370Z the right choice?

My wife and I will be there, but are leaving Thursday AM so we can enjoy the area before the meet begins.

FYI, this was posted on the CZC forum:

All who wish to caravan to Midwest Z Heritage on Friday, June 14th:
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Meet at Lodi exit (#204) on Route 71S at the McDonalds at 7:30am, we will be LEAVING promptly at 8am.

Be sure to bring 2-way handheld radio to join in the conversations on the way. We normally run Channel 5. These radios are $25-30/pair at Walmart or the like for a basic set.

Welcome, I like your intro. There is nothing that feels better than looking at your car, getting in it and feeling in love with her like the first day!

Well maybe s.x...

Wolfenstein · 07-15-2014, 08:18 AM

Well, I have had my car for over a year and I still feel the same way about her as when I first picked her up. I am SO glad that I did not go with the vette! Every time I walk away from my car I have to turn around and get another look because she is that damn sexy plus no one really stares down a vette like they do a Z Nismo!

Looking at the mods I had planned a year ago I have stuck with so far except for the front bumper because I didn't plan on some jacka$$ backing into it. In the end I am almost glad that it was hit because that Stillen bumper looks amazing

I still need to get the fast intentions exhaust though! I'm slacking.....

I was leaning towards a c6 corvette until I saw the stingray. they have done a great job making the c6 look outdated and I just can't buy the c6 after seeing it. I haven't liked the revision to new model cars lately but the new corvettes are really a home run for GM.

I agree that the c7 stingray looks great (other than the tail lights..wtf?) but how many times will that sucker get recalled?

Davey · 07-16-2014, 04:49 PM

I'm not a huge fan of the C6, the 7 is improved and I'll probably buy one in 5 years when they get through all the recalls.

Love my Z. I have tried many other cars in the meantime but the Z just does it for me.

mab864 · 07-17-2014, 08:32 AM

I really like the C7s too. Big improvement. I drove a C6 before I bought the Z and just couldn't get past that plastic looking interior. And the leather on the drivers seat was completely trashed and the car only had 30K on it. I liked it other than that. I'd like to drive a C7...

I am glad to see after a year you still feel the same way. It sucks to have buyers remorse. I only have once in my life when it came to cars. I research them much better ever since. You really should do the exhaust. I think my car only had around 700 miles when I did mine. It just adds so much to the enjoyment of the car......JUST DO IT!

I just pm'd a guy in the for sale section for test pipes. That will be step one...then step two is to get the CBE....I want either fast intentions or meistershaft (don't know if I feel like spending that much)

janglez · 07-17-2014, 01:21 PM

Hi Wolfenstein! I'm in Brook Park. I waited 18 years to get my Z (waited until my son graduated high school). It was between the Z and Vette for me too (due to wanting a 2-seater). The Z is a better choice due to what you get for the money. I've had Zeus since September. Every time I drive him feels like the first. LOVE this car! And I enjoy watching people give themselves whiplash to get a look as I drive by...

Hello Janglez!

Were you the black cherry Z I waved to on 83 and center ridge yesterday?

janglez · 07-17-2014, 02:21 PM

No, wasn't me. I didn't have the Z out yesterday.
