Whats Your Biggest Pet Peeve

Zcup · 07-16-2015, 07:03 PM

The fact that it is not a 450Z. C'mon Nissan, drop a V8 VK engine in there!

My ears were hurting after the drive so some sound deadening is on the slate again, and the first time I've ever had an issue with lousy throttle response.
Love it more every day though. PW in the bright sun is beautiful.

Breaks (you take these at work), and brakes - these stop the car..

The continuous parade of idiots asserting that Honda Accords, Nissan Maximas and Toyota Corollas are faster than a Z....

I used to have a 35th anniversary 350Z, until I hit a patch of hail and had to look for a new Z (insurance company gave me what I payed for it 4 years earlier!). So I found a nice 2009 370z and I'm still getting used to a few things :

- I really really miss the digit speedo

- I don't like the "suede" inserts in the seats, I miss full leather

- No place for sunglasses

Aside from that, Wow! What a car, so similar and yet different

doors and rear hatch... double layer on the wheel well section. used a roller to help flatten and apply the hushmat.

lined every part of the hatch i could reach and went up to the ECU area.

doors i did 1 per evening and was very straight forward. rear hatch took about half a day on the saturday to put in.

Is there any way to turn off selecting a source from cycling from the steering wheel "source" button? Specifically the XM sets? I didn't mind flipping them through as much during the trial but now that it's over and I refused to subscribe, it's getting annoying.

mishuko · 07-31-2015, 03:20 PM

bit of an exageration but it significantly reduced that ping-ing noise!
