It's as if Nissan figured out that they could add some more profit to the cars and that they'd be fine without a cooler for 98% of the buying public, instead of having a slightly lower profit margin, and satisfy 100% of the buying public. 10000 370z's produced, 2% would be 200 cars. Actually, I think that's even a bit high. More like 0.5% would be the number of people who are unhappy that there isn't an oil cooler. I'm not saying it is an issue, nor am I saying it's not. I do think it's a bit shady to give the magazine reviewers one thing, get the great reviews, then sell something different to the public. Therefore, that's why I say it'd not be an issue if the car's price increased $500 or less, and came with an oil cooler "as advertised" by magazine reviews.

[QUOTE=kannibul;292689]"True, but also consider the test cars for magazine reviewers also had an oil cooler".
That’s because every “merkin” face magazine reviewer is going drive it like it’s in a demolition derby! Merkin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
