gentlemen, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission...

Better in every single way, especially in keeping clean

I did the same exact thing......black 04 350z to PW 370z. Although the 350 was the base for financial reasons...I got exactly what I wanted this time and went with the Sports Package.

Love black when its clean but drive it once and it needs washed again.

I agree.

I jumped from an 05 350 to an 09 370 Base with Sport Package. I miss the feel of my 350 but the 370 is just better in almost every way.

It does. Did you vote?

That goes along my theory of "It never hurts to ask if you ask nicely."

She actually 'pre-approved' me for a project car like an older Datsun.

Bought an 05 Touring 2/08, traded for a 09 base in 5/09. As much as I spend on motortrend and the like I had no idea there was a new Z coming when I got the 05. The wife was not at all happy that I made the switch......... I told her the continuation of our marriage can be questioned, my buying the car cannot.

Looks like I'm the first to be owning a 350z and wanting a 370z. However, I just bought my 08 350z 3 months ago. I want the 370z roadster but $46k (new) + $2100 (unpainted Nismo body kit) is well out of my price range. Before buying a 370z, I have to pay off the 350z (2011) and at least buy the wife a new vehicle. I'm looking at 2012 for a low mile used example. I love the 350z, but i miss having a vert.

Totally. I guess people stick with what they know is a good car.

SmoothZ · 12-12-2009, 08:02 PM

So why do people upgrade? Or can we call it an upgrade? A Z is still a Z no matter what generation.

So was their a huge difference in technology from 03 to 09?

ZPirate · 12-13-2009, 09:43 AM

From my perspective the answer is yes. There are significant differences between my 03 Touring and my 09 Touring, not only with regard to technology, but in almost every part of the car.
