What do you like from the 350Z better than the 370Z?

Btw, are you referring to the G35 coupe or G35 sedan? Or both?

I think my G35C is still the beauty from Nissan.
The 370Z is gorgeous though. Well, at least mine is.

Not sure why only ugly greasy doodz like my car though...

If the 370z came with the stock exhaust sound of a 350 + a gauge pod with tire pressures/programmable & maybe keep the side mirrors of the 350 - would be one perfect car.
Maybe even throw in DI to bring back the torque of the 03-04 models.

it is nice to dream..

I have to agree on both the predecessors exteriors looking much better. When I see an 06-08 350z on the road I still marvel at the design, it actually still looks modern even when side by side with a 370

Sometimes I feel the roofline of the 350 is more pleasing to the eye, where the 370 is more sharp and GTR-esque. Otherwise the only thing I like more about the 350 is an oil temp gauge. They should have just built the clock into the headunit.

Do you mean an oil pressure gauge? Because the 370 has an oil temperature gauge.

I do really like the programmable gague in the 350, tue clock in the 370 should of been just one of the features of the gague, not the only feature. Also, as I mentioned, the 350s interior door opening handles were aluminium, the 370s are plastic...

Opposite with the Z though. Prefer the styling of the 370 to the 350.

Even though it's not that big of a deal I thought it was totally cool and nerdy how they hid the little Z emblems on the A/C vents between the door and the dash on the 350Z.

Other than that, like others have already mentioned, the programmable aux gauge is much more useful than the clock, not to mention you could get tire pressures at all four corners on the 350Z. Oh...and blind spot much? Our 370Z's rear 1/4 windows are pretty much useless with a passenger's head beside you.

Plot twist 350z drivers around my area are scumbags so I don't want anything they have lol.

Here the 370z drivers are generally epic douchebags. I always wave and get dirty looks.

The sport car crowd is definitely way different than the sport bike crowds that I came from. More receptive and more helpful in the group setting. I have a lot of friends still after I quit riding over 2 years ago. I can't quite find that spark of interest of meets and greets around here. A lot of looking down at you if you don't have your car force induced or supercharged or have humongous wheels on your Z.

Yes the bike crowd is definitely more united, as long as you ride on 2 wheels, doesn't matter what make or model or horsepower you are a brother or sister.

That's because in the overall population, riders are rare but with cars everyone has one so you get a broader spectrum of aholes you could never consider friends.

I have a 2012 Touring/Sport/Navi

Yeah. On my e36 BMW they stayed on all the time.

Its disappointing I stopped at a red light next to this female with a 370z and I simply said nice car, she rolled her window up and drove off

AFTER THAT I decided to simply fug off

Why? Because you wanted them on all the time or because they wouldn't turn off? Or you had an on/off switch that you forgot in the on position all the time

Around here (Las Vegas) Z drivers are ok I guess. Most times when I see a Z going in the opposite direction I flash my high heams and they usually flash back.

SwissCheese · 10-20-2014, 10:27 PM

The thing that initially 'annoyed' me was that the gas gauge in the 370 is just a series of lights (and not a 'gauge', like the 350). I got used to it pretty quickly, but I still would prefer to have an actual gauge.
