Even though I love my Z as it is,
1:Maybe 25 lbs of noise reduction in the back
2:Memory seats would be nice
3: I have always loved the all-digital gauges like on the gt-r even if it's just an option.
4: Im surprised noone has said this yet, but the start button near the transmission like on a gt-r

to hell with all this stuff in this thread, it'd be great if all they did was add the nismo brake pads and an oil cooler as standard equipment on all sport package/nismo Z's.

(oh, and miata doors too , yes, I read that thread and it was ******* hilarious).

All leather interior instead of the cheap fake suede inserts, analog clock where the digital gauge is, analog gas and temp gauges, an oil cooler and either quieter tires (that is where the majority of road noise comes from) or better sound proofing. It is the loudest car I have ever owned and makes long freeway cruises less than enjoyable. I'm fine with the power and torque and not convinced that DI has been perfected enough yet to make it worth the problems.

All I want for christmas is Oil temp, Oil press, & water temp in the gauge cluster. Stronger CSC & MCS so we upgrade the clutch.

and oil cooler included with car.

#1) I think they hit a home run with the 370Z styling. The 350Z never got my juices flowing. In another couple of years, I think a total refresh would be a very good thing (keep my current Z unique, give me a reason to buy another). I'd like better sightlines, and a lot less bulky feeling on the road. But don't make it into a Miata (unless you just gotta have them doors!)

#2) This would also be the opportunity to lose some bulk/weight. Today's drivetrain with a 2600lb car would be sick! In fact unless it loses weight, the Z as we know it will be gone forever. Unless the Z loses weight, it will end up with a 900lb battery pack and another 150lbs of electric motors. Yuck!

#3) For the truly hard-core, a twin-turbo version with real Brembos. Gotta have something to scare those 'Vettes & big Porsche's.

I love my car. Can't think of any changes that won't end up making it too socially responsible, or too much of a girly car. Live free or die!

nope not at all I was looking at them online yesterday. Nice looking and fast. But suck on gas. That would make a nice family car with some getup and go but I would still need my own sports car.

I would like the 2011 Z, more complaint free. There are far to many people unhappy with their car! The forum is flooded with gripes and complaints, no one can deny that!

they complain that it's not as fast as a GT3 or as well made as a Aston Martin. It's not as expensive as those cars either. I believe we got more than we paid for in the cars we bought. Oh and some year soon Nissan will come out with an updated Z very diferent than ours. If you can't handle this fact than there isn't a car out there you can buy because there will always be something faster, something better built and all cars will be updated.

Be happy with the car you have and don't worry about others.
