Default What's your biggest beef with your 370z/any other car?

My current car, the third gen Eclipse, the hood latch is retarded and takes multiple tries, and my doors are never stationary when it's opened, so it always hits me when I'm trying to get in or out.

What's your biggest beef with your car?

Tire/road noise sounds the same whether I have the windows roll down or up in the 370Z. LOL!

It's a small thing, but the side mirrors are freakin annoyingly large, and block my view. I need to yank them off and replace them with something smaller.

1) Ridiculous high in-cabin noise.
2) Very high gravel/sand/tire noise.
3) Clicky, sticky gear shift. (MT)

You know I was just thinking this today as I was making a left turn. Hrmmm

Aside from that... the biggest complaint I have is all the gas I go through... because I can't stop driving my car because it kicks total azz!!!

Little things like road noises and relatively limited visibility from inside. But who cares! It is a very beautiful vehicle and fun to drive.

Road noise is not that bad, but the limited visibility (blinds spots) is something you as a driver need to get used to it. I do have to look twice or three times especially on the passenger side. I already have the driver side down pack.

Other than that I'll see tomorrow when I pick up the car since they are they replacing my front bumper and I will have no holes.

The best thing about the car is the engine and road noise, especially the Nismo.

I agree with Red370! Kudo's Bro!!

I don't even know how to respond to this whole thing about road noise, or any other noise for that matter. The sounds my Z makes is something beautiful to hear, and the feeling behind the wheel is above any words I could think up to write right now. Driving my Z Roadster is just plain GREAT. I absolutely LOVE everything about my new Z! This is just one absolutely terrific car. Every chance I get, I am driving it, anywhere, just to get her out on the roads is plenty enough for me. Returning to this noise thing, sometimes I turn off the radio just so I can enjoy listening to all that my Z is. Buying my 2010 Z was one of the best things I have ever done. I'm a happy man!!

Exactly right. This car is all about involvement and visceral response. This is NOT a GT, it's a Sports Car! If you don't like the noise, maybe you just don't get it! Go buy a toyota!
