to the OP, i came from a 350z, and although the the 370 is a tad smaller its roomier and waay more comfortable in the inside. The interior is a huuge upgrade. Along with performance, handling, looks(subjective)...My only regret is that i didnt trade sooner. Its weird for me, i kinda hate 350's now even though am a Z guy...looking back the 350z was just such a let down/disapointment when compared to the 370Z....just my .2

By no means are these bad, the 370z is a big step up from my 05 in so many ways. But you will notice the bad things first, which is natural. But I still miss those two features to this day, and I've had it for almost a year. Other than that, things like the speedo and how good the stock exhaust sounds, you'll get over. The grip, handling, quality, and overall power increase will put a smile on your face. Good luck! Be sure to let us know when you get your new Z!

The 370z drives like a sports car, the 350z looks like a sports car.

The 370 is much more powerful and a better handling car (stock compared to stock). The 7AT is a huge upgrade over the 350 AT.

One negative is the throttle is weird in the 370, feels overly stiff and has an annoying delay. The 370 has more road noise in rear wheel wells, but is sealed better (at the windows) and not as creaky as the 350.

Much nicer interior, although I do miss the eyeglass holder. Also the 350 had those cool through the wiper window washers and individual tire pressure readouts. But this stuff is easily forgotten. The loss of the rear window wiper is a plus as far as I'm concerned.

I always hated the tear drop bubble shape in the 350's design at the cockpit which the 370 removes. Nice!

If I happen to hit one, I go right for the TPS gaauge to see if I'm leaking air from a bend. Which definitely helped me when I bent a rim, was able to see how much PSI that was still in there to see how much further I could make it.
