370z never in magazine comparos
 
Why is the 370z constantly being left out of all the recent comparison test in the auto magazines? I'm sick reading of the hyundai but no 370z to be seen????!!!

Nissan 370Z vs. BMW 135i, Mazda RX-8 R3, and Pontiac Solstice GXP - Comparison Tests - Auto Reviews - Car and Driver

2010 Audi TTS vs 2009 BMW Z4 sDrive35i vs 2010 Nissan 370Z vs 2009 Porsche Boxster S - Sports Convertible Comparison - Motor Trend

Probably not in recent reviews since it came out in '09

There was a 370Z vs. 5.0 GT comparo a while back. Forget the mag, but it was mainstream. hit racks about a month ago.

Kenchan, you don't like to read the reviews in any mags?

JB1 01-06-2011 02:57 PM

most reviews were done in late '08, early '09 already, our car is getting old...

370Z Deserves More Recognition
 
I was thinking the same thing when I received the last two issues of Car and Driver, Automobile and Road and Track. The 370Z wasn't even a contender for Car of the Year or All Stars, yet you'll see the Mustang and the RX-8 keep popping up. Why are they so enamored with the RX-8? I just don't get it. :shakes head:

Maybe cuz the RX-8 is a little more versatile??? It does have a trunk and a back seat and a little more room. Other than that who knows

BrickyardZ 01-06-2011 03:20 PM

I'm not buying it. It doesn't have the looks, doesn't have the torque, goes through gas and oil, ....... Hell with the seat, who needs it. The mags like the Z, but going on year three it seems to be "old" and forgotten.

Ever since they crashed one into a wall, there has been no love from the magazines.

Nismoracer 01-06-2011 03:40 PM

Maybe they aren't giving it any attention because they know it will get a lot when Fast Five comes out and its Paul Walkers car in the movie. :eekdance:

because most mags are for regular folks who usually needs 4 seats and can only barely afford one car.

So, I have been wondering, are you Japanese or were you born in Japan?
