I think most of us like the 300ZX, I think most of the criticisms are of the writer of the article. Here's my take ...

What do you think of someone who uses the words

"special" and "unique" in the same sentence as "tweed, vinyl, and plastic" when describing a car's interior ...

Ugh, just read that dribble for the second time. The author is a gargantuan moron to put it lightly.

The so-called author didn't even check his facts. The 300ZX is 2 inches WIDER than the 370Z? First off, you'd have to literally be blind to think that is accurate, and a simple search for the specs of both cars reveals that the 370Z is 2 inches wider than the Z32 300ZX...

As soon as I read the interior comparison part of the article, I just and closed the tab.

I liked the GI Joe/Barbie commercial myself.

I miss my 300 still. The ride quality and lush interior. Hitting my head in certain turns on the roof is very much not missed. Also it's low ride was hard on my aging knees. The 370 delivers.

yep, 370z is wider, taller, and longer than a 2 seater z32.

One of these days I'll add a Z32 TT to my stable. Just think that there is some valid comparisons between the Z32 and the Z34. It tells you just how good a job they did on the Z32. Not many 20 year old cars can stand up to their current versions.

I wouldn't recommend it for the sake of your 370z
