I came from a 2010 Evo X MR to the 2011 370Z Nismo. The Evo was a blast to drive, but i just could not get over the cheap build quality of it. It was fun while it lasted, but it was time to move on.

My thoughts exactly. I have fun while I'm driving it, but when I get in or out of it, I'm just not satisfied with it. Not like I was with my old Z.

Only another day until I get my new Z

I don't know much about the X. I made the jump from a IX and the only thing I miss are the seats!

The recaros are so nice. I may spring for a set in the Z.

Leaving in a few hours to go pick her up! I'll post a thread when I get her

I went from an STi to the 370z. Both super fast...both corner well...i think my 370z is lot more comfortable...well worth losing the back seats!

Funny. I went from the Z to the 2011 STi. So far I'm quite happy with it.

Well, it's been a long day. Drove a total of 10 hours today but...... I came home with a 2010 Magnetic Black 370Z 6mt w/ Sport with only 3k miles on it. The paint has been slightly neglected (swirls everywhere), but I think it can be reversed. Everything else looks good - clean carfax, body is straight, no missing trim pieces/clips, under the car looks clean w/ no visible damage, interior is immaculate, engine bay is clean, and most importantly - she drives straight as an arrow

I'll get pics up ASAP.

So what are your impressions? Like it? Regrets?

I've owned / own all these cars being discussed here and still do not know which was my favorite
