It does make great power for a non-aspirated car. I had no clue the engine was non-aspirated....how does it run?

UNKNOWN_370 - Nearly every car is aspirated (breathing). The Z is Naturally Aspirated (NA) stock.

To answer your question OP... The 370Z has serious issues with cooling, and another area where the 350Z excels (ever so slightly) is in fuel tank design. If I were you, I'd buy a gently used 07-08 350Z and save the rest for maintenance.
It may not have the most "power" but I would definitely say its fast...

Fast is a matter of perspective.

I agree. But when its times are similar and close to all sort of V8's out there, id say its fast. Obviously its no vette or the like... Unless someone only thinks that something that runs a 10 second quarter or a 0-60 in 3.5 are the only things they consider fast... thats not realistic to me...

Where in Texas required you to be 17-18 to get a license? I have been legally driving since I was 15 and I'm the same age as you. :P

Dunno, I had to be 17 to take driver's ed at home. I learned from my Dad, not some driving teacher. Maybe it was a requirement for the home-course, but it certainly made me a better driver, I think. Dad=much more experienced that most driver's ed teachers.
