I'm not sure where this comes from - I have the upgraded Bose in my 2013 370Z sport and it rocks.

The upgraded Bose system, while sufficient for much of the general public, is quite terrible in terms of quality

I think my car might have a radio or something.

You want break neck response out of the z... Bolt ons. Which most have...and then Sprint booster. Click the little button on red turn off tcs and let her rip. Bet you won't ever say it doesn't push you back in the seat again after that. ;-)

Besides this car is V6 N/A.
OP only a v8 or a TT V6 can give you that feeling of being pushed down against the seat..
But this car is quick..you need more torque to find that sensation.
The Z is only rated 275 torque at the crank.

Take it to a real track, the Z is a car for the track not to go around cones in a parking lot, in fact I can almost say the car is too fast for you at the track

Except it overheats and/or we can't get fuel to it on track. Thanks Nissan.

You are right on both, it does suck. I did the oil cooler already, just need to fix the fuel issue next.

Even with those issues, I can't think of a Sports Car (mustangs, M3s, CTS, WD40s, etc aren't sports cars) that gives you as much as the 370z for the money, say you drop another $5k upgrading the Z, you have a sick car in the end.

I won't go quite that far. But it is really the only option available if you want a somewhat powerful 2-seat sports car and don't want to spend $40k+.

Or don't want to waste $10k on a mid-90's P.O.S. 'Vette.
