I still can stand the sight of a stock one...looks is still the only thing I don't like...

Ill agree with that, considering i changed the spring and the put in redline tranny fluid and it pretty much feeld the same. I even went as far as going to the dealership and test driving other brand new Zs, and some of them were actually worse. there was a roadster there that was just plain awful.

Agreed. I thought the 350 looked like an ugly turtle from the first time I saw one, and that hasnt changed to this day.

The best way to make this decision is to take a picture of yourself standing next to each version as well as a picture of you in each car with windows down. Put the pictures side by side and see what a few little kids think since they are brutally honest and don't know or care about the tidbits of automobile technology. It's probably better to go with relatives since they have a sense for your personality AND so you don't get arrested for surveying kids at your local Chuck E Cheeses. Try to get similar colors so they aren't swayed by their favorite color.

they will just question why the op is bald?

12...the 13 looks too much like a 350. IMO the 13 is a step backwards when it comes to looks. Also, it is a shame that Nissan did not do anything to bump up the HP numbers.

I will say that in the end YOU are paying for the car so go with the one YOU like...who cares what anyone else thinks.

There will always be people who like your car and people who will hate your car if you drive anything worth noticing!

While both front ends of the 370z leave something to be desired. Black out the fang area and the Z looks incredibly masculine and intimidating. With the new front. It looks like you had an accident and replaced your front end with a 350z and did a cheap modification by replacing the front signal lights with LED's.

Are you sure your not just buying into the 2013 brand spanking new hype? Unless your loaded, why not save cash and get a good deal on a 12?

cooltoy · 07-26-2012, 06:29 PM

Wait for the 2014.
