Agreed! As you said that a lot of stuff is shared with the G37 and it's been on the for a year already. In 2003 350Z had those problems because it was a BRAND new car without any previous models. This time it'll be a lot better experience IMO

After buying the first year production car of the G37, i came to realize that i should have waited a bit because there are soo many little bugs/gremlins......rattles everywhere...throttle problems...actuator problems (causes thumping sounds, very nasty to hear from an engine).....broken pieces in exhaust....cd player messed up.......other ppl had sunroof problems......rattle noise from center speaker......not able to change the radio station, gets locked...lol...(Sunsational would go crazy if that happened to her while Womenizer was playing !!)...and there are other stuff as well.


recently there's a AirBag problem for the passenger seat, it turns off even when a person is sitting there.

I was until I heard of the overheating issue. Although I doubt they will, I'm hoping they will fix in the next year. I also want a stick, so I'm a little sketchy on the rev match.

they did not fix it in the second model year of the G37. so i don't think they will on the Z. but come one oil cooler will be a cheep mod and is that worth waiting 1 year for something that might not happen?

That and the whole GTR debacle has me a little concerned that the cars of late aren't getting tested enough before production. I'm in no rush, so might as well be safe.
