Just finished 6 hours in a flight simulator now I'm tired and missing my Z. I can't wait to be finished commuting half way across the continent back to by car.
I watched the top gear episode about the 370 on Netflix last night. It's not a bad review, but they compaired it to a BMW z3 roadster. And they liked the Beamer better... What???? I'm switching to overhauling.

BBC season 13 episode 6
BMW z4 vrs 370Z (The 370 turns out a slightly faster track time btw) The hosts like the BMW more and say our Z is loud and brutal and unpleasant to drive. (Of course I kind if like it rough so...) Overall it is a fun episode though and is on Netflix. If I recall they are driving a 2010 6mt touring and liked the synchro-rev-matcherizer. Also the host admitted the Z was a lot of fun to drive. I think his objection came down to it being too brutal for a daily driver.

Paraphrase: It is his last line, Even though the Z is faster, better handling, and cheaper, we say get the BMW.

I really did like that episode. Funny stuff. Not really a critical review of the Z, just a preference toward his more "refined" tastes. I'll take my "hairy chested zed" any day.

100% Also, it seemed like some of the reasons he DIDN'T like the Z were the same reasons I DO like the Z
