If you do what I suggested to it, It's a great little car to have fun in.

Feel free to PM me with any question. I will say this though, Wait to see what the next year model is going to have if you're looking at buying new.

I'd rather get a Honda Fit. Cheaper, not much difference in mpg 27/33 vs 31/37, lighter, way more practical, and in my eyes better looking.

Notsud 13 · 10-01-2012, 05:10 PM

Yea, I think I'll just keep my 370 for now, its not that bad on gas and my dog can still fit in it...for now lol (2 month old blue fawn pit). Stick with minor bolt ons and I'll go all out with my 240z.

The GTI could be an option for you as well? I love mine! Fun and practical in one.

MPG's aren't great though...if that's something your looking for?

Don't do it. I had one for a year. It was fun for a few months, but its really a dog that can't get out of its own shadow. I wound up getting rid of it. There are lots of cars that can get you 40 on the highway.

Notsud 13 · 10-01-2012, 07:27 PM

haha thanks for all the input guys. im keeping the 370z. im at the muffler shop getting my greddy catback and megan test pipes installed. someone asked me to post soundclips in another post so ill post some vids afterwards.

I thought it was the cutest lil car so i took a red one for a test drive. Coming from a CRX/Civic/GSR and so on I wouldnt call it fun 2 drive. Geared 2ward performance? NOT...but if I was lookin for a cute gas saver the CR-Z would make my top 3. Rather bland driving experience in my opinion. Everytime i see i dude in one i think wow he looks really gay. Its one of those cars like the paseo and 1-series bimmer that jus look like chick cars. But 2 each his own. With these gas prices im in my honda accord atleast days aweek.

bigdog1250 · 10-01-2012, 07:38 PM

Good choice^

Just had to add these last few ideas - FR-s/BRZ, Gti as mentioned, but others to not be overlooked are the ford focus and fiesta. Both look decent and are kinda fun to drive believe it or not.

You'll love the Z with an exhaust - just make sure you have seat heaters as you'll prefer to drive around with the windows down now to enjoy that tone and you don't want to get cold

haha california driver here, no need for seat warmers.

Yeah, my last car was an S2000. It's way more fun than a CRZ, but unfortunately gas mileage won't be as good. Very reliable and and overall fun car.

Keep your 370z, sell the 240, and buy an old CRX.
Remove the passenger seat in the CRX and you have plenty of room for your dog.
