370z is aesthetically a masterpiece

PapoZalsa · 03-26-2013, 03:38 PM

A lot of people lately has been biotching about their 370Z, paint, price, etc.

Like OP said is the best bang for the buck, the power is more than enough to get me in trouble since I don't track or race my car. I just like to drive fast and go in spirit runs.

Defects? every car has that, if you didn't do your homework before purchasing the Z SHAME ON YOU!

I love my Z which is 09 plus got involved in an accident that the total damage was $9K, the car looks and drive like new.

asides from the sunked in wheels when stock

The car is hard to beat in looks for a sub 40k

No need for turbo, get the VTEK.

I found it difficult to find a car that checked all the boxes for me. Nothing really needed any significant improvement. It looks great and the only thing that bothered me with the styling is the stock bumper would curve up at the corners making it a bit soft, a front splitter cures that. The engine sounded great before 5krpm, and not so good after, a good exhaust cured that. The brakes only needed some real pads and fluid. The engine overheating issue only really needed an oil cooler.

I couldn't be happier with the car.

Love this car. Looks so angry when the front dips under heavy braking. I'm glad I got the fanged version and none of this LED silliness.

Best bang for the buck as far as looks and performance, nothing comes even remotely close in the looks department. ...just saying

Bought it new and going on my first year this coming May. My baby will hit 20k by that time. I have a daily driver but it is not driven daily like I should. This is so much fun to drive so why miss a day driving it. It is best bang for the buck. A good balance of everything in my opinion as well as many others. A positive thread for a change. Not everyone will be happy but man a few can ruin a great party. Thanks OP.

I sense jealousy, because I still have the fangs, but they aren't body-colored and as pronounced (like a snaggle-tooth).

I love threads like this! Still to this day it is VERY rare for me not to turn around for another look after I park and walk away. The BEST looking car under 40K. Hands down.

I'm constantly told by my friends, "It'll be there when you get back." or "Staring at your car still?" after I've been there for 15-20min.

Haha I know what you mean! My gf gets annoyed when were walking back to my car and I say "wait wait! This would be a great pic. Could you move out the shot for a sec..? Or actually, just maybe bend over it a litte?"

My favorite spot is when I'm parked underneath the white light post in a vacant lot at night. The PG and my wheels look sick. Haha.

I love the lines of the 370z even though mine is black and it's harder to see. I think the 350 and 300zx were too big and bland and am glad the 370z returned to the traditional Z look.

When it first came out in 2009 I didn't really like the fangs. Now that I see the 2013 refresh, I actually like my fangs. I do like the LEDs but the revised front end looks too much like a 350z.

This! The reason I bought a 12' over a 13'. Your 2013 got punched in the mouth
