Lexus Is350 in pw. Sold it my friends wife and just found out it was recently totaled. Some idiot made an unprotected left turn in front of her. Luckily the only thing damaged was the car.

Technically I had this car before my current 370z

Spot the difference
Previous car

Current one

My first one was just bolt ons and my current one has the Stillen kit , built trans and quaife , I traded with a buddy who wanted a stock car again (To trade in) and I wanted to go FI

I did have a 350z HR for a few weeks but hated it so traded it for the 370

Prior to that I had mainly turbo'ed stuff like a couple of Skylines

sucks but atleast ur friends wife was not injured, and u can still buy them new readily available.

when i had my 12yr old G in immaculate nearly new condition, the biggest fear was i couldnt buy a replacement new any longer.. even nissan discontinued a l lot of parts for it.. felt abandoned.. :ugh: i wanted to decide when to let her go, not forced by some faking accident.

the cars i have now, they are replaceable so no stress. :D

She and the two kids made it out safe. Still hate to see a good car get destroyed. It only had 70k on it.

Finally found a picture:

How do you feel 370Z compared to your previous Mustang cobras?

Such completely different cars in almost every way.

I think the 370Z power delivery is similar to a naturally aspirated 4V Mustang (96-98 Cobra, 99 & 01 Cobra, 03 & 04 Mach 1), and although I think Mustangs are more comfortable, the 370Z corners significantly better with almost zero body roll and feels like you're driving a go kart.

I wanted a car that I could take to the track and considered a BRZ/FRS, a Miata, and even a Cayman S, but decided on the 370Z based on the horsepower, looks, and purchase price / cost of ownership.
