Which begs the question....Why is it so rough? As far as your comments regarding Clarkson's qualifications, you apparently have no idea what your talking about, so therefore your comment has no merit.

Sound could be better with a better exaust from factory, ride isnt bad, but i guess if u compare it to a BMW maybe.. I'm surprised they didnt note how fast the Z was.. i mean it did better then cars 20K+ higher in price..

To be fair Top Gear dosnt favor Japanese cars much....almost always talks down on them when being compared to european competition. Regardless the Z still easily beat the Z4 around the track .

I knew it would beat the Evo X just like the Revup Version beat the Evo 9. Very respectable time I must say but off the old Cayman S by a good margin. All in all excellent performance for the dollar period. This is the best Ive seen the 370z look. Really sweet looking especially in motion. That color didnt look bad considering it brown lol.

my wife has a Z4, and no, we don't do the wife swap thing! (unfortunately). It is a nice car though, and we will be doing a Euro delivery on one of the new ones this fall to coincide with oktoberfest. Nothing wrong with liking cars from everywhere!

On the other hand, if you want a road car, nothing matches the luxury, refinement, and pleasure of a BMW. That's why I bought the z, cuz I plan to track it occasionally and the z is much more readily configured for the track. If it was strictly for road use only, I would have definitely gone with a 135i or 335i, or even z4, |

Having read all the problems the 135i/335i cars have been having i'd stray away from owning one of those...especially after seeing my friends 3 series fall apart over the past year. |
