Nissan 370Z review by Yahoo Auto

AK370Z · 06-27-2009, 03:33 AM

Okay.. nothing out of ordinary in this review. Everything he says you have probably heard before . I am personally just admiring the blue Z in the twisties

YouTube - 2009 Nissan 370Z

I agree, this car is to be respected a lot more, and parts for it are rare as hell, admittedly so with it's brand new displacement and VVEL system. It's not uncommon to see all a variety of stock, riced, lightly modded, weekend track car to full blown drag racers, supercharged 700rwhp monsters, and even the expensive Shelby custom tune GT500s. You can bang on a Mustang and not pay much, parts are cheap, but with a tuner like the 370Z, I'd be wary of any mod.

EDIT:
Then again this reviewer is gonna get a crapload of flak and various other language thrown at him just for that line.

I think the reviewer wanted to mean that a Mustang is something you'd toss around the room... versus a Z being like a high maintenance girl (god forbid).

I notice your userbox, Korean?

You guys are poor listeners. @ 3:36 he says, "if it's a toy you're after, you're probably better off with a Mustang..."

Yeah, we got that. And the whole "argument" is that you'd mod a Mustang and not give a damn, but with a Z, you'd have to take more care of it.

Better off with a Mustang? No matter what your goal is, you would never be better off with a Mustang or any other car for that matter. I hate all these guys that mention the Z in the same breath as cars like Mustang, Cayman, Z4, etc. Are these guys serious?

I like the review. Really looks like a solid sportscar. They do need to upgrade that stereo though...maybe that was the base (non touring)?

^^+1 on that statement..Buy a 370 if you have the time, money, and love to put into it. Otherwise buy the $20k mustang.
