Rear wiper?? WTF

AestheticCM1 · 12-20-2013, 12:59 AM

This guy's Z has a rear wiper. Is that a foreign model thing?

European and Japanese 370Z's have to have them.

Everywhere besides the US models. And headlight washers.
And every model in Canadia comes with the VSLD. And the Australian cars don't come with Rays

I wouldn't mind having one. My old 300ZX had one.

Rain X all the way! I see so much better at night especially when it rains without my wipers than I do with them on.

There were a lot of people who complained about the rear wiper on the 350z forums but I liked mine and wish I had one for the 370. It's not a huge issue but comes in handy at times.

If the rain hits the back window - you are driving too slow.

Same here.
I get so much crap and corruption on my rear window, especially in the winter, so that it's kind of difficult to see at times.

kenchan · 12-20-2013, 05:40 PM

i dont get any crap on my rear glass.

wheee! · 12-20-2013, 05:43 PM

The Canadian models only come with VSLD in the Sport Touring model. Base model is open diff....

I'd love for my Z to have a rear wiper. My previous car didn't have one and it was such a pain when it was raining and I had to park.

Thank goodness for rear view cameras now though
