Nissan 370Z Forum  

What other cars are you considering besides the 370Z?

I drove the 135i and left less excited than I was going into the drive. Maybe I should set my expectations lower in the future?

I am waiting for BMW to put the twin turbo 3lt DIESEL engine in their coupe version and hope that they will allow to order it with a manual transmission.................then I will wait for a big block V8 engine to challenge it in a red light.

PS: As an added bonus i will love to get 36 mpg
