thinking of switching to an 06-07 Z06

Besides, I can't find a Z on a lot without scratches almost through the clear already. So there are your 2 major QC issues with both cars, imo: 370Z has a great interior, but needs a paint-job. The Z06 has awesome paint, but needs better seats. Several 370Z formers have already stated the material/fit are equal in the newer Z06's to the 370Z. I don't quite think so, but then the Z's I drove were apparently freaks as they didn't rattle or have a single sqeak, and I see people on here whining about that all the time. I think part of it is people "see what they expect", basically.

I remember when the 350Z came out and everyone said my WS6 was crap and had a horrible interior. So I rode in a 350Z my friend had. It had scratches all in the plastic door panels, no leather inserts like my WS6, rattled WAY worse with only 1/2 the miles my car had, and in general was just a piece of junk. Yet all I read about online was "my shitty american car is made of plastic and the 350Z is so nice." FFwd a few years and now we have "The 370Z is so nice and the 350Z sucks and blah blah blah". So really, it's just perception. Go drive/look at/sit in both and then form your own conclusion about whether or not it works for you.
