I have a 09 370Z and love it! Best street car I've ever had.... but it needed $10k in random upgrades to really make it shine. (clutch, flywheel, oil cooler, full breather mods etc...)

Ive had a:
91 Toyota Pathfinder
77 Datsun 280Z
89 Toyota forerunner
97? Toyota Exterra

I loved all these cars. The only car I've ever owned and hated was a 94 Ford probe that my Ex dumped on me...

Toyotas are rock solid. Nissans are diamonds in the rough but really amazing cars.

I have owned and loved both, but if you want solid and reliable go with Toyota. They run forever with no hassles.

Of course they don't make racers. I've driven the FRS. It is nimble and light... and weak like a Miata. Don't kid yourself that it compares in any way with a 370.

I've driven only Toyota's minus a Dodge Dakota as my first vehicle. Last one being a Toyota Tacoma I traded in on the Z. I do miss that truck.

oops that was a *Nissan* Pathfinder... with a bent frame from driving it into a USMC 2 man fighting hole during training in Quantico Va. I only had it 2 weeks before I bent it grrr. Even though it was never quite straight, it was a great truck.
