Actually, that car belonged to a friend of mine who lives in NW Arkansas. He bought it new and did all of the mods. He's had it at Branson Z Fest the past several years but this Spring he traded it at this dealer for a new 370Z. Tim had the red 370Z at this years Branson Z Fest.

Re. the auto transmission, he has a bad knee and hip which pretty much prevents him from driving a M/T.

How does an automatic car double your power? Im just saying, I COULD NOT drive one unless I had a limiting factor, i.e. this owners case, still a VERY nice car!

I worded that badly. just saying, his car's about twice as powerful as mine or yours :P

nothing wrong with having a preference, just silly to bag on autos these days with how much tech goes into them. different driving experience for sure..

Basically that car is not a 350Z anymore. Does the guy have a mod-flu virus?

LMFAO. Why isn't the car a Z anymore? Tons of people on this forum have the body kit. You're saying you're an expert at judging if Z's are qualified to be Z's?

Personally, I would never own a sports car without a manual. There's just something more visceral about shifting that you don't get from an automatic. I always felt like I was being driven rather than doing the driving.

I also think the car is a bit of a disaster. Too many mods that I don't care for. I'd have to take a pass on that thing.

I will say some of that car was done right, but WHY would you do all that and spend all that money on an automatic????

Did I mention bodykit?. Do you even know the car we are talking about?. My point was, with that many mods, the car is transformed into someting different. I don't mean anything negative.
