Is it just me . . .
. . . or does the Z's profile remind anyone of the Porsche 911?
I'm not saying Nissan ripped them off, but in my opinion, the Z looks even better than a 911. I think most Porsches (except for the GT2) are ugly.

LOL. This explains my infatuation w/ the Z. I've been trying determine which daily I want next, and the Z is at the top of the list. (You've probably seen that in some other threads)
Anyway, here's my fun car:
(pic from when I got it new)
This shows the back end, and yes, I think it's similar to the Z
Anyone have over head shots of the Z? It would be interesting to compare:

This is the closest thing to overhead shot I have.
I am not even gonna pretend to say that my Z is just as sexy as the 911. The Z has a couple lines I like better, but the 911 turbo is so sweet! I like the price on the Z better but I know I would get a 911 turbo if I had the money.

Love Porches but today in the morning someone parked a Ferrari 360 in the parking garage at my work. I WAS LIKE.... damn it... out of ALL days I had to leave my digital camera at home today.... ARGHHHHHH.
wildone_106 if you read this go down to the lowest level of parking garage and check it out. I was drooling over it for 5 min. at least.

I road race quite a bit and do a lot of other things with PCA.
I'm a moderator on at 6speedonline.com and funcarsonline.com as well. I just like 'em.
I also really like the Z however which is why I'm here. I'm thinking of getting one or a G35 for a daily driver.
I used to have a BMW 330 and sold it, so I'm looking for a replacement for it.
The Z is just so darn pretty. I was driving behind one home from the airport yesterday. I kept speeding up and checking it out then dropping back. I really like it from the back although I know others think that's the most boring part.

I have seen them on the track with me, and I'm always captivated by its look. I really like the way they look. I also remember from driving it, that I really liked the turn-in. It's very precise and easy to control. Also, the interior and the seats are exactly what sports car seats should be. The seats of the Z are much better than my seats I can say that for sure.
When I get a longer drive of one, I'll give a more detailed write-up. Also, I'll see if I can dig some old footage of chasing a Z around Texas World Speedway and post that.

I was in my previous 911, a 2002 996 C2.
When I test drive a 350 and really run it, I'll post another thread regarding my thoughts.
