3 month old 350Z was totaled :(...and another puzzling problem
I bought an 05 Orange 6-speed 350Z 3 months ago, and 2 days ago it was just totaled. I had to swerve from being t-boned from a person who was running the red light...I swerved, fish tailed, lost control, did 360's and went off the road into the ditch and my car is officially ****ed 
But what I dont get is...Ive made incredibly sharp turns after way faster speeds and the thing handles perfectly...this time i was going at 30 MPH or a lil slower and lose total control of the car.
Also...this car is quite weird, I've been looking on these boards and they say the Z tops out at 159, yet I have hit 170 on an interstate, with a friend in my car,....so whats up?
I have done no performance mods to the car. The only thing that was done was the Pioneer AVIC-N1 DVD/TV/GPS System, also XM Radio, Custom built sound equipment, and underbody leds

Not all roads are consistent, you'll get traction difference on all types of roads. Another possible reason is a small amount of dirt patches dusting up the road.
