is very low! They gave it a 7 where as the user review is a 9.5. I just found this kind of surprising. I thought the expert reviews from when the 350z first came out was quite a bit higher.

Did they change their minds?

 

Haha, have they ever driven the car on a twisty road and compared prices to anything that compares performance wise?

 

+1 hahah experts my ***. A two year old kid has more sense than that guy.

 

Did you read the full review? A 25th Anniversary model? Did this clown do his homework at all. Wide heavy doors? That's a first. Lack of storage space? That cracks me up. It is a 2 seat sports car!

 

Look at that 9.5 user rating for the truth: The Z is a driver's car.

 

whoever they got to review that is a moron. Those are the worst cons i've ever heard for reviewing a car.
1. its a sports car, its going to have a stiff clutch
2. wide heavy doors? does the reviewer have the build of a petite woman?
3. little cargo space? its a sports car dumbass

 

Man, that was a bad review.

 

man the cons are bull****..
clutch is perfect
doors is kind of big but its a coupe
cargo space? its a sports coupe for fack's sake!
if ya cant make simple sacrifices like cargo space why not just get a honda accord instead!

 

Hahah lame old Dan...a 7 just b/c of cargo and long doors...like what the?
I'd understand 8.5 or a 9 but 7 is like

 

+1

 

That was a useless review. It's nothing short of someone walking into a Nissan dealership, get into and out of the Z (while in the showroom), went home and scribble up this review. The CONS list is absurd, not sure if he was expecting a mini-van. Plus starting the article off w/ a serious error gives the review(er) absolutely no credibility.

 

I drove an F body firebird back about 8-9 years ago... THAT had some big, heavy doors. The Z's aren't that cumbersome.

 

I posted this in another thread, but there is a great review for the new 2006 z:

When I purchased a Vette, these guys were down in it for having a small trunk. There criteria does not match mine.

Notice the high score for acceleration and accident avoidance and low score for fuel mileage.

If we followed their advice we would all be driving Accords and Camrys.
