+1 to above.
Plus, I like the adjustable dash height. Major turn on during the test drive.

The engine with the pop charger whistle and the Nismo exhuast note. Also love downshifting and the ride quality. Plus the trip computer... my best friend and how my NAV system has a lady voice.

Have to agree. It's all about the roofline baby!!!! Exhaust note is right up there. Radio? What's a radio?

A friend of mine and her son were leaving a restaurant and saw a red Ferrari parked outside. The owner was very friendly and let the boy sit in his car also. The owner was Tom Selleck.

+1 The rear end of the car is the nicest part of the body. Also the sexy eye lines with the bumper and fenders just melts my heart every time I look at my fairlady

The stares, the mouth drops, the head turns, the following heads, the grins, the goggling, the girlfriend in the BMW passenger seat staring at your car while her boyfriend pretends he doesn't see you.

There are many things that I love about my Z. One thing is that it reminds me of a Japanese Superbike.

Yeah, that the best encounter. Except, the girl was looking at the car, then me, then the wife (she didn't know that). I just sat there and smiled.

LOL !!!

On Saturday, we were coming back from Camping World (parts for RV) and a Ferrari come up at 85-90mph or so. We were just cruising enjoying each other, it slowed down, a bit, and then when the owner saw his girl looking over he sped it right back up.

Now, I figure that was a compliment. The wife just grinned. I laughed. She sees everything in her rear mirror the way I have it adjusted.

Ah, nothing better than having a hot chick and a nice car!

We'll maybe it's the nephews coming over and sitting the seats making car noises and pretending they are racing the car. They are so funny especially when I give them the helmets to wear. I am going to have to get pictures of that next time.

"One thing is that it reminds me of a Japanese Superbike."

Interesting observation. I've said many times the Zzz strikes me in "feel" as being a 4 wheel version of my 1981 Honda 900 F; suspension, ride quality, power band, etc.

And the F was far & away the best bike I ever owned.

and now .. what is a little thing you hate about 350z. I would go for the stick shift. I missed shift from 4th to 2nd once, changed to B&M and never miss-shift again.
