i read one 911 owner was talking about the Nissan's fit, finish and reliability issues........and one made fun of the Z's door handles and being ricey....
Well, at least the Z wouldn't cost an arm and a leg to maintain and a Z owner saves at least 50 grands and it turns just as many heads if not more.....
"Life is a giant **** sandwich.......some take bigger bites than others."

*shrug* figured some teenagers sat on anothers lap to get a chance to sit in an exotic.

So one passanger in each car would make 4 people. Where the hell did the other guy come from. What they strapped him on the roof?

Nevermind, you could be right, I searched for totaled cars pics to compliment the porsche accident someone posted and came across that link. Who knows if it's true.

BTW everyone, can we stop starting threads about how Maxima/Eclipse/Sentra/911 or other owners do not like Zs? It is a pretty stupid thing to do. There are many who love Pontiac Aztec too, and would rather have that than a Z. Should we start a thread on them as well?

Someone was saying that this particular year was back heavy (I thought they all were but maybe they meant even more so) and "was great to drive up until things broke free and after that you better be a professional or it would show you who's boss."

I am so fricken sick of people sayin 350z stole lines from this or that... I think most stole lines off the old 240's i have a 240 sitting right next to my 350 and the resemblence is amazing! the roof line everyting from the 350 uses small parts of all the z's... to me the 350 looks like a bad *** 240 with a wide body on it and even more sleek. the 350 looks like nothing else on the road as far as im concerned. every person who sees it say wow ! what kind of car is that ect ect.

I picked a 350Z over a 330Ci because it reminded me more of the 911. I'm the hugest Carrera fan in the world, and I think that if just by coincidence, the 350Z does resemble a 911 in some aspects. It's not a bad thing. My dad still has a 280ZX 1982, and if the cars are next to each other, you can really see certain details that have been kept.

Actually I did not post my comments on the Porsche forum. I just replied through e-mail to a friend of mine and he, the instigator, went ahead and post my comments to him on the Porsche forum. I wouldn't mind driving a Porsche either, but at the current price is just not worth it (unless I win the Lotto ......)
LOL, that's so funny. I am one of the very few that does not like the way the porche 911 looks and I bought the 350Z. I hope people don't think the 350Z's lines look like the 911 because I don't like their lines. The only porche lines I do like is the Boxster and the new Carrera GT because they both don't have the 911 lines.
