It's a mechanical piece of equipment that was built by robots in Japan!!!! Nothing is perfect! Quit being pussies about it and drive your car! A Ferrari isn't perfect... what makes you think a 350Z would be? Waaa Waaa Waaa... I know people that drive Hyundais that don't complain as much as you all do!

Probably because they didn't pay $36k for their Hyundai. If I bought a Hyundai, my expectations wouldn't be that high either.

Owner of my 06 Base for 22 days and loving it. Even with the few things I have noticed about the clutch/gears I still love looking at, getting in, and driving this car. Now I just need to hide the money I am spending on mods from my other half!

Purchased my '06 Z a few weeks ago - so far no problems and have installed NISMO cold air intake and exhaust.
Couldn't be happier with the car!!!

Does anyone else have a little squeak from their clutch pedal just before it's fully engaged? Not that it's a big issue but a little annoying when I want to drive with the windows up and stereo turned off.

My Only complaint so far is the Inferior Paint Quality. Chips way too easy.

Ha Ha Ha I like your thinking! That's almost exactly what I wrote... these guys went out and bought the car they wanted... now deal with it! They made the bed they sleep in but don't really want to sleep in it. Nothing is perfect... but things can be close to being perfect. And the Z is the closest you're gonna get.

Too much attention from cops.
Too much temptation to drive in a manner which attracts attention from cops.
