Who gives a flying F*ck if the bluetooth will or will not work. Ya need to be driving not talking on the dang phone anyway . I have had way to many close calls B/C of some idiot who is on the phone. And IMO it dose not matter if it's hands free or not. talking on the phone + driving = distractions and accidents.

the car is for driving not talking on the phone.

Sorry if i offeneded any one but i got ran off the road this morning by a lady merging while on the phone and then i read this.

No Offense But...
Thats the point of bluetooth. Its safer, no juggling a handset,that where the danger comes in, trying to turn, shift, AND talk while holding a cell, By your logic we shouldn't have stereos or talking passengers either.

Have to agree. The hideous drivers will always find a way to drive in a way that seems to wish me off the road.

Bluetooth is the first way to use a phone somewhat safely in a car I think.

What's up with certain phones not working? I thought bluetooth was a compliant standard

If you go to http://www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth/ you will see that there is a list of supported phones.....they do not support all Bluetooth enabled phones...I have a Sanyo Bluetooth..it is not on the list of supported phones

Lists of supported devices are the equipment that the tester had available to work with. When my group tests software we do the same thing but that doesn't mean another configuration would not work. We just didn't get one. Try yours and it might work.

Bluetooth version is the key. A system optimized for BT 2.0 will often not work with BT1.0 phones, albeit most are backwards compatible. Doesn't seem to be the case here.

I am starting to believe that the hood hump is not exactly made to clear the new engine ,but just as a design queue from the original Z cars. I am actually thinking that the original hood from the 06' will fit the 07'.

Why do I say this? This is the same engine, yet notice the vented hood, and the vents go inward, not outward. The profile of this hood matches that of the 06'.

a) There is a hump in the middle of that hood, but it isn't as pronounced.
b) Isn't that the 380RS? In which case it isn't the same engine.

THIS is the version NISMO 3.5L

It also looks like from the pics that 07s have 180mph speedo. Can anyone confirm this? Now I'd be able to tell if I'm going 163 or 165.

NO Offence taken man. It's just that the lady who ran me off the road this morning was useing Bluetooth. And i know this for a fack cause as i was traveling in to the ditch i happened to look over and see her adjusting this little flashing blue light that was on her left ear (BLUETOOTH) And as for the raido and the passengers well hell i will scare them silent and i have no excuse for the raido. But i still think phones should be used while stopped. And i am by no means an angle when it comes to this but if i can stop i will make the attempt.

somehow
I wished for start engine button and a remote key with metal key inside
like current g35s. That would end my dilemma LOL.
So guys, do you think 07 350z will be much faster than the 07 g35 sedan?
Personally, I don't think Z will be that much faster than the sedan.

Default '07 350z spotted

I went to my monthly 350z club of florida meeting tonight at Autoway Nissan Of Brandon (Tampa.) To my surprise they had two '07's that just arrived one convertable and one coupe. The exhaust IS NOT duel. The only exterior differences I could see were the hood (not too bad IMO) and the valve stems on the wheels are blue?? Sorry pics aren't that great. But I think they are the first of an '07 here in the states.
