Supras are and always be Super cars. I dont think that will ever change.
I do not think 350'z will fade as a was hot car. IMO Z32's are still on the hottt list. Just not on the same playing field as MKIV's.
Its a clean line car. I do not think it will see the was hot list

i love my Z, I will probably look at the 350z the same way i look at mk IV supras today. wow. I care nothing about what ppl say about how the Z is just a 30k car. You cant deny the striking looks that imo will last for a long time.

on the other hand, I think the looks of the new GT-R and the G35 coupe will grow out more quickly.
Bravo! I agree completely. And it's all relative. An informed person, IMO, will consider the 350Z timeless. John Doe, i.e., someone who just doesnt care about cars, will care less.

It's a simple driver's sportscar...it will always be timeless as long as there is road.

Can't say the same about the fickled nature of status or luxury cars.

I regularly get the "wow! what kinda car is that?" comment so I don't think the Z33 will be headed for the has-been category any time soon.

Are you aware of the definition of a super car?

I did not read all of the 3 pages, but just look @ 911. The z car falls in the same category. Timeless!

I think it really depends if the person is an auto enthuthiast or not. To me, even today I still think the 240Z looks hott.
Cars I think still looks great even today:93+Supra, S2000, 240Z~280Z, S13, S14 Kyuki, RX7 both FC and FD, E30 M3, NSX, ITR, crx.... and all old Ferraris, porches! All the above cars I would still love to own.

Good cars are always "hot" to people who are informed about cars. And everyone else is too ignorant to be concerned their opinion on the matter anyway. If teenagers on the internet decide that the 350Z is "teh lam3" I could care less.
Best post in this thread.

I like Performance (first) and style. The PT crusier lacks both.

If the Z looked like one, I might as well consider a cartoon car like the Evolution or STI.

Timeless Classic









I've thought about selling it for the new 08 M3 or GT-R when it comes out, but part of me is thinking I should just keep it.... Don't drive it much since I use my FX35 for all my daily stuff, so it only has 4800 miles on it. But its a lot of fun to drive on the weekends up a mountain road

If it drove just as well, yes. However if the PT cruiser drove as well as the Z it probably wouldn't have the same stigma as it does now.
