Anyone here daily drive their 350z?
Yepp not a single day i dont drive the Z..Im smiling each morning as im walking to it. :] As for the blind spots..Its going on 2 weeks since I bought my Z. I noticed it..but you conquer it pretty quick..and I agree with other members saying it does help you become a great driver. Checking all mirrors and looking over your shoulder each time.
i drive it everyday. i plan on buying snow tires and continuing to drive it through a good ol' midwest winter. hell im even going to drive it to colorado when i go skiing in Feb!
bought it to drive not to sit in the garage and have the roommates scratch it as they walk by cause they dont pay attention, oh wait that already happens :P

oreo the Z is a nice car.. but it sure as hell isn't a lambo..
I daily drive it every day. 2005 with almost 40k miles on the odo.
blind spots don't annoy me.. I just avoid changing lanes as much as possible.

Even with snow tires a few inches and it's dead because its so low to the ground. Now it's a different when the road is plowed isn't it?
Don't play smart with me I always win.
I wouldn't drive my Z during the rougher winter months when snow and ice are involved (I have a Jeep Cherokee 4WD for that--though I won't deny that I'd much rather have a Nissan Murano
). Otherwise, I drive my new Z every chance I get, every day.
I did notice the "blind" spots the first time I actually sat in a Z in a showroom and took one for a test drive, but with the driver and passenger seats and mirrors properly adjusted (and knowing when to take a quick glance with the turn of your head), you adapt quickly and it's not a problem.
The Z has a tendency to force you to raise your situation awareness when behind the wheel--which is actually a good thing compared to some vehicles that may lull you into a false sense of security and laziness by relying only on your mirrors.

[QUOTE=blazed54]DD and no problem with blind spots if your mirrors are set correctly. If i don't see a car in my sideview mirrors, then they're either right next to me where they can't be missed, or it's clear.
