We're bound to have a repetitive post every now and then.

I just don't understand why most people chase HP in our cars when they can't even drive a stock z at 100% of it's capabilities(not saying you).
Money is better spent on handling mods and learning to drive the car at it's limits on a track.

I've driven some high HP cars on the street and besides getting up to speed faster, they're no more enjoyable to me than my stock z because aside from a country road with no one on it, you can't utilize a fraction of the HP they produce on the street.
That's just my .02
And bith steals my line.

Izz OK.... more where that comes from.

Well for me and ricers like me we like changing things for the sake of being bored and just like to change things. The car has no problem maintaining highway speeds, or getting to them for that matter. Im just trying to differentiate from the retired woman in the zr next to me.

And im pretty sure I complained about the window thing in another thread just like this... but who wants to bump old threads and get no traffic?

Nah, see that's what you hate most, and this is biggest gripe. Completely different stuff....


Kidding, sorry I have failed you

It's so hard to find a class around here that's available. I'm registering for classes in the Spring, along with spending a lot of time at the track though.

How about how everything seems like a project.. Even oil changes are a chore because I can't fit my body under the car.

I wish the doors stayed open. And occasionally I hit my elbow on the E-brake when its set.


Otherwise I love this beast!

Wait, you don't like having your ankles get chopped off? Our doors are long as hell also.

The interior...and the stock radio

I wish we had an interior similar to the 370z.

Some of the z34's interior I feel is of less quality than the z33, i.e. steering wheel, radio/AC controls, shift ****, pedals, kick panels, etc...
It's probably just me though.

I agree 100% with Travlee about the dollar to HP ratio. The one thing I wish the 350Z had is a glove compartment or whatever it's called. I don't know about the newer Z's but my '05 doesn't have one. I guess the compartments behind the seats make up for it though.

The z34 has a conventional glovebox.
It never bothered me that much not having a conventional glovebox.
Then again the only thing I ever stored in the compartment behind the passenger seat were all of the books that came with the car, I keep my insurance/registration in the smaller compartment behind the seat.

I've kept mine in my z since I bought it.
I did add a SiriusXM radio but that's it.
It hurts resale IMO, I look the other way when I see a used car with aftermarket anything.
My Jeep is another story, it has aftermarket everything.

One, a radio shouldnt affect resale.

Second, if youre concern with resale, shouldnt be driving anything over 1k price tag.
