Selling a Z is like breaking up with your boyfriend. For the first 6 months you remember exactly why you broke up. Then late one night, couple years later, after a few glasses of wine you think back about what a great guy he was. And girl "you be dialing that phone".

Amazing how many people who sell their Z, end up owning another one a few years later.

So true. I sold mine in 07 and bought another one in 08. I'll never go back to my boyfriend though.


Just kidding about the boyfriend part. We're back together. Seriously, just kidding about that part.

LOL. Trading a car because it has a rattle. Might as well compile a list of cars you want to have for the next year because if a rattle makes you trade, you'll be trading often.

Come on guys, I was thinking of doing the same thing. It makes this weird growl when I turn it on, a bit of roaring when I hit the gas, and this damn thumping noise when the radio is turned up... I really hate all that, gonna get a Prius so there is NO noise what-so-ever...

good luck man hope you find your peace and quiet...

Trade a Z for an SUV? WHY?!?!?!?!? That's like me trading a motorcycle for a bicycle.

Rattles dont show up in just 4 months so make sure to do a test drive next time you buy.

I kinda agree about the rattle - I dropped two screws in some mysterious hatch hole when installing my spoiler LOL.

No but seriously - in 25,000 miles I had two repairs - one was a bad window motor/regulator.

the other was a completely **** rear axle and wheel bearing.

BTW - riddance LOL.


all in all my Z has been an AWESOME car - could have never imagined this level of performance for 27K

Should've just got a 370Z.

Heck, apart from the cheapness, my 350Z was fairly reliable.
