Default ITT: convince me that the 370z sucks.

In just a few months my 5th year anniversary with my 2005 z33 will take place.

In a nutshell It's been an amazing car from the beginning; a modest, comfy sports car that didn't put an enormous dent in your wallet whether it would be for mods, repairs or even fuel.

Well just like all all love stories, it seems mine is just about to hit the fork in the road.. Just recently at my local Nissan, I ran into a 2010 370, black with the sweet potato colored seats (persimmon I believe?) It's black with all the bells and whistles, navi, camera, power seats, sports pack, trollface, etc.

Only problem I have with the car is the looks, I haven't really gotten a good look at these cars until the day I went to go look at dealer. While parked next to my 350 the design just didn't make any sense to me. Some angles look great, others make me think of boomerangs. Regardless, the interior is pretty top notch. My only gripe being the strange info pod next to the tach and how one my center pods is wasted by being a clock.

The 350 has been an amazing car throughout the years and never has it given me any headaches or any problems till now, I would love to keep it but I don't have the means to keep both cars, so only one can stay. Plus the 350 almost has 120k miles on it and the interior smells like hotdog water after it rains.

So dear brethren, convince me to stick with the 350 and to leave the 370 behind!

personally i dont like the 370z for the same reasons. The 370z body design just isn't as nice as it could be. I would say stick with the 350z and maybe spend the money toward refurbishing the engine?

If you want the car payment , go for it. If you still enjoy your 350Z, keep it and play with it.

I havn't got a 370Z because i don't feel like starting over.

If you're not totally in love with the 370Z, don't buy it. You owe it to yourself to have a sports car that makes you want to look back and stare at it everytime you park it. That's why my next car probably won't be a Z, unless Nissan comes out with an exterior I actually like.
