I've driven six 370Zs in the last year looking for one that flips my switch, but it's just not happening. The one I drove yesterday was a pearly white touring coupe 7AT with only 14K miles in perfect condition. It was REALLY nice for a 370Z, but still not nice enough to get me to switch.

I've come to the conclusion that the 350Z with the HR engine is the best of all the Z cars.

 

Exterior wise the 350 hands down.

 

Duh!

 

I know what you mean.
Realistically,get yourself into a 370,drive it.Its a great car.
A refinement over the original 350 model.The interior is much
more improved.Technically...ditto.However,the exterior stying still
leaves me wanting more.A great design looks good from every angle.
The 370 IMO,falls short.On the other hand,the 350 looks great from
every direction.I gotta to admit that I've warmed up a bit on the
370 body style.Maybe it was just getting used to it?Maybe its just
the stance of the car in stock form.Looks pretty good.But for the most
part,all that are reading my comments have prolly made changes to
their 350 that makes it their "own".Thats why we are all here,right?
If you look at Nissan's(Datsun)track record whenit comes to stying,
they tend to start with a great looking car then start adding "refinements"
that make it less pleasing to the eye.In addition,the GTR has never looked
good to me(does'nt a side view yell Dodge Charger?).I almost bought one this
past year.What a car!The looks just don't do it for me.
Who knows,maybe the next Z platform will be the one?

 

I love the 370z a little bit more in every way, especially the 2013 model without the fangs. However, I just bought my 350 HR about 6 months ago and I absolutely love it as well. If I ever buy a 370, i'll probably keep the 350.

 

I test drove an 09 370 for the first time the other day. Definitely nicer interior... just like how the 350z looks exterior wise.

 

Imo, the 370 is not enough of an improvement over the 350 HR to justify the switch. It is a slight
improvement in every respect except for exterior styling which is subjective anyways.

Maybe its time for something completely different.

 

If you own a 370z would you go back to a 350z? I know I wouldn't even though I like the 350z more.

 

Maybe if you get the Nismo 370.

 

Just not enough to make me want to start all over again.

 

I bought my 08 new and after clear bra, new sound system, and spacers I have her just the way I want her. Having to start all over again, adding at least 2 or 3k just to get it the way I want it just doesn't appeal to me.
I'll keep my paid off 08 HR....

 

just purchased an 07 350z enthusiast over the 370z base sport.

Test drove the 370z for 50miles (extended test drive) manual tansmission, car felt nice and all, but the I found a really clean 350z with low mileage and at 1/2 the price, so yea it's an identical driving experience except for interior quality, which i don't care for.

Honestly I like the 350z gauge cluster much better, love the original fuel gauge instead of this wierd digital 80's crap.

 

I'd take one and build it.

 

With the kind of money you're able to pour into a car id be thinking of something more exotic

 

Exactly my thoughts. That is the same reason I kept my 350. Had a chance to get a GTR, I keep holding back waiting for Nissan to chage the style. It is such an amazing driving machine, it's too bad it's style does not stir the passion.

 

White NismO 370 would be the only way I switch. But I'm almost in the "owner's club" with my 350... I agree with Terrasmak, I don't think I want to start over yet............

I have yet to drive a 370 for fear I will want one... I suppose the lack of white nismos in So Cal helps me there

 

shark attack!

 

Both the 350z and 370z look a bit clunky and goofy from the front 1/4 angle. I think the 370 looks much better from a side profile. However, from a rear 3/4 angle the 350z has got it made.

 

Z33! Z33!!

 

Looking at a 2012 370 Nismo. Haven't driven yet, but I'm on the fence.
