Great choice on the color! I've got a Brickyard with anniversary wheels myself. I have to say you make some great points. My mom just bought a 2014 Mustang GT (coincidentally to celebrate turning 50 haha), and it's a BEAST when it comes to power, but it just doesn't FEEL right driving it. The powerband is odd, to say the least - nothing like the older Mustangs, and the car moves like a behemoth. I'll end up with one in the next couple years because I absolutely LOVE those cars, but the Z is very, VERY hard to get away from haha. Compliments will come to you constantly! I'm always being asked about the color, and people are very shocked to find out it's 10 years old. Enjoy the new ride, man!

Im a 23 yr old single guy dont really have friends or do anything. i just bought my 350z and everyday it puts a smile on my face. look back at the car while walking away and i feel more satisfied in life after saving up money for awhile and buying it cash. its a blast to drive and just cruise around in town. reason i love these cars is because it reminds me of the classic datsun 240-260-280z cars. best car ive ever owned better than my ls1 camaro i had by far

I've had my Z for 4 years now and am at the point of whether I should keep it or trade it in for a 2005 Lotus Elise.

It is going to be a very tough decision. I love the Lotus. The car is just badass. But at the same time I love my Z.

I need to do alot of thinking and quick, I might be in a position to be able to pick up a Lotus this weekend.

I've owned my ZR for only a week and it's not my DD and I every day I leave for work I look at it and say to myself "That's one sexy b!tch"

Also i've lived in my place for over 5 years i've owned a Speed3 and a Z32 and my neighbor never talks to me and now that I have the Z33 he is actually talking to me and telling me how jealous he is and that he wants a Z33 really bad.

I'll be modding soon and I can't wait to get a sweet exhaust and some new wheels on my ride!

I'm also a recently new Z owner and also have a 10 year old Z that looks and drives like new. I get compliments wherever I go!

I love my z and its my dream car.. but has become less practical. I plan on starting a family in the next couple years and don't see how I can safely have a car seat in the z. And the need to have a winter car is costly as well

To any guy who thinks he should get rid of his sports car because he is starting a family… DON'T!!! I made that mistake when I had my first child. I now have 3 kids and another on the way and I will never get rid of my Z.

What? The shape of the 350 is so sexy. It has nice hips and dat ***...It's a look that will last for years to come even when they start making the 420Z in the future lol. The 370 is nice and improved but it doesn't as near as nice as the 350 did and the look of the 370 will probably go out of style before the 350 does.
