some cars have oil consumption, rear hatch shocks, we are having problems with our steering wheel lock 09-11 the 12's dont have this system in place anymore. aside from that people complain about oil temps but that was also solved in 2012.

I think I'm one of the handful of people that don't mind the fangs.

The '13+ look shoulda came out first, they went *** backwards with that design.

I have a 2009 Black 370 and with the darker colors you don't even notice the fangs. Steering wheel lock probablem has just been solved over at the 370z forums. There is and independent fuse for the lock. Takes about 10 minutes to get to the fuse and simply remove it.
