| drove a 370z!
car just came in from the boat.
I really wasnt a fan of the styling from pictures but after seeing it in person i've changed my mind (except for the red rear running light).wheels are so nice and interior is deffiently better then old.
after the PDI i drove it but didn't bag it since its not my car, but the auto blipping feature is pretty sweet! you can downshift from anygear (ex 4-2) and the comp will perfectly blip for you everytime regardless of speed or rpm's. you can even hold the clutch in for a little bit longer and it will still rev match...pretty trick!

The interior is damned plush for a 2009 car man. It feels like a 1992 car (if you know what I mean)
Very nice.

read about the auto rev match feature in the magazine and i must say that its a very good feature indeed...however the way i see it is that new cars nowadays and cars that will be released in the future are now making too many features that take away driving excitement...the auto rev match feature is very very handy thing no matter what style of driving your doing (dd, spirited, track) but its just not the "thing" for me yet
take the r35 for example...its a great car overall despite its shitty tranny but even if i had the money i'd choose any of the older models over that one since i think that the r35 drives u instead of u driving it..in other words.. BORING..

also in the USA you can get it with no leather (cheaper) and with many more interior/exterior color combos (ie. White exterior with orange interior... Yumm!)
