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!

Did you drive a white one? because I spotted one near Queensborough Landing

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

Very nice.

looks better than a corvette, at least.

auto rev match shit is extra.

I like the steering wheel and the gauges, I say it's pretty decent except the shift knob. lol

rear running light? you mean one in the middle? I thought U.S or Canadian model won't get one of those? :confused:

GordonTse 05-03-2009 10:08 PM

wow, so late. my dealer got first 370z awhile ago.

civic0501 05-04-2009 01:06 PM

Does anyone know what invoice is on the 370z?

Thanks

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..

Canada: YES
USA: NO
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!)
:(

The 370z also starts at $29,000 in the US.

shenmecar 05-05-2009 03:30 PM

i guess its cuz their market is bigger?

Iceman-19 05-05-2009 04:24 PM

auto blip feature is for morons that dont know how to drive. i would never get that on any car. i can do it myself just fine.

Yeah, and I think it would be a pain in the ass to adjust to! I would probably always forget about it and try and do it myself anyways..

^^ You can turn the auto blipping on/off with a button.

Iceman-19 05-05-2009 11:04 PM

Oooor, you can order one without it and save money and not be a poser.

thats pretty much a base touring 6spd then. no bigger brakes or wheels. cuz the 7spd auto already comes with revmatch.
