I haven't driven the 370Z but I did try out the 350Z so I can't quite chime in on how they might differ
I spend a lot of time on the 370z forum and I never see posts about engine getting louder with age, feeling sloppy, getting "tired" etc. The main complaints are: oil heating up too fast on the track without an oil cooler and brake fade on the track without upgrades. Those 2 issues WILL need to be addressed if you plan on tracking a Z.
