As many of you know I was battling with a choice of many cars comparable to the twins. The twins are great cars, will never hate them for what they are. However that being said I was always looking for something more. Test drove the new mustang GT, boring in the corners. Test drove the s2k, but wanted it to be a bit faster. Plus with that car, I was not comfortable at all with the seating positions. Test drove a 370z randomly and fell in love. Gives me the handling response close to (but more mature) than the twins and gives me the power I am looking for. I will always love the toyobaru, but I think the Z is where I belong. Doesn't mean I'm leaving you guys though

Dad has a 2015 nismo. Drove my brz and his nismo back to back..

Congrats on your purchase either way

huh?

To me the Z and FR-S/BRZ are completely different but nice to drive in their own aspects.

Good job OP for buying what you like and not what everybody says you should like!

And so it begins...

I'll just sit this one out and watch from the bleachers.

Congrats on your new car. As long as you are happy with your decision all should be fine.

Did you own a BRZ or FRS before?

Special_K · 05-26-2015, 12:39 PM

Congrats man!
How does the 370 interior space compare to a 350? My roommate has a 350, and I really like it, but I honestly can't fit in it comfortably for over and hour. And forget about heel-toe! My legs were so tight against the wheel I had to put lube on them just to be able to turn.

Test drove a 2015 Nissan 370 Nismo.

Was pleasantly surprised, IMO much improved over previous Nismo editions.

Dealer had 3 Nismo Z's on the lot not to mention 15+ regular Z's.

Tried to make a deal with them but they refused to go lower than $43k on the Nismo and treated me like shit when I explained why I would not pay more than $39k for one.

If they had not been such assholes I might be driving one right now but instead I went next door and bought a C7 Vette.

On point, congrats the Z is a nice car.

Still a pretty sweet end result you have there.
