who likes the new 350Z

Dark_5.0 · 10-18-2002, 02:08 PM

I think it is an awesome looking car. I dont know how fast it is or if it is worth as much as an 03' cobra but I love the new 350Z's styling.

I really like the new commercial for it. Looks like it's going to be a cool looking car. We'll have to wait and see if it's performance matches it's tough looks.

Someone here quoted it as a low 14 second car in another thread.

the door handles like a sore thumb........

they are ooh-glay.......the rest of the car looks good

As a long time Nissan kid and fan, I am impressed with the new Z. Been following its return since the rumors started, actually since they killed the old one.

There is a touring model car used at the Lexus deal here. Its an auto, but its used, so I should be able to drive it this weekend. With its gears/HP/weight it should be a 14 second car. I'll let you know how it drives hopefully by Monday.

I've seen a half dosen different ones on the road (doesn't hurt to work within 45 minutes of the National Headquarters) but I haven't gotten one to line 'em up with me yet.

Maybe I can find a corporate guy soon.

They are already on the road here in Canada... I've seen a handful of them... I'm assuming they are on the road there aswell?

Here are some specs...
Horsepower 287 @ 6200
Torque (lb-ft) 274 @ 4800

Apparently you can buy it with a Track Pack that consists of
"The Track is the sport trim of the 350Z. Features include Brembo 4-wheel disc brakes, front and rear spoilers and lightweight 6-spoke 18-inch forged alloy wheels"
and that is the most expensive package and it goes for $46,500 Canadian.

Ohh.. and I think it's one sweet looking vehicle.

I have yet to see it. Does anyone have any pics of it? Thanks, Keith

The Deuce · 10-18-2002, 05:17 PM

Now you've seen one.

Kamaro Killer · 10-18-2002, 05:26 PM

It's not that bad. It kinda reminds me of an Audi TT. My dad is a nissan fanatic, I'll bet it won't be long before he gets one. Take care, Keith

jj_jonathon · 10-18-2002, 05:42 PM

heres the door handle....

and depending on the angles..it loks like the lexus roadster, toyota celica, auti tt all in 1...lol

btw.... www.nissanusa.com has all sorts of specs and more pics of it...

The Deuce · 10-18-2002, 05:57 PM

I posted a thread on freshalloy.com asking if any of the guys down here wants to hit a track. I'm thinking the turd would lose, I just want to see them run. I'll let y'all know if anyone is interested.

Acutally, I'll find you a picture of one next to a 240z, and you'll see how it looks like a natural update of the car. Just wish I had taken some picks of my car with one before I sold it.

The Deuce · 10-18-2002, 06:42 PM

Now that's what I'm talking about.

Stang_Crazy · 10-18-2002, 07:04 PM

My neighbor has a new 350Z. She (yes, she ) put her order in way back in February. She's had her Z for AT LEAST a month now. It was the first one I saw. Sliver, stick, really nice!! The only downside is that the lady (early 60's) doesn't know how to drive a stick so when she's leaving her house, all I hear is VROOOOOMMMM and then she starts moving hehe

Personally, I love the new 350Z. A friend of mine is looking at getting one, and if he does, I'll let yall know how they drive.

GONZO99TA · 10-20-2002, 06:22 PM

the new 350z is a nice looking car.
it as gone back to it's roots in my opinion. the price came back to a realistic 26k base price with decent performance and low weight. nissan did a great job.

Crazy Horse GT · 10-20-2002, 06:47 PM

not to bad but, the door handles & the headlights are half the front fender, lol, i back srv1 i'll take the old one.
