Phonetic - the way Yanks say "Nissan" comes out as "Neeeeesan"

Odd chaps.

 

I think Pussycat tested one today.

 

I saw a couple on the road in Europe last month. Looked

Not seen any here tho.

 

It's Ni san in Japanese.

It's we brits who speak like written Hebrew; with no discernable vowels! The septics are more accurate in fact.

Depends whether one says FolksVagen & BorkVart or Volkswaggn & Bowgwawd or Paree or Paris, I suppose.

 

I had a look round one, didn't like the look outside (looks like a 350 with a bodykit) and the interior was a mismatched mess of styles, switchgear and trim materials.

Was enough to put me off wanting a test drive, even thought i could get one for

 

I really dont like this

Call me a old fashioned but I want to do this myself and don't want a computer doing it perfectly for me; I want to cock it up myself

 

I like the look and style of the 370.

Be good to see if there are any deals on this car

 

IKWYM!

But most numpties cannot change gear at all, yet won't buy a slushbox. It's great for when one feels lazy, too.

It's a FRED like ESC or ABS, that actually serves a purpose.

 

I have a soft spot for the marque going back to the Datsun 240Z in the seventies however the 370Z did not impress when tested at Goodwood recently against the Evora by Autocar.

Know you lot are touchy about comparisons. I make no apology as the comparison was not my choice.

"This car is a long way from gelling as it should, or even as well as the 350Z."

"It simply feels forced, effortful even leaden."

".... feels as if it made from felled lumber. Heavy steering, a resonating engine, a snatchy ride and a physical experience that makes you work twice as hard ...."

"The 3.7 litre V6 engine strains and groans like an old army Bedford mud-plugging with artillery hooked to its tail."

"the Nissan, alluring as it is, feels as old-school as a slide rule."

The Zed has good brakes though.
