Exactly, Brant. Good weather, no top...

Besides, you won't be looking back too much!

 

Good weather? I'm not sure that's even a criteria for me...

 

Brunt I just had to take the Tahoe down to the dealer in Issaquah I let Ky role the S behind me and guess what we saw on E Lake Sammamish???????? YOU GOT IT A BLACK MIATA YOUR MODEL YEAR WITH A HARDTOP ON I was cranin my neck thinkin maybe you had come back early guess not We also had a 350Z pull out n get along side of Ky so I was doin a double take in the rear view checkin the front end comparison I think I'll keep the S

 

Geez...you never let ME drive the S...

Nope, I'm still down here in Tacoma braving the storm! The winds here are steady at about 15mph lately with gusts as high as about 35mph!!

There was a 350Z sitting at one of the stereo shops I visited yesterday, so I got to look at it up close and my conclusion...

I REALLY don't like that car. I mean, put the engine in something else, but even if I won that car in a drawing...I'd take the cash option instead.

 

Yeah, after test driving one, I agree even more. I thought I would really like it, but it just didn't do much for me. Too heavy.

 

I was talking to a friend the other day and we both agree that we still like the old 300Z better than the new 350Z from a design perspective.

Throw the new motor in the old car and then come talk to me...

 

The last gen Z was great, but it was too expensive. Cryin' shame.

I don't dislike the new shape though, guys. Sorry to disagree... I think it actually looks pretty neat (from the beltline up), though I think it looks bulky at the bumper level.

Everyone seems to agree that it's "heavy" compared to the S.
