Ive been reading this web site for a while in the view to getting a 3R instead of my lotus, but in the mean time ive bought a 350Z as a daily driver and in July i asked if anyone knew anything about them and i got some advice, well picked it up this week and if anyone is thinking about gettng one Do It!

They are really good, very nice handling, wonderful V6 - sounds the Biz, actually very quick (not noble quick!). Great quality. Good driving position, and in my opinion great value + they hold their price very well.

Down side is that its big and has a bad drinking habit. Next car is now the noble.

Not had the pleasure of trying one yet. Are you considering the supercharger?

Edwardo, hope you become Nobility soon but let me tell you that in "spirited mode" Nobbly likes a good drink too! :-)

Yep I got 17mpg going on a blat through rural Essex last weekend. That was including a fair bit of motorway though to get there. Was probably more like 14mpg for the blatting part.

Dan ive seen the super charger article in Evo but with the bonnet bulge thing im not convinced looks a bit chav in my opinion and as a daily drive theres no need really as its powerful enough. The tourque is great ive never driven a big straight 6 before but am totally converted now!!!

nathan - yep im not a car techy - v6 it is.

Dan - what i meant really was that 287bhp to sit mostly on the m25 is more than enough, plus im used to cars that have much less power i.e. the elise.
