An interesting read... i've enjoyed some of the banter too.. but where the credibility of Mr Nervous falls short IMO, is saying the 350z is the worst handling car he's ever driven. He's either not driven many crappy cars, or he's enjoying yanking some chains! Maybe the 350z has been the most disappointing to drive?

Guffy - you're bang on there mate. He may not like it (ok fine) but saying it's the worst handling he's driven smacks of trolling/attention seeking.

BTW the seemingly valid question of what sort of company the 350Z keeps down at the bottom of the worst cars you've ever driven list seems to have been side-stepped. I for one am intrigued.
You know it isn't a bad car - when people make dumb comparisons with tanks. This reminds me of the historic Civic Type-R thread when people were comparing a hot-hatch with TVRs and V8-engined cars; because that's exactly the sort of objective comparison that one makes when choosing a car [not].

Top Gear and co. seem to like the 350Z, and that's good enough for me. It does similar lap times to the old M3 so it's hardly slow, even if it feels a bit lardy. And the 313GT is supposed to be alot better. I'd have one over an Audi TT.

Haha! I had a nosey at this thread earlier today and it was only a few pages long... how funny! Can't people just have different opinions? Me, I change 'em all the time!

PS, I wanted a 350Z last month, found one and went to drive it with the intention of buying it if it wasn't a lemon, but the dealer reckoned I should try an M3 first... my god that 350Z felt slow afterwards. And don't get me started on the interior...

the 350z is honestly the sttest car I've ever driven. hugely over-rated. if you want to be dragged along by a headache that feels like its going to high-side at any moment, by a jet ski and drive it on ice.
In fairness, that's arse.

I drove your Sagaris. And that makes my top 3, along with a Proton Jumbuck and Hyundai Terracan.

ETA. In fairness the CityRover was quite bad. So we'll call it top 5 to allow for some contingency.

I might offer a response if only I could establish what on earth the point is you're labouring to make.

So I've got to go away and drive some unspecified vehicles and then come back and tell you that you were correct about some unspecified fact?

I tell you what. I'll get right on it. Sounds like a fulfilling assignment.

Are you always this literal?

I must say it's a devastating arguing technique. Go you.

i'm actually offended that you called my response too dull in a thread where you are saying a 350z is not too dull.

that's it, me and you, its over, that's whey below the belt dude, sort it out

edit, i'm taking that as a win, another one, one of the many, all that, etc
