Nissan 350Z's. Are they all that?
Discussion
Ive been toying with getting a 330i Touring but they're as rare as adults at Garry Glitters house at the mo. So Ive been lokking at the 350Z, they seem to be great VFM, fast, RWD, good kit etc. So whats the catch? Are they reliable? I know fuel must be quite an expence but how about servicing etc?
Yeah they're great cars and I'm currently running one along with my Ferarri. Since I got it, I do find myself driving the Ferrari less so there must be something good about it! To me it feels solid and well planted and they are quite quick aswell. Don't know about the servicing intervals or costs to be honest but I get about 25mpg combined give or take.
No major issues. Engines are very strong, although the odd 06/07 facelift car can use a little oil (but not in a terminal way).

Bit of a leap from an E46 Touring to a 350z... 
Can't comment on the Z but 8k will get you in a decent Boxster as well. And a 3 litre Z4.

ked. I wouldnt trust a Boxter and I do like Z4's but theres something about the mix of Jap mechanicals the fact that I don't see many 350's about. Do they sound nice?thesyn said:

Nope, flat as a pancake on the standard exhaust, about as exciting as a Nissan Note. If you can find one that already has a decent exhaust system from the likes of Nismo, Greddy etc, it would probably be a big improvemnt.ked.
