Nissan 350Z

Price Paid:  $1000000.00 from somewhere

Year / Model Reviewed:
2008 nissan 350Z

Summary:
My dad was looking to buy a 350Z, I read some of the reviews, I saw some good and bad ones. I think he still might buy one though. Do you think, if he gets one, it would be ok to drive in rain, sleet, or snow, if he got new tires and put sandbags in the trunk, because he would obviously use it year round.

Strengths:
anything

Weaknesses:
everything

Summary:
Great looking sports car with an excellent price point. I don't think there is a better performance sports car on the market for the money.

Strengths:
Exterior Styling, VQ engine, Brembo Brakes, exhaust note, seat position, rays wheels (19" rears give the car a very aggressive stance).

Weaknesses:
Storage locations (the glove box is behind the passenger seat), center consul armrest could be a few inches higher.

None. This is the first true sports car I've owned.

Summary:
Outside is the bomb. The design is aggressive and very easy on the eyes. Inside is the bomb. New and improved goodies make the run more enjoyable.

Strengths:
New Magnetic Black paint, new 18" wheels, body style, factory UV tinted glass, exhaust note, 6-speed shifter, brakes, clutch, mp3 player, g-force (okay..I got it), fit-and-finish, no squeaks (yet), leg room, gauges, bang/buck factor.

Weaknesses:
BOSE stereo is not ready for prime time. Too much bass and not enough mid-range/lows. Have to tweak the settings again and again. But who cares when you want to hear the engine/exhaust note anyways!

Summary:
I bought this car a yr old and saved a good bit off its new price. I expected the car to be good but had some hesitations due to reading mixed reviews. Bottom line the car is a monster. It is incredible and I love it. I had a Honda Accord before getting this car and after a week of driving this car around I got into my Honda for a quick trip and was shocked about how numb it felt on the road. I put my Honda for sale on craigslist the next day.

This car is great value too. I am amazed at what I get for 26K.

Strengths:
Here is the good:
-car looks awesome
-good power
-good interior quality and design
-engine sounds powerful
-crazy slick suspension
-tight control
-rims look awesome
-the attention this car gets
-value
-the trunk is surprisingly useful considering how much complaining you see in the reviews

Weaknesses:
the bad:
-OEM tires are Summer tires only (I just replaced mine for $1K w/ All Seasons, even though they had lots of miles left)
-car is really loud, louder than you might imagine, but it's a sports car
