What is nissan thinking?
I hate them.
Go talk to honda, the S2000 hasnt ever had a power increase.

The Z handles pretty well, and its a somewhat balanced car from factory, Power isnt everything. 306 out of the box from a 3.5L isnt to bad

Though the new body work is ugly as sin, its still somewhat functional

i love how you assholes flame me for driving a honda. obviously i'm a fan of the Z and am just dissapointed. 306 from 287 isnt a huge leap in hp, and 'm pretty sure i read the automatics are still putting down 287 (like anyone cares about hte autos). just saying when i hear motorsports i think horsepower and i'm disapointed this is what nismo came up with.

back on topic.the car is ugly.they need to stop coming out with these "versions" of the 350z that just add front lips and spoilers with no true power increase.if they came out with a version in the us with fully adjustable nismo suspension and a turbo kit it would sell faster.
+/-450hp z>306hp z with ugly lips/spoilers.

edit:gt-s is exactly what I mean.gt-ftw
your retarted, sounds to me like your saying the SAME thing as him.. he did rag on nissan. he just wanted to see a power increase with it. which is the same thing you just said, right?
