zeus12345 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Hi Guys, Great site by the way. Anyway i have been saving for a couple of years now for a second hand 350z and should have enough in about 6 months. I love the look of the car and i see one driving around my area often and it sounds great when accelerating. I just have a few questions to ask as i do not know anyone who one who owns a 350Z. Sorry if the questions seems stupid. 1: Does the 350z have a pull effect on you when accelerating. My previous car was a cougar v6 and even though i really liked my car it never gave me a smile on my face when hitting the acceleration. 2: Is there much of a difference in the performance and feel of the 2003-2005 350z to the 2006z? Reason i am asking is because the 2003-05z seems to fall in the £235 tax band but is the 06Z really worth paying the extra £200 (£435) a year total (Tax Band), just for a few extra BHP, is there a huge difference in the performance/feel of the car? 3: Whats the reliability of the engine like on a Z. My 1999 Cougar seemed to get problems all the time and finanly the head gasket went so i sold the whole car for £300. I have heard that the (z) is a reliable car but when i go to buy one it would be great if you could give a few sugestions on what to look out for. 4: Generally what any of your impressions are after owning the £350z for a while? Soz if these sound like stupid questions but i have my heart set on buying a 350Z and any info would be great. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 along. The things to look out for when buying are very well documented on here. Although it's a two seater it is a car you can buy with your head aswell as your heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
