Like Gan San(Best Motoring International) said that the new Z is not necessary he would call a sport car. It is made for people who enjoy driving sport cars with automatic......The new Z is a touring car maybe, but it is definitely not a true sport car.....
When Gan San said something about cars, I think we should listen.

WRONG.
However, I have never driven one. But there is something just not right about it.

Regarding the 350Z's, there are a ton for sale in my area (Columbus, OH). Personally, I like the car. And this is a car I have driven. My brother owns one and has demonstrated on numerous occasions how cable the car is.
I chased a 350Z at Mid Ohio and had a real tough time keeping up. Granted, it was a nicely modified, caged example. They are impressive whether we like to admitt it or not as S2k owners.

Over here in cinci, I see more RX8s than 350z and S2000s combined. I have been starting to see more 350z lately though, but the new mustang is EVERYWHERE. I already see more mustangs than all 3 of those cars combined.
I only see 1-2 s2000 a week here.

The 350Z is probably a good car and with big sales will develop a good aftermarket. They sell a lot of automatics like Corvette. S2000 sales would have been bigger if they had offered one. That's why the Vetts and 350Z's have a lot of female drivers. The 350's had some major front tire wear/alignment issues. I assume they will have fixed that by now. They are also not as fast or certainly not faster than a stock S2000 and definitely do not handle as well in stock form. One of the things I really like about my S2k is that in stock form the suspension is about like many other cars after u they upgrade theirs.

350Z is certainly comparable to the S2k in performance.
