Car and Bike Talk Discussions and comparisons of cars and motorcycles of all makes and models.

Why do we talk about the 350Z more than the Z4 when the Z4 is closer to the S2000?

Hey YeLLoWs2knVA. No flame intended... but you do realize that 99% of the posters here are MEN. I would rather see your car or a chick under your name.

I don't think Z4 can be there performancewise.
You think wrong. In terms of acceleration it is right in the mix at about 14 flat.

I don't even think Z4 is something to talk about on this thread and waist time.
That's a pretty close minded statement, why do you bother to read the car section of this board then? Any car enthusiast understands that you don't have to hate one car in order to like another.

I too wonder why the comparisons between the 350 and S2000 are more frequent than the Z4 vs S2000. In terms of concept and execution the S2000 and Z4 are both "sports cars" whereas the 350 is a GT. The answer it seems comes down to price. Many folks classify cars not according to what segment they belong, but by how much they cost. I guess it's a fairly understandable concept, but not one that I personally adhere too.

Personally, I am with PedalFaster here. The 350Z is a bloated pig of a car with a cheap plastic feel to it. Where I in the market for a GT would I consider it? Sure, but I would gladly pay more for the real deal, a Z06 or M3. Does that make the 350 a bad car? Nope, just not a car for me.

I think the G35 is dead sexy, but can't get over the interior.

To me that's the best part. What don't you like about the interior?

How does the g35 rate next to an s2000? beats it right? I personally get reved at more by z4 owners than 350z owners, but that probably has something to do with me residing in the same city the BMW plant is located in

Oh no... Please don't encourage this type of behavior. This is an S2000 forum, not a male meat market.
