Trust me, it's going to sell quick just the way it is, huge torque curve and all.

i walked around a gold one at the concourso italiano....also blue infiniti coupe.......lose the door handles quick!!!!
its certainly interesting but still underwhelming. and not because it was surrounded by the greatest cars of all time(concorso italiano, monterey historic roadraces, pebble beach concours d'elegance). christies auctioned a used car for $5,900,000.00, some old red thing
the dodge razor is hot...someone post and start a thread.

I'm hearing many s2000 owners saying that if you need advise about which car to get then don't bother getting the S and get the Z. It's easy for owners to say that who have purchased the car a year ago when there was no other cars for 30 grand. I too can relate to this dilemna and can understand how difficult the decision process is; espeacially because of the possibility of a 2nd gen s2000 or s2200...

Looked over 350z pretty close on dealer showroom floor. My wife and I loved it. Was told 14000 imported a year from Japan. $32000 with mark up of 4-5000 bucks. Lotsa a room it seems. But, its still not a roadster. Expect a roadster around 2004. Didn't get a chance to drive the car because the showroom model was sold. The brochure has some exotic features that should attract a lot of people. However, until the car proves itself on the road I'ma gonna keepa ma S car.

I got my 350Z Tuesday, got a little over 500 miles on it. In all honesty the steering and handling feels equal to that of the s2000 it is EXTREMELY rigid in the twisty's and makes my RX-7 feel more like a museum piece.
On smooth surfaces it feels a smooth as a MB and is very quite.
On rough surfaces it feels a little like a vette extremely firm.
I've only had one test drive in a S2000 and I have to tell you it's not as smooth and quite as the Z and not as comfortable but it sure is a whole lot more fun to drive.
The S2000 will be my next addition, I've got to have a roadster!
