Congrats, they are fun cars (hopefully it has a man pedal).

Sweet ride!

Please compare the driving experience to the 5th generation Camaro SS.

Power - v6 332 HP vs v8 426 HP...Camaro wins easily. The Z is quick and sounds good for a v6 but my 1LE with npp sounded amazing and is the faster car.
The Z handles great to me but the 1 LE stuck like glue. I haven't really pushed the Z but it feels good around fast bends. The Z is an auto and so the driving experience is not as engaging as the 1 LE. The Z is smaller and weighs less.
Both cars are gorgeous in my opinion. I bought the car because I wanted something different from what I usually drive...Camaros...and so far am happy with it. I don't keep cars very long so I'll most likely be in a Camaro again, most likely a 17 1LE.

I was briefly considering going from the Challenger to the 370Z, but opted for the Camaro 2SS convertible instead. I appreciate your comparison. The differences are sorta what I expected.

I like Z cars, and yours is beautiful.

For a convertible with good power, the 5gen SS was hard to beat. I considered the German choices, but the price gap is huge! Mustangs were NEVER an option. Lol

Sweet looking car. They always catch my eye when I drive by the dealer.

Nice car! Those are extremely fun to drive, and apparently you can get those wheels as an option on an Infiniti Q50 as part of a performance wheel package.

The wheels are Rays and part of the sport pkg option along with lsd and sport brakes.
