I like this car and if I was in the market for a 300ish hp V6 sports car it'd be at least in my top 3. But I like my sports cars with V8's and over 400hp.

If I can't get a Camaro, my next choice would be to wait for the chevy Cruze to come out. I'll probably be buying a cruze once the used market gets filled enough with them to use as a daily driver. Hopefully by then I'll have a nicer income. Right now my fiance and I combined only pull in about 30k annually.

But the Camaro is the only new car even remotely on my list right now. Nothing else would justify the expense.

Blah....

I'd rather buy a low mileage 4th Gen Camaro than a 370Z! It may have a decent amount of peak HP, but the low end power and torque, as well as average HP still cannot match a car that is 10 years old(the 4th gen)!

Not to mention my 1998 Z28 M6 w/ 145K miles still gets about 27-28 MPG in 6th gear on the hwy.

A yellow one just arrived at a dealership next to me. I think I might go take a look at it. I don't think they're allowed to sell it yet.

Is it me or did Hyundai Genesis steal the front end of this car?

I think the genesis did better on the front end. The 370z looks more and more like an exotic fish or snake the more I look at it.

They went on sale Dec.29th. Some dealers will keep them out back until they unload leftover 350Z's.

pretty sure the Z will blow the doors off of the Genesis without pushing all that hard.

The ONLY bad thing i can say about the Z, is the closer to redline you get the car begins to shake... not a quality of a well made car.
