The 2009 370Z has a starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP)* of $29,990, providing passionate performance at an excellent value. At this price the new 370Z is about $280 less than a comparably priced 2008 350Z Enthusiast model - yet it offers more standard equipment, such as Nissan Intelligent Key(TM), side and curtain supplemental air bags and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC). The new Z(R) is available in two models: 370Z and 370Z Touring.
Lower weight, more power, lower price. OMG

LESS than a Camaro.

LESS than a premium Mustang.

MORE AFFORDABLE.
Of course I know how much it costs, I posted the link, lol.

I was just saying that old people might play Need for Speed, too.

Anyway, the 370Z is a really nice car. Not the best styling, but I wouldn't mind being caught driving one. I think this car is a more worthy competitor than the Mustang.

ha ok. I thought you were implying "older men" would want to drive the car because they were the only ones who could afford it.

Yea, I was really surprised to see a car with this much stuff, rev-matching manual tranny, that fancy intake and valvetrain, touch-screen navigation, to be that affordable. And 332hp????

You're just reminding of more reasons to consider getting this thing over the Camaro!!! Plus, dynamic 50/50 weight balance, 4-piston brakes, a mean suspension, and an awesome-looking interior.

BUT since GM is going through a tough time, I think I can get used to 422hp.

You're a trip Congo.

That would be too cool to be able to drive the Camaro and the Z.

God, I want a warehouse full of cars!

Over here, a LOT of people drive 350Zs, and my neighbor across the street got one recently. And his girlfriend got an IS250 this month, too.

That's one of the reasons I still prefer the Camaro over the 370Z.
