jumping350 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 2 people in a 10 page thread said they didnt like the 350z and we end up as the cover picture Quote
Stutopia Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 How do we get this removed from the internet? Can we do a petition or do the team have the skills to hack it and replace with a picture of any Porker Quote
jimboy2 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 It's PH I expect nothing less. Bet someone has said their F40 was boring to drive 1 Quote
Ekona Posted July 22, 2015 Author Posted July 22, 2015 This is true. Still, a bit harsh on the Zed, but ultimately they had to pick one car for the main photo. Quote
Paddy78 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 I was just about to post this... glad I checked first. I don't get the 350z as a boring car? On looks and noise alone I'd prefer it over 99% of cars I see on the road... but I am biased and I guess it depends on what else you've owned. Quote
StevoD Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 its not as fun as my old 200sx's to drive same as with my MR2 its better car but not as fun to drive 1 Quote
coldel Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 The zed was certainly not the most 'fun' car I have have owned - but conversely its not the most boring which is what the thread is asking. I wonder what other cars P4RKS has owned that makes the 350z the most boring, I can only assume his lifetime ownership reads something like Ferrari 458, Lotus Exige etc. Quote

docwra Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Im struggling with this as well, its a 300hp 2 seat sportscar, have these people never driven anything with 4 seats or something? Some of them are ricockulous, 2 x BMW 330i, C30 Polestar, Mk1 Scirocco GTI, Mk1 Golf GTi, 200SX (I know the guy who said that as well and he loved it at the time), Audi S3, Fiat Coupe, DSG Golf GTI, Boxster, E92 M3, Range Rover Vogue SE, Fiant Uno Turbot and I stopped after 5 pages. Seriously, what a bunch of up themself pricks, there are some of the most fun cars Ive ever driven in that list. Surely trolling? 2 Quote
AliveBoy Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 The thing I don't get is, everything is relative. Sure, next to a Huayra the Z is a pretty boring car, but the z does win in the cup holder stakes against it. However next to a daewoo matiz, the z is a supercar Quote
coldel Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 ...I stopped after 2 pages, congrats on making it that far through some utter garbage! Quote
WINKJ Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 So boring to drive: Wish it could be this fun to drive: out the blocks swingin' 1 Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Cocky feckers, if the zed was boring, perhaps the sultan of Brunei' sons are the only members on PH... So much rubbish on that thread as far as I can see, couldn't go past page 1. Quote
Bockaaarck Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 To be fair to the guy on PH he has had a lot of VX220's (turbo and NA)and a 911. Plus a couple of Renault Clio Williams. It be, on that basis, that he feels the Zed is a touch boring, I expect it would be after a VX220 turbo Quote
ilogikal1 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 I can just see the headline now; People of the internet in difference of opinion shocker. Meh. Some people find the 350Z boring to drive; so f*****g what. 2 Quote
TT350 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Hot doggy! What cars has the guy owned to class a 350Z as boring?! Was his first car a McLaren F1?! Quote
Zeezeebaba Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 They don't know the meaning of the word boring, look up Talbot Tagora and get back to me The ugliest and most boring car I ever had the misfortune of owning followed a close second by my first ever car which was a Peugeot 104. Quote
Ekona Posted July 23, 2015 Author Posted July 23, 2015 Thinking about it, the Zed is probably the most boring performance car I've ever owned too. Doesn't mean it's boring, it's just the competition it's up against. 2 Quote
Bockaaarck Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 Thinking about it, the Zed is probably the most boring performance car I've ever owned too. Doesn't mean it's boring, it's just the competition it's up against. Here's a general question to everyone then. Do we think that the issue with the Zed is that it was perhaps 'oversold' in terms of the media reviews, TV reviews etc? Is the issue that perhaps an expectation of performance and road behaviour was set. Which, determined by peoples personal preference / car driving experience and exposure to other marques. The 350Z couldn't possibly hope to match up to all of those expectations. Do we think that's the reality of it, it was sold as a sports car when in reality (in my view) its more of a mini GT car? Maybe that's what raises these differences and views of it. Is it the fastest, most exciting or accomplished car I've ever driven? Well in reality no it isn't. However; is it 'bang for buck' a great value mini GT that always puts a smile of my face? For me the answer to that question is yes, but then I'm more of a GT type of chap, dontcha know Quote
Zeezeebaba Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 I bought one to replace what I considered to be an overrated german super saloon. It certainly isn't as boring as an M3 that's just my opinion as journo's love them. 1 Quote
