Maccaman Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Hi Fee & to the forum. Go on and get a Zed, you don't want to be just one of the crowd. You also get to join the very exclusive Sprinkle club & we treat those female members as Goddesses (as I'm sure the ladies will agree ) Quote
s1xtyn1n3 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 have you driven one yet? if you have then you'll know why you don't want a TT Quote
Ruddles Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 to the forum! Go get yourself a drive in a Zed, that'll sort it! Quote
bounty78 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 have you driven one yet? if you have then you'll know why you don't want a TT +1. I test driven one before..it felt like my old Audi A4 but with a different bodywork if that makes any sense. No where near as responsive as the Zed. btw. Quote
GT4 Zed Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 If you are here it means you've already made the choice. The right one i must say! if you start looking out you should get a good one intime for our Wales pilgrimage There are a few for sale in the forum and will always make asafe buy. If you are adventurous you should go for AdrainK's car and if is a bit hard core you can take off the upgraded bits which you will easily sell and replace the standard parts You will get help from lots in here to do any swaps for free Quote
Husky Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Nixy and Vic and quite a few others, they are people too Quote
ToriB Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Hi Fee! I have just bought my 350Z (GT, blue, no mods - yet!) and absolutely love it. Had thought about it for about a year and had also had similar thoughts re: TT, Z4 etc, but thought the Z was so much nicer, fun, and of course you don't see to many, especially driven by girls. Went for a test drive and bought one same day! Picked it up last week and laughed for about the first 3 miles home, I loved it that much. Insurance wasn't too astronomical, try running a comparison search then ring round some specialist companies, Adrian Flux sorted me a fab deal. If you have any questions please ask, but the Z comes highly recommended from me! Do the right thing and BUY ONE NOW Tori Quote

Maccaman Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 It may be only 15 but they make a lot of noise (and of course we love them for it ) Quote
Wasso Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Some people have mentioned you may get a few heads turning. Try driving through a small village, sun is blazing but whilst waiting at the lights, people are crossing the road - and nine times out of ten people will always give your car a lookover!! They will also look back once you leave the lights due to the pure harmonic sound the car emits, as the sounds bounces off the various buildings in the village. I've had mine almost a year and the dam thing still makes me smile, purely by how rewarding the car is. You put the other competitors lined up next to the Z and there will always be 1 winner - looks and sound and if you put the running costs against them all the Z win's again! If you opt for the competition you will always look back at the Z and always feel as if somethings missing! Go Z girl!!! (I forgot to mention - how may TT, Z4, Merc drivers wave or acknowledge each other - only the other day I met Ruddles in Malvern - great support and enthusiasm for a truly fantastic car!) Quote
s1xtyn1n3 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 sell my house ang live in my 370 or keep the house and get a 350??? all???!!! :0)even though the 370 looks I do prefer the 350's looks, but that's just my opinion Quote
bounty78 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 ^^ he is right. It's definitely a car that make head turns. I was a given a thumbs up by someone in a BMW yesterday when i was waiting a the traffic lights. Never did get that response even in my hardtop beamer previously. Quote
Vik54 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Hi Fee - welcome to the forum Plenty of us female owners around http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=23306- an ancient thread but will give you an idea There's zero comparison to be made between those other Marques and the zed - your mates are completely insane if they even suggest there is I tried BMWs and Audis when I was shopping and always returned to the zed - now had it for just under a year and still get a rush every time I turn the ignition. Admiral/Bell seem to be the best for first time and young zed insurers Happy shopping Quote
andlid Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 THIS ONE ABOVE IS FOR SALE!! enough said... one of these babies could be YOURS! (similar anyway...) Quote
Wasso Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Andlid, that's porn!! ^^ he is right. It's definitely a car that make head turns. I was a given a thumbs up by someone in a BMW yesterday when i was waiting a the traffic lights. Never did get that response even in my hardtop beamer previously. Not only do head turn - people talk. I work in a building of 8 floors, the amount of people who came up to me and said "do you own the Z?" Every time somebody asks I feel like yelping "yes that's me" - a great feeling. Audi, BMW, Merc owners all ask about the car. It may have a Nissan badge on the front, but boy oh boy, they have really made a cracking car. You should come along to a local Z meet, get a better feel for the addition. Quote
doctor austin Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 You wont get a better and more useful forum with any other make... for sure be different get a Zed Quote
mab1 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Completely agree with all the comments here, I've not owned a car that has got a more positive reaction on the road. What really makes me smile is the amount of little kids, that yank on their parent arms to point out the car as it comes past or wave. Call me sad, but I love that. My mates 5 year old loves it, I lent it to him last weekend (the mate not the kid!) and his lad couldnt stop talking it about it when i came to pick it up! Quote
Fee Posted April 28, 2010 Author Posted April 28, 2010 OMG!!!!!!!!!!! How could I possibly not get one now????!!!!!!!!! Quote
andlid Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 OMG!!!!!!!!!!! How could I possibly not get one now????!!!!!!!!! Get the green one :-)) Quote
mab1 Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 If you still have any doubts follow this simple back to back test: 1. Get into TT/SLK 2. Turn key and listen carefully. Then: 1. Get into zed 2. Turn key 3. Realise you need to depress the clutch to start. 4. Turn key again and listen, dont worry about being careful you wont miss this one.. Decide on which one is going to make you smile when you do that on a wet Tuesday morning in 18 months time.... no contest. Small print: Probably best not to do this test with an SLK 55 AMG though!
