Leenx Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Old Thread revived! Without question for me it has to be the way the car seems to get peppered with stone chips every week! Admittedly I do a lot of miles on the motorway but even so!! Think it's going to need a paint job at the front shortly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_350z Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I can't believe how my Kuro attracts chips and scratches - I have a three-pronged gouge on the ROOF for god sakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingu2 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 hmm the most annoying thing is the lack of visisbility when reversing (not helped by the reflection of the strut bar)... although that's closely followed by the water in the door sills when its rained hard..

Kennydies Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 The one that bugs me is the clicker not loud enough in the indicators, I keep leaving them on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuro Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 For me it's a fair few things 1. The way it pulls in ANY gear at all, regardless of speed 2. The way it looks 3. The way it sounds 4. The way kids shout '350z - yeah!' at you 5. The feeling of utter smugness as I pass Scooby drivers 6. The way it sounds 7. The way it holds it's own in a car park full of exotica 8. Did I mention the aural delight? (that's aural BTW ) 9. The pure 'driveability' of the thing - town, county, m'way - perfect 10.... oh, hang on - what was the this thread about again?

Rob_Quads Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Annoying things for me are.... No Remote Boot Pop No Window Roll-up Crap Paint. The not so great aircon - would be nice if it went colder in the summer Lack of front glovebox (would be interested to see whats behind the dash on the passenger side to know why its not there.

Winged Rodent Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 The crap headlights And the fact they only fit one (weak) reversing light, which means reversing down my long(ish), narrow driveway in the dark is a lot more interesting than it should be.

letank87 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I second that! I agree with the paint problems too, my bumper is peppered with stone chips Although here's a new one: Lack of cabin refinement on motorways! I drive everyday on the M1 between jct15 and jct14 and the road noise does your head in. I've fitted Pilot sports and also done my own NVH fix, which was recommended to me by one of my mates who worked on the Novidem GT-S, and although it has improved quite alot, it's still a long way off what I'd call acceptable. Don't get me wrong, I love the engine and exhaust noise that the zed makes when it's being driven with spirit, but unfortunately when you're stuck at 60mph in a rolling convoy on the M1 during rush hour, I'd rather not have to turn the radio up until my ears bleed just so I can drown out the road noise!

Chesterfield Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 So you wont want to be doing the 1000 mile or so European trip then For me its how easy the paint chips. Saving grace is, at least my roof cant chip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letank87 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 So you wont want to be doing the 1000 mile or so European trip then lol. If it's mainly motorway driving then no I guess not, however you shouldn't buy a zed if all you do is drive on motorways should you! These cars have a habit of persuading you to take the B roads! Ranting aside, let's not forget that there are many more positive aspects to owning a zed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zzzz... Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 most annoying thing I have to deal with day in, day out, gettgin in and out of the car in car parks... because of the length of the door and paranoid attitude to touching any walls, cars etc... and interior plastics scratching simply by waving anything at them... unbelievable...

rmmackfc Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Surprised this hasn't been mentioned already... The hazard light button. Christ, perfect position to be elbowed. Complete after thought so it is...notice newer models it's positioned where I always thought it should have been. ....mentioned on another thread, but the fact you can't switch of the headlight washers...yet you can independently work them The boot light...what's that all about. ...but hey the pros outweight the cons by miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
