Fun car to drive but ours came with too many shortcomings for us to be happy with it. As mentioned in other Z groups, the dealer plays dumb with the problems -- in our case the front end / tire problem and a 6 speed that has chronic shifting problems from 1>2. Trannie has been replaced once. The front end has had the TSB "fix". With new tires, the noise is returning after about 4000 miles. The seat covers were replaced at less than 12000 miles! And last but not least, burning premium gas these days is very hard on the pocketbook. We had an '88 300Z we owned until we traded it in on 350Z. After our current nightmare, we won't be owning any more Nissans.

Don't hesitate buy one. I have owned several z's before but this is far the best one I have ever owned (except for my 300Z).Nothing else will be as bad as the Corvette!!!! That is what i will buy when I get rid of the z in the next 6 months. Mazda has out done themselves.. this time, But American made is the way to go.

The 350 is my "fun" car and not primary. I had a 280Z in the 80's and loved the car. I did not like the 300 series though so when I first saw the 350Z in a mag. I had to have it. Ordered 9-02 and it finally arrived with all the snow in 1-03. Same wonderful Z roar as the 280 had. Turns eyes/heads everywhere I go!!! Great fun to drive---handles exceptionally well on interstates that allow +70mph and crocked mountain roads. My only complaint is that I cannot spend more time driving for fun.

I wonder why Nissan can't offer VDC on a rear driver for all models. BMW and Audi, you can't get a car without the stability control system. OTherwise, it is a bargain and a gorgeous car except the droopy butt.

The 2003 Z has a known and admitted front tire wear and nosie problem that Nissan declines to address for its buyers. If you don't mind buying new tires evry 5,000 miles, this car is for you. My Z began the problem at 8,000 miles; got the Nissan temp fix; and returned at 12,000 miles. It's days are numbered. See the problem at www.nissantireproblems.com
