Specifically the 07-08 Hr version?Been watching videos on YouTube about these and they seem to give these newer muscle cars a run for their money.I test drove one and the exhaust is :whew: feels like a big go cart.Hows yall experience with these reliability and performance wise?

get a manual. The auto trans for those years are know to blow up. Also those Z's untuned/stock wouldn't give a v6 camaro its run for its money.
Didn't know about those transmission problems..just googled it.Doubt a v6 camaro can handle a 350z unless you're talking about the 6th gen.

You think the g35 coupe has the same problems?Originally wanted one since it's more practical and cheaper to insure.

Yes the 370z is much improved. The 350z is still a great car too. I think the HR revisions address the oil and chain that could happen. 350zs can be had for very cheap it's almost silly to not consider it.

I'd say it's the best starter sports car you can get today short of something way smaller like a Miata.

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Had a 2007 350z Grand Touring fully loaded with navi, 6 disc changer, staggered Enkei's and a sub = all stock.



Best car i ever owned and would buy another in a heart beat.



Best 4 anos of my life.



Shiit was a babe magnet.



Had the Bimbo brakes and errthang.



Own a 16 Wrx now and even though this all wheel drive is the squirrels pearls...




The 350 was the tiger's desires.

Borrowed my friends for a day back in the day and I just loved how low it felt to the ground and how that created an amazing feeling when merging in and out of traffic in it

Had a 370z for about a year.

Best looking car I've ever owned.

Hated it.

Heat soak caused massive power loss / shytty throttle response / no torque due to engine timing.....
Add in the power loss from A/C and I was getting outrun by minivans in the summer.
Cabin was tiny, rear visibility was ass, and the ride quality all made the lack of power unbearable.

Hated it.
