Default Frusterated with 350Z

My coworker and I (Silver Coupe) just stepped out into the parking lot to look at some guys loaded 350Z. He was talking up his BHP, he even hads tha gaul to compare his car to a Carrera. The materials are not nearly as nice, the interior is not well thought out, and the design is a rip off, but the thing is cheap. Has anyone driven it? I might go at lunch, I have to see what this thing is about.

Default It's a Nissan, not an Infiniti. Audi and Infiniti are luxury brands. Nissan is not.

It is not an apples to apples comparision. IMHO, comparing the 350z to an Eclipse or S2000 would be more comparable.

It's a nice car for the money. Not in the league of Porsche, not a TT either but no slouch.
