350z roadster vs, TT2225Q Roadster
My lease is coming up and took out a 350z roadster. I love TT, but trying to decide, since I dont know if I can be excited about having the same car for another 3 years. Any comparisons or comments from anyone? TT seems alot smoother, more low end power, but 350 stiffer and corners better...

I don't care for the *** end of the Z cars.
Really, I think the Z is smoother and has more low end power, but I like the feel of the TT a lot more, particularly where steering is concerned.
If you upgrade the suspension on the TT, I think you'll find that you'll be very happy with it.
On the other hand, if you need to have something new, and you're looking for a change, you might be happy with the Nissan.
But I bet you'll be sorry every time you see a TTR.

350Z = thumbs down.
a Boxster is the only other rival to the TT i really feel has some character. But I would take any TT anyday over any 350Z.
I drove a 350Z prior to getting my car...and it just had no feel to it. It felt like good power in a decent shape with NO SOUL. Actually i felt that the RX-8 was more fun to drive than the 350Z.

I think it comes down to price and satisfaction. TT is great but significantly higher $$'s. If...
money's no object I would stay with TT. Realistically money is always a factor.

Re: 350z roadster vs, TT2225Q Roadster
For two years I thought I would buy a 350Z but waited until they resolved some issues they had with the car. If you search the 350Z forums you will find constant problems with suspension and resulting tire "feathering" and paint quality. I had owned three Z cars before they stopped making them and wanted so bad to have a fourth. I was disappointed in the design and the car when I drove the new Z. I am sure they are fine cars overall but I drove my TT and decided within ten minutes that it was my next car. I've had my new TT for a week and love it. The TT has a classic subtleness that edged out the 350Z for me.

I was seriously considering the Z until I drove the TT roadster. The whole package considered, the TT is the superior car.

I think the 2225Q Roadster is still a few years off...
Fuel consumption is unreasonably high and the car is extremely nose heavy, with a 99:1 front/rear weight ratio.
Still, 2225 horsepower could be addicive.
