Performs like a dream.
Quite rare, so people look.
When men look they drool (I own it and when I look I drool!)
I've had the pleasure of driving a Ferrari at Silverstone and the 350Z on the A1 is almost as much fun.
Loads of electronics around the braking system make it quite difficult to hurt yourself (and others).
There are printed instructions on how to fit a set of golf clubs into the boot (true)!
Bad Points
Costs a fortune to run, especially if you have a heavy foot (but let's face it, if you have a light foot you probably don't want a 350Z anyway).
It has the carbon footprint of a typical 3.5 litre vehicle - equal to about 2/3 of an average cow's daily methane output (true - look it up on the internet).
Gordon Brown applied punitive levels of road tax for owning (as opposing to using) vehicles in this league.
Guys - you need to have a constant supply of sticks, girls, beating off, for the use of.
Husbands - she'll always find excuses to take it and leave you with the family Skoda.
General Comments
Where to start? The Nissan 350Z convertible makes travelling anywhere a pleasure. When I have to go somewhere this is the way to travel. Sometimes when I have nowhere to travel to I go anyway. I have found an amazing 'B' road where I can safely open it up to its full potential (sorry I can't tell you where, that would only invite self-defeating congestion, or worse, 'official' scrutiny). I go there when I'm tense and I come back re-charged (and if the top's down, with a new hairstyle). I've had it for almost a year and I still get a great sense of pride when I walk back across the car park. I have no idea what can possibly follow this act in terms of joy to drive. Any ideas? (max £30k budget, up to 1 year old).
