Then vs. now part 8

[Onslaught]

I'm more a fan of the 300Z myself.

[TheIntrepid]

350Z.

[the Teuton]

300ZX Turbo SWB, please.

[Raza]

The 300ZX was named by Automobile Magazine as one of the top 25 designs of all time.  I don't agree.

But I'd still take it.  2 seater, tout de'suite.

I agree. If they had to choose a Japanese car for that list I would have rather seen a FD RX-7 or NSX. But I'm still a fan of the 300Z.

[nickdrinkwater]

300 ZX.

Though I do really like the 350 Z.

[The Pirate]

300ZX

[sandertheshark]

300ZX Turbo is my favorite Nissan.

[Raghavan]

350 for me.

[280Z Turbo]

300ZXTT, although I think I'd rather have a nice single turbo Z31 300ZX instead.

The engine bay of a Z32 is absolutely terrible. Every square inch is completely filled with engine.

I do. It was such a stunning design back in '89, and it still looks fresh and modern 18 years later.

350Z

[850CSi]

They're both not very good looking, but I'd rather have the 300.

[JYODER240]

As a DD i'll take a 350Z. I picked the 300ZX, though. Amazing design. It's sleek, agressive, looks good from any angle, and still looks great 18years later.

[omicron]

350

[S204STi]

The 300ZX Twin Turbo is the only one "300" cars that was worth owning or driving.  The standard 300ZX is a complete dog.

I voted 350Z.

[MidnightDave]

I'm surprised by the fan base for the 300. Other than the twin turbo, I think it had become bloated and middle aged--a lot like me! ;-)

My '77 280Z is still on my "regret I ever sold it" list, so maybe I'm just biased. The 350Z is a great bang for the buck car, so it gets my nod, in this vote and over a lot of other cars from Europe and Japan in the same 2+2 arena.

[Onslaught]

Well the 240Z is my favorite Z car ever. I prefer the looks of the 300Z over the 350 inside and out. I think they are both on the fat side and that's a flaw in all the Z's after the 260.

I agree that the 350Z weighs too much but here's something to think about; according to C&D the 997 C2s weighs 3290lbs. Not much less than a 350Z and you never hear anyone say it's too heavy.

[850CSi]

As a DD i'll take a 350Z. I picked the 300ZX, though.

Why, is the new one a lot more livable?

[JYODER240]

I'd assume its more relieble, has a warranty, and I think its more comfortable although that really doesn't bother me much. I'd love to drive a 300ZX TT some time, I've only ever ridden shotgun before.

[ChrisV]

300X w/LS1 FTW. 

lol!

[FlatBlackCaddy]

Ive made my decision.

The benefit of having a turbo is massive power from bolt ons, if you want to go fast(while keeping the original motor, no v-8 chris) a TT Z will get you moving.

[850CSi]

300X w/LS1 FTW.?

lol!

Anything with LS1 FTW. 

[Tave]

Neither. I'd take the 300 Turbo that looked like the older Z's.

[SaltyDog]

300Z: it looks better, is lighter, and is sometimes turboded.

The 350Z and the 300Z weigh about the same IIRC.

But I'd take a 300ZX
