That's a very nice non-BMW Z. I like them a lot!

these look so good with the roof down and great choice of colour!

I like the 370z,always been a fast Nissan fan.

I bought the GT edition coupe model with only 7k on a few years ago.Loved how it looked,and it drove well too..

Hated interior cabin noise and VED rate (for what you actually got)...

Yes and they do get criticised for the cabin noise. I suppose it isn't quite as bad in the Roadster but you do get a lot of wind noise though. The exhaust is that loud on mine that it is quite annoying roof up because it is very boomy/droney. I only use the car when its dry(roof down) but I've been caught out a couple of times in the rain so I've had to put the roof up.

The VED rate is a frustrating one and I also felt short changed regarding that when I had my Z4M(why pay all that money for a straight six engine or V6 engine when you can have a V8 engine for the same money). That was one of the reasons why I swapped the Z4M for a E92 M3 because I thought that I was getting more value for money having a V8.

I really like the 370Z so I'm happy to suck the VED up...but I still don't agree with it though!
