Default anyone own a 350/370 Z car?

The new Z car is bad ass and I am seriously looking at it for a new car in a year (after the new car bugs are worked out) anyone here have one? what do they think?

I think smileyman used to have a 350, he was giving me a lot of his impressions on it a little while back.

sat in it at the auto show, shifter felt like crap. rubbery and notchy with long throws. im also against nissan's attempt to dumb down the population of manual drivers with an auto blip feature for downshifts. rest of the car i liked. not trading the nsx for it though and i should still spank em

NSX's are ghey. Its a pretty good car, but like was said above the tranny shifts bad, a short throw shifter fixes that.

Add to that, I always thought that they are very twitchy at the limit, one second they are pushing through turns, the next your deep into oversteer, with little or no warning. It definately takes a steady hand to keep them in line

If Edmunds is to be believed, the prices are even better on the 370's.
Assuming I had that kind of money to spend, I'd definitely own one.
