Thats about 10xs better then i thought it would look like. I'd still take a hardtop. Im just not a convertable person. That color is amazing though....makes any style look great.

Drive a 350Z...It feels more euro than most euro cars.

or how about 225hp...and all wheel drive? Thats only a chip away from 300 hp too. Before you laugh too much get your facts straight.

And there's nothing wrong with a $30k 4 cylinder.

That car is definitely you. Go for the track model if it's available on the 'vertibles. If not, the money you're saving can get you some Brembos and RAYS wheels, which really is the only difference.

Sorry, I don't even think about NA Z32's when discussing Z's. Like the 2+2's, the convertibles did not come turbo.

I think it was SCCA races I was looking at, five of the top ten cars were M3's, including first place.

We'll see. I like 'em but I can't be without a droptop now. If I didn't need a droptop I'd probably be driving one right now. I'd like to see 'em in a different color combo though, If they had a pearl white 350Z with a tan accented interior I think I'd be in love.

When comparing it to a TT yeah.

That shouldn't be a problem. I'm sure you'll be able to preorder one to your preferences just like w/ the first line. Just keep checking www.nissandriven.com.
