Default TT and the 350Z not what i thought

Was watching this car review on the TT and the 350Z i always thought of these cars as being so close it was a drivers race but after this video i'm not so sure anymore.
But then again the new TT is much faster and more powerful then this one.

Hmmmm... just caught the glimpse of the video showing a CA plated '07 TT - they must have fixed the emission problem that kept the '06 from being sold here...

I still think the TT has a bite more of a refinement to it over a 350Z or a G35 coupe (mothers car).

compare how many people are actual race car drivers, compared to just car owners, and these 1.6 second differences don't mean squat. The average car owner is just that, average.

Its not just a performance thing, its an overall package, and while, in this case, the TT is a bit slower, it still looks 10 times better.


Of course, I may be a little biased. I've owned 6 vehicles since I first started driving. Only 2 were weren't Audi.

i work at a dealership (not audi or Nissan) and must say the cheesyness of the 350Z (and just about all the Nissans) is rediculous, even with a performance advantage i wouldnt take it. The guages are amber and look dated and look f----ing cheap and theres an extreme lack of detail in the interior. Some people might say "who cares what the interior looks like" (i used to) but if u think about it,u spend more time not racing cruising around with a view from INSIDE the car, so the 350Z would NEVER get the nod of approval from me. Just a rant,but performance wise it aint too bad,but it needs more muscle to make up for its unfixable flaws.

I still prefer the TT over the 350z!
I only considered the 350z as a back up if I couldn't get a TT.
But luckily I got my way!

I dislike Nissans. They continue to produce some dubious quality cars (Pulsar, Patrol) which self destruct or have terminal engine failures.

Are you aware of the heritage of the 350Z engine? On the earliest Top Gear road test they said it was from the Renault Scenic People Mover.

350z's are decently fast...however im not impressed by them. TT's may be a little bit slower in the long run...but as someone put it.... we have style and grace....what does it have? ...the ablity to loose its rear end at all times...and a horrible interrior... not to mention it looks like a peice of jap crap.


im not saying audi tt's are the best...but they sure as heck dont look like a toy car....

everyday driver/tuner ....TT way over the Z.
