For anyone watching this in 2019, this video does have some misinformation (always remember to double or triple check info sources on the internet), mistakes, and basically “meh” content. It was one of our first videos and we made a lot of mistakes. Shooting and editing the video was also outside my hands and we’ve learned a lot since this was shot. Nonetheless, let’s hear which one you would pick! 350Z or 370Z?

About a month ago I rode with a friend of mine in his 370z which is brand new. When we headed home he let me drive back. I have a 2004 350z and I was anxious to compare them. I drove about 40 miles on I-75 and another 20 in traffic. The first thing I noticed was both cars drove the same. The steering was tight and gave me the feeling I was always in control of the car. My 350z gives me the same feeling of control and is much older. I could sense a little more hp but just slightly. Both cars are stock with no mods. It is a testament to Nissan on how well made the Z cars are when you can drive 2 cars that are 14 years apart and they both drive the same

I have a 370z and I love it but honestly I think the 350’s look better when modded but that’s my opinion

I had a beautiful Blue 04 350z Touring for over 2 years and I loved it. I own a 2013 370z Sport now and I will say the 370 stock is much faster than my old 350 that had only a few mods. Its more comfortable, feels way more upscale, and feels a lot faster than the DE. Where the 350 wins is the sound the DE made and the steering was nice and heavier. Looks wise I loved them both but I prefer 370z.

I've owned a '91 300 ZX, a 2006 350Z, and a 2011 370Z, and the 370Z was by far the best car I've ever owned. It had beautiful styling, was very fast, and fun to drive. I traded it for a Cadillac ELR which is an electrical hybrid and very luxurious and very stylish car, but have since moved into a condo with a communal garage and assigned spaces so I no longer have an outlet to plug it in. I want to go back to a 370Z, but they are overpriced right now so I am playing the waiting game. I also found an outlet a few spaces down which I can plug into as long as the HOA does not notice, so with the high price of gas I can run on electric so I am in no rush.

V6 Mustang VS V6 370z is not a competion but a slaughter. V8 Mustang VS V6 307z, sure in the straight line, but in the track is a different story. BTW, as tested V8 Mustang tops @ 155 mph while 370z tops @ 162 mph.

My 2004 with a manual weighs 3188 lbs. It is not light, but it certainly is rigid. I also own a 2014 Infiniti Q60S and the acceleration is the same but the handling is not quite as quick as the older Z. As for the 370Z, it is notably quicker then a 350Z. I like the 370Z and that rev matching thing is pretty nice with a manual. What amazes me is how quick the Z is compared to many much more powerful cars. I could see this if the car was some kind of weak, super light vehicle that was just designed with 0-60 times like most American muscle, but the Z is very stiff and handles better then most cars out there while still being very quick in a 0-60 romp. I have driven both the Camaro and the Mustang and the Mustang is better then the Camaro, but both do not have the balance and feel of the Z. The Z is just plain a better designed and built car. The only thing the domestics have over the Z is brute power. But, brute power is no substitute for true balanced performance. The Japanese got it right while the Americans seem to be floundering in the 60's still. I do also a 1990 Mustang 5.0L notch back and I like that car for what it is. As for newer Mustangs? They are just too big and fat for my taste. Too much engine for the abilities of the car and it's suspension. Probably why so many end up being wrecked.

I love the 350z. Those digital gauge's are just awesome!!

I had four 350z’s in my life. Loved them! However, when 370z came out I felt in love with the new design. I bought 370z convertible and enjoyed every ride till the convertible top stopped working (common problem with roadster 370z’s). Everything is better on 370z. Exterior design, interior is miles better, 370z is faster and just overall more thought out vehicle in my opinion. Both cars are nice, but I’ll take 370z over 350z any day after experiencing both.

370z is beautiful, but it’s long overdue for redisign. Current body style has been on the market for 10 years! I want to see new design along with that 400hp engine Nissan puts in their Infiniti Q50 red sport. That would be a proper and much needed change!

They are both great cars. The 370 may be better but that’s usually what happens when newer models with more tech come out. The 350 is a future classic that was the return of the z cars and was a great car for its time. It well deserved it’s shine

I like the 350 with option to add so many aftermarket parts a lot cheaper

Saying a 350Z is better for someone of your age or means is no different than saying a 2010 Mustang is better than a 2017 Mustang, i.e. - you're basing this on price alone. Also, the Z is an honest-to-God sports car and the Mustang isn't, so that comparison is apples to oranges.

I am an owner of a '05 350Z... personally, I don't care for the 370 mainly because, of the smaller body on the 370 and, the tire fenders don't have the same flare as the 350. Repositioning the third tail light from a higher position (for safety) was a bad idea. The vehicle is already a low profile car. My opinion, this makes it harder to see from behind. As you stated, there are much more mods you can do to the 350 than the 370.

The crank on the 370Z holds more power. End of debate. The 300ZX was made until 2000 in Japan and Europe. Not 1996. Stopped importing left hand drive Zs to USDM in 96. All right hand drive were sold in Japan, Europe, and Australia.

350 for value... 370 isn't worth the extra 30 hp in that price range you can get v8 mustang challenger and Camaro which make way more power. 370 is only for die hard z fans. It's old and no longer offers that bang for your buck performance like the 350 did. Z is in a tough spot if they upgrade the z with new chassis and give it the 400hp 3.0 tt v6 from the q50 Rs then they're going to want 50k and that's corvette and Porsche money so eventually I think Nissan will kill the Z.

The 350Z is way faster but the 370Z in my humble opinion is a more balanced car, it’s more reliable and has better breaks and suspension. I like em both.

Since its a z topic video, I have a question, which is more of a rumor I believe. Is it true that roof of z's get caved in or something like that at high speeds. Just a question, cause I know someone of will get triggered lol, no need for the salt. Thanks.

My area is littered with challengers and chargers and mustangs like you cannot round one corner without seeing 5 of them but ive only ever seen 3 - 4 370z and 1 350z

Same and it’s annoying

Had a silver 2006 350z base with just over 60k on it that I bought new.It was beginning to burn oil more than usual so I decided I had to get out of it.I found a 2012 silver with the touring + sport package at car max with 42k on it for 21 thousand. They gave me 9 for that oil burning sumbitch and I paid the difference..Best car decision I've ever made the 370 is better in every way .

It’s like this 350z and 70z are the same but I like the 50z because of how the engine sound like when you shift in a 70z it revs higher when you shift but 50z it sound perfect

Have you ever driven one?

I like the RX7

Ive own all 3 z’s. DE,HR, n nismo VHR. Out of all 3 i preffer the vhr the motor for my taste is a heavy duty 3.7 motor that can put easy power down. I havent had any problems with my vhr at all. The only problem i have hated in the vhr 370 are the oem oil coolers once you change those you got a heavy duty bullet proof motor with bullet proof tranny and the o2 sensors they go bad quick . On the other hand ive had a DE not very much liked, Lots of oil leaks. Had to get brand new oil pans left and right. Had to spend alot of money on 5qt oil. Bad suspension. Lets just say ive spent over 12k in total on my 350z de in 3 years. Cam shaft sensors were bad as well. Its a fun car to drive until problems start happening, and best believe they happen when you least expect it. Motor had 80k miles on it. Owned a 350z hr as well for 2 years tearible valve gasket i have went thru about 4 sets of felpro valve covers. Over all it was a great car but i dont regret selling. Not many issues with the hr it was solid but for my prefference i can not say it was better then my nismo vhr. Dont comment back saying stupid shi. Cuz ive own zs for multiple years n till this day i still do. Vhr all the way

had an 04’ touring roadster 350z 6-speed. Stock except for a hurst short throw and the possible exception of an upgraded clutch (as the pedal was incredibly hard to push down. Like almost lift you out of the seat tough). Since I bought it used from a car lot (traded a low mile tastefully modded 6-speed C5 FRC Corvette in showroom condition like a dummy; even gave several thousand dollar boot. Regret that to this day. I was young what can I say) I had no way of knowing. It had ~60k miles on it when I got it. Anyway, I kept it for 6 years or so as a daily driver. I always keep 2-3 vehicles total (usually an SUV, truck, or sedan. But always a sports car) to switch between, but the Z was my main ride. It had over 250,000 miles when I traded it for a BMW. In that entire time I had hardly a single problem from it. I once had an accessory belt break (quick, easy and inexpensive fix) and it got stuck in 3rd gear twice (neither time was I in the car so I suspect bad shifting of some sort to be at fault. Luckily I have a friend who used to be a Nissan service tech and did the work for cheap. The oil for the manual trannies in 350Z’s is SUPER rare and $100’s of dollars. He just happened to have some of that too. The trans had to be dropped for the fix. In both cases the driving party paid for the fix.) Also the tonneau top developed a 4” tear near the glass rear window, and the folding mechanism would sometimes need a little help raising/lowering the convertible top. That’s it. It still ran just as good with 250,000 miles as it did when I got it; no squeaks/rattles or warning lights. To be fair, other Z cars I’ve driven didn’t fare so well, even with lesser mileage. Matter fact, every car I’ve owned has stayed “tight”, no matter the mileage or abuse. I am picky about certain things, and even when driving hard, I put effort in to not harm the drivetrain (be accurate when rev-matching, keep an eye on oil temp/level, warm engine up before revving above ~3k, try to vary rpm as much as possible on long highway drives by altering speed by 15 mph or so or going from 5th to 6th, don’t make a habit of red-lining (getting within 500 rpm was better anyway as power dropped off and you stayed in the sweet part of the power band after the shift), don’t overheat the brakes/clutch. When casually accelerating, I would start in 1st up to say 5-7 mph, quickly hit 2nd and go up to 15-25, shift straight to 4th (skipping 3rd). Time it out so a rev match isn’t required; it will slide into gear. Then up to 35-45; 4th to 6th in the same way. The reason for this was to prevent drivetrain wear and maximize gas mileage. Maximum mileage occurs at the lowest rpm possible (without lugging) in as high a gear as allowed, with *near full throttle (3/4 or maybe 7/8ths). This is because at full throttle your computer will interpret your intention to go fast and will alter mapping/fuel ratios etc., so you want to get as close to this as possible without invoking the aggressive programming. 6th gear is good all the way down as low as 25 or so, all the way up to at least 163-165 - where the governor kicked in on mine. It really didn’t feel like it had more than 3-5 more mph in it anyway on a flat surface. Plus it wasn’t stable enough to inspire confidence above 140 IMO. 160+ was white-knuckle territory on a two lane- 175 was another day in the office in my corvettes, and there was still another gear left.) The nervousness could have been due in part to my all-season tires with 45 sidewalls, or maybe the convertibles aerodynamics weren’t ideal. Or the less than rigid frame, high center of gravity, quick steering, quick rebound from the shocks, brakes that weren’t very strong and would temporarily warp from heat pretty quickly when used at high speeds, causing a disturbing shimmy. Or maybe those things are just normal at high speed, and I am just lucky to have experienced great high speed cars. (I have video proof of 210-212, have driven 200+ at least a dozen times (all in C5 Corvettes) and 180+ too many times to count (In a few different cars, both driving and as a passenger. Off the top of my head there was an 04’ Mustang Cobra with 650+ rwhp, 06’ Pontiac GTO that pulled 11.1 on street tires, a Porsche 911 (997) C4 modded (passenger), C6 Lingenfelter Corvette (passenger, same guy who owned the 911), BMW M5 (E60 with the V-10, speed limiter removed. Was still pulling hard at 185, stock except for exhaust, chip, and Dinan airbox/filter). Keep in mind my Z was a roadster (convertible). These had slightly shorter gearing to make up for the acceleration loss due to the extra weight of the electronics/motors/structure for the top, along with additional chassis bracing for chassis rigidity. (This likely made it easier to lug around in higher gears). It did pass the infamous convertible “pinch test” at least. At time of trade: All electronics worked. The seams in the heated leather seats had loosened in the same spot (about 6” in the middle of the seam that ran from the left to the right bolster on the bottom cushion; there were no rips in the leather anywhere) on both front seats exposing the white foam. The seat warmers still worked on all 3 settings. Here was my upkeep schedule: •oil changes every 3k-5k miles (much of my driving was highway so 3k was overkill. I would check the oil level and color every so often). All fluids checked along with windshield wipers and air filter (replaced if needed), tire pressure checked, washer fluid etc. every oil change. Sometimes added Lucas to the oil and a specific treatment to the gas every so often. •tires (would occasionally let them get pretty bad before replacing) •battery (would wait until the current one would no longer start the car) •brake pads •brake rotors (either turn rotors or replace) •thorough hand wash 1-2 times per week. Every 2 or 3 months I would fully detail it. Here is an overview of my routine I highly recommend to anyone wanting to maintain their paint quality: Wet entire car down (windows up!). Mix 1-2 cups purple power w/ 1-2 gallons of water in bucket (ppb). Put high quality auto detergent w/ water in another bucket (acb). Another bucket with just water (wb). Spray diluted (1 part pp, 2-3 parts water)purple power from spray bottle onto front bumper, side mirrors, side skirts, bottom rear quarter panels, rear bumper, windshield (anywhere bugs or grime build up). Take a netted foam pad dipped in ppb, scrub that junk off and rinse before it dries. Wheel acid, tires scrubbed, leather/interior plastic conditioned, carpet cleaned, top cleaned/occasionally conditioned, metals polished, etc. •93 octane gas (although I would have to run 87 or 89 from time to time if I couldn’t find premium). Would go out of my way to run non-ethanol gas as much as I could (maybe 25% of the time). •2 major services (spark plugs, valve adjustment, air filters, belts, alignment, radiator flush, etc). The car was wrecked 3 times. Twice by friends: •one was pretty minor; hit a small animal, replaced front bumper •one major; $6000 in work, not counting replacing the transmission out of pocket that insurance wouldn’t cover (don’t ask me how that happened). He was drunk driving on the interstate in the rain and a car wiped out in front of him so he swerved in to a bank to avoid it (supposedly). •I hit a deer at ~30 mph. Replaced headlight (for anyone interested, replacement headlights for a 350Z is $300/light for halogen, $1500-3000 per light for HID. I had HIDs, switched to halogen to save money. Later realized the only difference was a 2 prong plug for halogen and 3 prong HID. Aside from that, a $100 ballast and bulb off of eBay and your in business.) Dented hood, front passenger quarter panel, and passenger door. $3500 in damage (fixed for about half of that). Out of those 6 years and 200,000 miles, many of which were driven pretty hard (I am quite talented behind the wheel, often drifted at 65+mph, redlined often, brake hard and late into corners while heel/toe downshifting, clip the apex and power slide out. Would see the ~165 mph fuel cutoff pretty often. I live in a rural, hilly area with few cops and plenty of great curvy driving roads with smooth pavement; I definitely took advantage of this (in the event of meeting a boy in blue I’d wish him luck and hit the closest county... hypothetically. This was during the Crown Vic days). Let pretty much anybody that wanted to drive it (one friend took off in it for almost 2 months). I would literally leave the keys in it at my house in case someone wanted to borrow it. In other words, it had the sh*t ran out of it, although mostly in a loving manner. 350Z’s are tough cars made to last. It didn’t have have power of my Corvettes, or agility of my Porsche, but was somewhere in between and was enjoyable in its own way. I imagine with a little suspension work, a hardtop model with some chassis bracing, Brembos, lighter wheels+wider/stickier tires, and 50-100 more horsepower, they would be close to perfect. Especially if you could remove a couple hundred pounds from one. (Remove A/C compressor, power steering pump, air bags, replace heavy seats w/ recaros, remove sound deadening (optional), remove spare tire/jack, remove cats, add 1/2”-5/8” spacer to the intake manifold to help all cylinders breathe, replace all rubber bushings with metal, get a good LSD (some came with one) with short ratios, underdrive pulleys, oil cooler, transmission cooler, 160 thermostat, electric fan, customize aero underneath of car for less lift at speed, maybe add front/rear spoiler, short throw shifter, raise compression, stronger valve springs, raise rev limit 500 rpm, port/polish intake manifold, exhaust headers (high flow cats/test pipes), CAI, larger fuel injectors,

Used to be obssesed with 370, now I want a more budget friendly beast😂

Slav Films what’s budget friendly? A civic maybe

As a 2020 370z owner I give respect to the 350z. For being as old as it is it still looks relevant and would not under estimate one that has upgrades. If I ever get the chance to build a drift car out of an older or salvaged vehicle the 350z would be my choice.

Not a fan of the Zee but love a Zed!

I like the rear of the 350 better. If i got a z car and just wanted to undertake a huge project i would get a 350z and swap the 370z engine front end and interior onto it.

I had a 350z back in 2006, i think the 350z is actually a better looking car, the lines flow together much better

I have an 06 Z and love it but I think the 09 370 Z nismo is the best looking Z out there.

Love my 2009 370z

I have a 2003 zo6 a 2011 ss 6 speed and a 2009 370 z automatic and i can honestly say i enjoy driving my 370z more but i do miss the growl of my full exhaust zo6.

a modded 350z all day long :)

2007-2009 350z hr has 306 the regular de has 286hp and the 2006 z33 has 300hp on a de. I got my hr for 9k you can find 03 350z with 150,000 miles for 3k here in sd sometimes.

I thought u know...u were gonna show the cars in real life... :(

The 350 looks better than the 370. Something about the 370 rear end reminds me of a Honda.

Sounds like 07-08 350z is the best option

350z HR nismo with full boltons and tune with some 370 wheels👍 and later add a 370z crankshaft and higher comp forged pistons to make it a 3.7. Still be street-able and have 350whp easy with gobs of torque.
