I really liked this episode (of course, my 300ZX TT is featured).

I like the comparison of similar cars.

Keep up the good work !!

I felt your review was extremely bias towards a car you own and love.

I felt you weren't making a well thought out comparison - you pulled a top of the line model 300zx TT, and a top of the line model 370z with the sports package, but for the 350z you chose one of the weakest setups, and it wasn't a track or gt model etc.

in all fairness you should have ran an 07-08 Z with the HR engine and a higher trim level to experience what the 350z is all about.

the review was a lot of 'feel' and not so much hammering down on any comparison tests. perhaps next time you could run the cars at a track or two.

Not sure whom you meant by "your review", but the EverdayDriver review of the "Z" cars was done by Paul and Todd, not by me (Jerry). I allowed them to use my car in the review.

Of course, I still like my car the best because it is my car Smile

sorry for the confusion. I meant 'your', as in everydaydriver, not you personally. I don't recall which of the two owned a 300zx as well, but the bias was clear cut with his love for the car.

Yes, Todd is the person who also owns a "Z" car. He clearly stated that he owned and loved a Z Car and the review displayed a photo of his car. I would point out that his car is an NA (Non-Aspirated [non-turbo]) model. My twin turbo model has 80+ more horsepower than his car.
