Congrats on your purchase! I've had my X for a year now, and I still enjoy every minute of it. The wife gets jealous that her car isn't as much fun as mine. Looks like we're getting her a new car soon.

Love the 370z but comparing to a Evo, your going to have a lot more fun for a lot less.

Yeah, I'm already enjoy the abundance of TQ at low RPMs. This is where the Z struggled. Oh my gosh, the handling.....is like nothing else! While on paper it is heavier than the Z but the X feels lighter behind the wheel. It's so nimble. Strange how that is. Is it the AWD factor that makes if feel so nimble...comparing to the Z? I mean, both have pretty rigid bodies and solid suspension from the factory. The only thing I can think of is the AWD...and SAWC (whatever you call it).

Anyway, I'm very happy with it so far.

Test drove both cars last month, loved the way the 370z looked inside and out, but the Handling alone makes the Evo X a winner for me, the low end TQ and the fact I can make the tune the car and gain around 50whp with no mods are all just bonus for me!

My thoughts exactly! So did you pick up an X yet?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just noticed the info under your avatar. Nice...you got a WW. That was my second choice. Instead, I get the RR.

the AWD is deffinately not why the evo feels lighter, typically an awd car will feel heavier even if it is infact lighter. the evo just has some black magic going on about making it feel so light on its feet. my sister has an sti, both are awd and the evo is 2-300 lb heavier, yet driving it, the evo feels lighter...

And....here she is.

'10 RR GSR w/SSS




Man, it's been a blast driving her around. However, I still haven't pushed it hard.....still in break-in phase.

At the end of the month, I'll be getting it tinted and clear bra installed.
