350Z insurance cheaper than SRT-4???
wow....I just called to change my insurance over to the new Z and replace the SRT-4 and my premiums went down by $30 every 6 months. I thought that was strange considering there's a $10k difference in sticker prices between my SRT-4 and the new Z. Is it because kids are crashing SRT-4's right and left or something? I was all prepared for my insurance to jump and instead it went down. I'm happy but mildly intrigued as to why.

I know...I wanna take pics but work is cutting into my leisure time with the new car
I'm detailing it Saturday so at least I'll have some then. If I go out for a haircut at lunch today I'll take some crappy cell phone pics at least.

I'm not surprised at all more kids drive SRT-4 and most people who get 350z are older drivers with more money and sence of responcibility and thus a lower crash rate which means cheaper insurance. When Evo's first came out my insurance on it was less than a standard WRX (that sence has changed due to fockers crashing their evos)

lol I do hope your kidding.... SRT-4 has the same 0-60 and 1/4 mile as the Z however the Z deffinately outhandles and pulls way ahead on the top end. Its also a naturally aspired engine which means you put a good turbo on it and its going to be that much more ahead of the SRT-4 which already has a turbo The Z is by far a nicer car with much more room for improvement than a FWD economy car with a turboed engine
