Welcome to the not-so-dark side.

But also, there are literally dozens of Z threads there. You'll be hard-pressed to find a Z supporter around these parts, though there are a couple,.. (forum search is hard.. no hard feelings).

Thanks have read most of those

If it's performance per dollar, the 3.0 is the clear winner here.
That being said, get the car you really want.
If that's the Z, then go with that.

Bottom line is: don't spend $50K+ on something you don't actually want.

Agreed . The Supra is a better sports car mechanical , more modern and refined. But its hard to fix ugly.

I'll buy tires for a journalist.

"wince inducing exterior styling" ... can you buy some new eyeglasses for the referee as well? 🥸

Even though the Supra is the better car, the hate on Supras is unreal
Spoiler alert. Don’t read the backfires on C/D comparo

They're all a bunch of idiotic old fart fucktards who don't know jack shit about anything. Ignore them.

They're like this towards all Toyota and Lexus vehicles.

Get the Z!! Be different!!

Had they used auto vs auto it wouldn't have end well for the Z because most reviewers have said the manual is better than the 9spd auto and many have said its not as great as zf8hp box in our cars.

I went to the chevy dealer today to finish the paperwork on my new car. Took the Supra. Bad idea. Everyone there wanted to see it, sales guys included. Never heard in person one person say it's ugly.

 

[SupraYYJ]

Be unique, buy the Z! The Supra is soo played out!! I swear sometimes it feels like 90% of the people on this forum have one!!1

 

[XtremeMaC]

Yeah get the Z. Nissan needs to recover financially so that next Z can be something from scratch.

I love this forum! The support and advice so objective for Z lovers lol

This^^^^^^^. Sound advice OP!

Don’t worry about what we see in our rear-view if u go Z lol. J/K

They don't seem contradictory to me, however they do seem grossly overstated and incorrect. However, in an attempt at fairness, I'd bet the reviewers have never even sat in a Z32... which IMO was the last time the Z wasn't at least some form of disappointment. I'm 100% sure they're too young to have driven anything before that (when it was new). Although if they were as old as I am, then you'd have to question their reaction times as being a cause of bad numbers as well.

Regardless, in recent history I would agree that the Z has been "sporty" or maybe "sport-ish" but short of a real sports car.

Last version Nismo brakes proved that! Uh NO Nissan braking system is at a BMW level in a Z. None. I needed new front rotors on my 370Z after 15000km here in Germany. Those “sport” brakes. My M235i never an issue lol. Sorry Nissan.
