But yeah: the visibility sucks, the hood is massive ("Mustang-like" is apt), the motor doesn't like to rev readily (probably a big reason why Nissan stuck synch-match on it), it's very skittish on less-than-ideal pavement, and (here's my biggest pet peeve about the car) the rear strut brace that bisects the hatch may look trick but it KILLS storage space. That last point alone makes the car exponentially less live-able as a daily driver unless you have another car to, you know, go grocery shopping ...
Question. I continue to hear about the 370 motor not being rev-happy. How would you compare it to the motors in the 350Z (DE specifically) in terms of revs?
