2004 Nissan 350Z consumer reviews

Love it! Bought this vehicle to be reliable, top down, economical, and fun to drive - lives up to and exceeds my expectations! Small and compact but a great road car.

I always wanted to get something for my wife and myself. Something too enjoy, until I showed my wife the car I truly wanted! She said get the car if you want, you deserve it, instead of a family car. I did, I love the look the performance and my wife.Thanks honey!

Looks amazing Imo. I get many compliments on my car. Always have a smile on my face while driving. Great bang for buck car. Would highly recommend.

Overall, owning this car has been fairly bittersweet...it's really fun to drive although it needs about 100 more hp it handles really great! On the downside though has been Nissan engineering in regards to the convertible top the motorized system is buggy and rarely works 100% and the service department is useless on this issue, so for that reason I would not recommend the roadster

This is my second Z. I traded in my 07 in on a sweet 2012 Infiniti G 37 X . Love the G wanted another Z.

First, I have been the sole owner of this car. I love my 350Z and have rewarded it with ongoing maintenance; it is garaged under our carport. It is the perfect sporty car...the bucket seats wrap around you while the Bose sound system either soothes you on your drive or tempts you to sing along. And it handles so well for those trips when we are cruising the Keys to Miami! Vroom, vroom!

great car fun to drive blends in with the new body styles which is a plus doesn't look like a 04 handles like a brand new car !!

So the interior is pretty terrible. Cheap plastics from head to toe, the stereo is dreadful, the three driver-accessible cup holders are either too flimsy or hopelessly hard to reach. The convertible top is so electrically complex, that there's so much that can go wrong. And I don't care. This thing is as absolutely maniacal as advertised. Why would ANYONE buy a TT, Boxster S, or BMW Z4 of similar years? These can be had for way cheaper, both on the purchase AND the ownership side of things. German cars are hopelessly unreliable, The Z has a legendary engine. TTs are absolute death traps, The Z has some weight to it, and that's a GOOD thing for your safety. It growls and gargles like a sports car should from it's no-changes-necessary stock exhaust. That said, my car was used and abused when I bought it. BUT, now that everything has been restored to working order, little or nothing has gone wrong since the repairs. In fact, adding a few performance parts has been extremely easy and cheap, and I'm probably running closer to 310 bhp than the stock 287. Can't really afford a 370Z? It's okay... you can get a 350 for much less, add about $500 in performance parts (plenum spacer, high flow cats, K&N Drop in filter - do NOT do a CAI in these), and you've got myself a pretty darn close relative. Of course, the 350 will always have a narrower stance and longer wheelbase, but are you trying to win any races? Sure, the suspension and handling are going to be just slightly better in a 370, but you certainly will not hate a 350. I sure don't.

Fun car to drive. Great Handling and acceleration. Currently dealing with a problem with the power windows and have had to replace a cooling hose.

The Z car drives like a dream. It's fast and it's a lot of fun. Once you're seated, you don't want to get out. It's also not expensive to own.
