UK fag here. Any reason I shouldn't buy a 350z HR? I'm aware of the shoddy interiors.
Anything you'd recommend instead?

There's no reason not to, best bang for the buck. Get one with low miles at a dealer with warranty.
>>15899608
Because the 370z looks so much better and not nearly as dated.
>>15899619
370 has ugly tail and headlights, OP will get WAY better deal with the 350 with about the same performance
>>15899619
370 is a different price point though I think and quick check shows there's not nearly as much of a selection.
>>15899608
get one built in or before 2006, the road tax is half the amount. Check the exhaust though, they can go around the 10 year mark and cost a little bit to replace.

Since OP is interested in the HR I'd say it's worth the extra bucks having all early issues worked out
>>15899674
Nah, the hr fixed most of the problems the pre06 had
Op here, thanks for the info guys.

I'll give you some background on my situation because the britfags and amerifags will find it interesting. I actually live in IRE and have relatives in UK/NI. It's easier to say UK because I have access to that market. The prices in IRE are fucking stupid and the specs on the cars here suck, importing a 350z is about 1500 euro just for the import alone but you have much more selection.
Tax on a 350z in the UK is about 500 poundos but the same car here is 1800 euro a year tax. In IRE, cars older than a specific date in 2008 are taxed base on engine size up to a maximum of 1800 euro (which the 350z hits easily). After 2008 cars are taxed based on their emissions, since the 350z is 280mg Co2 (or something like that, I forget) it gets taxed at the highest bracket, 2300~ euro, an extra 500 per year. I'm going to get fucked in the ass no matter what I do with tax but I am aiming for HR built before July 2008 (which limits me to 1.5 years). This is all based off memory so I may have rounded some numbers off.

Beware the engines leak oil like motherfuckers, the power is not that great (you only actually get like 260 to the wheels) and it's heavy as a motherfucker.
The power band is amazing tho. Instant motherducking torque

>you have much more selection.
I mean you have much more selection when importing from uk. (As I post this there are maybe 6 350z for sale in IRE).

Just get a G35 coupe. It's slightly slower and doesn't turn quite as well, but it's basically the same car with a huge upgrade to comfyness.

Oil consumption
Rev up motor
You'll look like a boyracer faggot
>>15900085
not OP but do we even get those in the UK?
>>15900085
>but it's basically an uglier, weaker car for more money
Please never recommend Infiniti ever again.

>>15899608

What the fuck are you saying

Not anon but I think he means that the engine produces the grand majority of its power at the upper rev range.

No it's the name given to the 05/06 VQ35 iirc. Has slightly higher output, just google it.
