My mate has the 350Z and the Brembo brakes (if you get that option) are horrendously expensive to service. They have a big blind spot, they're not very refined (lots of gearbox and road noise) and the interior plastics are pretty ordinary. There's a large strut brace across the boot as well. Still, it's a fun, involving car to drive.
Call me stubborn...
