The Nissan 350Z is another car with major blindspot activity. My friend (who is totally NOT into cars, BTW) wants to buy one, so he asked me to go with him to give my honest opinion on the car. He's gonna go from a 110 hp 4-door Cavalier to a 287-hp sports car.
Anyway, I test-drove it after him, and that thing has some serious blind-spots, especially for me since I'm only 5'3". After I got back to the dealership, I was going to back the car into a parking spot, and couldn't see anything. It was ridiculous. How anyone could parallel park that thing is beyond me.
The car itself was pretty fun, it was an automagic with the Tiptronic-style shifter. It handles great, but it didn't really feel like it had 287 hp. Maybe they need some break-in miles.
