Speaking of technology, it would be really interesting to see a comparison of the 300HP twin-turbo 300ZX to that of the 300HP twin-turbo 335i.

I remember a few distinct things about the Nissan engine... Unlike the 335i, the turbo whine was pretty apparent. It was actually kind of reassuring to hear when they kicked in!

Also, the turbo lag was more noticable. Again, at the time I didn't think of it as a draw back. It gave the feeling of an arcade game, turning the thrusters on!

Also, that car had a suspension switch for comfort and sport. I was amazed how quick it changed and how noticeable the ride difference was, unlike other cars of the time with a similar feature.

All in all, it was a pretty nice ride, fun to drive! I definitely wouldn't trade it for my 335 though...
