I've driven a 2003 350z and I didn't care for it too much. As fast and great as the performance is in a car like that, it also feels extremely cheap. And I think that trend continued in the next generation. IMO, I think Nissan can get away with that because most of the people who would want a car like that, probably don't care for luxury. They want a better 0-60 and could care less if the whole interior feels like a plastic toy. Whereas, people like me buy something like a Boxster when they want to go fast... but look really good and have some luxury on the side while you do it.

Personally, I'd take the Boxster anyday of the week. I think Porsche makes a much better and higher quality car. It has that distinct look compared to the overly generic types of cars that you see in Japan. That and you can impress more people by saying your drive a Porsche over a Nissan. There's no doubt that the 370z will sell, that's a given. There's an obvious demand for cars like that. But I really don't think you can compare something delicate and classy like a Boxster to something like a 370z, which is pretty much a jackhammer that'll beat you up everytime you drive it.
