Tighter, Edgier, Faster, Quicker.
Nice not being a CAB.
Steering is tighter, more responsive.
370z a bit heavier in the front. Getting use to.
P-car is less aggressive driving. 370Z has a very aggressive feel.
P-car transmission is better but getting used to the 370z's.
370z grips the road better, no over steering.

Very fun to drive. SPG: Smiles Per Gallon
The Nissan is a very nice car but its probably not fair to compare it to a much older higher mileage sports car. Comparing my Jeep JK Rubicon to my brothers 99 TJ would be quite lopsided as well.

Compare the same year xxxZ to the same year 996 and the Porsche would win but the Nissan probably wouldn't blow the engine up during the comparison trials.

Either way, nice Nissan. Sorry you got screwed by another defective 996.
