    2004 Nissan 350Z Roadster Touring.

    Bought it because I don’t fit into a Miata. I like having a more powerful engine too.

    I’d like to eventually buy an EV, but modern cars suck. They’re too big and handle like shit because of their size and electric steering. I want something small and nimble that is reasonably fast and handles like a dream; the 350Z checks all of those boxes. Literally point the car where you want to go, and it just goes there, even with all the driver assists turned off. I see why it’s a popular drift car.

      I’d suggest reconsidering wrt the electric steering.
      I had a 2004 RX8 which had electric steering and it was excellent. Many automotive journalist seem to agree that, despite a rough start, electric steering is just as good as hydraulic steering now.
