The 350Z is a joke. Go to the 350Z forums and there are a lot of complaints about the shady quality of the car. People are reporting bald tires at 4 K miles. One owner went through 3 sets of tires by the time he hit 10 K.

Comparing the two lookwise is the equivalent of Rosie O'Donnell and Marilyn Monroe. The latter being the Crossfire. I have yet to see an uglier sport car than the 350. The convertible is even more pathetic looking. The car doesn't even retain the same shape. It looks like a pick up truck made for midgets when the top is down. Only bad thing about the Crossfire is having the paparazzi follow you when you go out. Car is a show stopper.

The car isn't fast enough argument gets a little old too. The car has plenty of power for the road. Anyone needing anything faster is just going to run into a lot of tickets. A clown in an M5 was motioning for me to race him today. I ignored him and kept doing 50 in the 50 while he sped off doing about 80. Wow...was I impressed. So a 350 Z will take this car 0-60...whoop dee do. A 20 thousand dollar Dodge Neon SRT4 will take the 350 Z out.

A german made and engineered SLK in an american body that sticks to the road like gum to asphalt with a 35 K MSRP that you can get for 26 K is a no brainer.
