10 of the Deadliest Cars in America

I guess the 350z is the deadliest car on the road. I've had a few close calls in my 350z, I changed the tires to all weather Goodyear's and I drive conservatively when its raining. My daily driver is a Titan which is the second deadliest car on the road. Maybe I should get a bumper sticker that says "The Grim reaper is my co-pilot".

Better sell your 350 to me cheap. Its dangerous.

This info is so weird. I was around for the first appearance of the 240s back before hens had teeth. Datsun's big shot at the sports car market - lots of 'news' and everyone was waiting for it. When it finally came out, everybody loved the styling right away and they were sorta cheap compared to other sporters - so they sold fast. My uncle bought himself one and got a pile of speeding tickets the first summer. He loved the ride so much he couldn't stop talking about it. Then he almost killed himself driving to work one snowy morning. He said the car couldn't hold the road at all, it just totally let go on a curve - and hit a pole at 50. He was so shocked by that he never bought another one, wouldn't even look at another Z. And he was a serious sporter his whole life.

So I think it's weird that Nissan would still get accused of poor handling. You think they would have it figured out by now. My Z31s are excellent so long as I keep the whole front end perfect and have very good tires. That means serious checking and maintenance, which like to I do.

Or, just maybe, 350s were bought by guys who just like the speed but it's all a bit over their heads. The 350s sure look fast but maybe they require more experienced drivers.

gee my buddy drives a titan and it doesn't seem to get in accidents nor does his z31 nor his wifes z32. My 350 nismo does fine as does my z31. Maybe it has something to do with the driving ability of the person who posted. he can't even take a decent pic.
