Best bet, if you don't want the touring, just install an aftermarket system.
whats a good aftermarket system? Basically I want to find one that works as great as the 370z's touring one...
I just can't justify paying an additional 4000 or so for touring and then a nav package.

Yea, that is a major discussion all over this forum. It's all a matter of preference. I, like a few other members, felt that the level of integration of the stock navi was worth the cost. No aftermarket unit will integrate to the cars computer like the stock. And, no other unit will visually fit the interior as well as the stock, both in style and loction. The Bose system is not the best, but it works just fine for me, and I took it for what it is to get the nav. I have ABSOLUTELY no regrets going for the stock nav and Bose system.

I had to have heated leather and nav, so I went Touring. Otherwise I would have gone Nismo. I can't suggest a good aftermarket, but there are plenty of threads about different units if you have some time to do a search and read them.

wow thanks for the input! I guess Touring it is then!

I'm hoping maybe I can find a 2011 touring with nav, that way the price will be a bit cheaper!

Otherwise I'm looking at 800 a month to finance one according to their online payment calculator!><

No problem! Get what makes you happy. You can definitely go cheaper with a base model and aftermarket. But I KNOW that I would not have been happy with that. I bought my 2007 350Z as base, and regretted it, and the stock nav in that year wasn't as nice as the one for the 2011. Backup camera included in 2011, Music Box (HDD), USB & RCA plugs in center console cubby, DVD player, 6 Disc and all integrated. Makes me happy.

Plenty of preowned options out there... I am no where near that payment since I bought a 40th 1 year older (it was mint too).
