So when will you find out about the extend of the damages?

No idea. Hopefully asap as I doubt RACV like paying $100 per day for my hire car...

Performance orientated? Write ups say it's only 55kg heavier than coupe and same rigidity and performance as it was designed as a roadster from get go.

I'm getting prices tomorrow so I'll work it out then.

I just dropped by my dealership and my mate's getting back to me on best prices for: 09 370, roadster, 2010 370 with 19"s.

Depending on price (and RACV pay out) I've got a few options with 78K.

Fingers crossed.

Guys, is it seriously that p00fy to by a roadster?

Ahh, yes.

evse82 03-09-2010 06:49 PM

yep, 55kg (thats pretty much an extra person in the car all the time - probably more weight than what they saved using aluminium body panels), +.02 coefficient of drag, no rear spoiler or chin spoiler, higher fuel consumption and same rigidity? i'd say similar even if they say same..... it suits you though. :P

I just saw the graphite and can I say that this colour is awesome!!! It's
probably the best metallic colour I've seen on a car.

Best of all the soft top matches it brilliantly.

I'm yet to get a final price on my requests but a manul he sold went for 73k on road.

Also if I want an 2010 coupe it's gonna be a wait of a
few months!!

A quick google also says you're a knob.

Well they should be stating drive away prices now... these might be drive-away? or would it be in the 80's?

I'll sell you my limited edition titanium (not available anymore) for $60k ;)

Majestik 03-09-2010 09:17 PM

Accredited shop says it's unrepairable. Racv are
towing it to an evaluation centre tomorrow.

Not long now but the suspense is like what Evan does..
... Sucks balls.

Nice of you to offer but the Graphite is the bomb!

Dandy just got it in for the owner of the dealership yesterday but they are willing to sell it to me the moment I get the go from insurance.

The poor owner just came back from a holiday today and was just putting his etag when I told him i want it. Luckily he reluctantly said yes, so no delivery delay if all goes well.

Majestik 03-10-2010 12:19 AM

Ok. Just got an on road quote for a 2010 Graphite roadster and Shiro white coupe with - reverse sensors, tint, mud guards, reverse camera and mats.
Auto coupe - $71,529.
Auto roadster - $78, 137.

My mate says he reckons there's more push in there but to talk when insurance finalise.

What you guys think of these prices?

Colesy 03-10-2010 03:58 AM

Go with the coupe not the hairdressers car.

Ronnie - How much are guys getting them for in the Aus Prices thread? We should start a new 2010 version of that so the new buyers know. Post it up and the Admins will make it sticky.

Whats the RRP on a coupe? I guarantee I could get you one for a lot less. Let me know when your certain and I'll make a call. I expect free haircuts for a year though if you get the Raodster!

Lol. Pussy clippin' all round! :)

I'm aware the coupe price is steep but the roadster price is pretty good though right?

Still waiting. RACV chick reckons it's a pay out but awaiting final eval.

Delayed cause of the number of claims.

I've found my new car so hopefully it'll be this week :)

Majestik 03-16-2010 08:25 PM

wow... so when I want to get rid of my car for a new model all I have to do is drive into a deep puddle and get a payout of the full insured amount!

would save you losing a shitload on trade in or private sale!

hell, for what my car is insured for, I could probably get a brand new car and have money left over :rofl2:

Wouldn't that be nice! Unfortunately that would be fraud! Lol.

Fortunately for me, I'm just a klutz who got caught in a flash flood and drove into it...

Good to hear Ronnie! Do you have a replacement ready at a dealer, or do you have to wait?

I need to wait for first batch of true '10 coupes.

Towards end of April.

I called you today. I tried to bust chops and use my pending purchase to get Theo to hook me up with 2 spare sets of 19"s at a cheap price.

He called H/O etc and says that he can't do better than the staff quote I got.

I tried...

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL Yeah pretty much haha.

Well, I dunno if it's this whole wheel fiasco that's triggered it or not but I'm getting a sudden urge to move to a Vspec 2 or nur if possible. I like the idea of something that came out perfect from factory lol.

I tell you what though, buying the first model of any Nissan ain't ever happening with me again...

If you're going to move from your Z, I might as well buy an Audi or porche with my payout!

Majestik 03-24-2010 05:56 PM

RACV are fantastic! They only deducted my excess, diff of insurance policy (as I paid monthly) and diff of rego (which for me was due in April).

Now 77K richer and time to go and break some balls and get a good price on a new Z!

jekel 03-25-2010 07:32 PM
