Almost ready to take the plunge...

6MT · 01-16-2010, 09:19 AM

Well..... did not want to announce this too soon but...

If everything falls into place in these next few days, then my time on these forums will soon be at an end.

Looks like I'm going to take the plunge and order a 2010 ZR1 'Vette. I'm ready for all the flaming that's due. Just keep it tasteful, ok? The performance numbers are what sold me and after a test drive, I could not resist. So I'm off to the dealer later this morning to see if I can swing this deal.

(sorry)

2010 ZR1, wow, did not know Nissan came out with a new model.

Anyways, congrats on the new upgrade (hopefully).

Awesome.

IDZRVIT · 01-16-2010, 04:49 PM

Nice choice. Hope you can make the deal!

That's going to be quite the hit on the Z and I'm sure you've read all the previous Corvette owner's here on the forum opinion and why they switched. The ZR1 is an awesome car even though its not my choice - enjoy!

Sorry to see your going to the other side. But I do understand ... I think.

Keep in touch and check in once in awhile and you can see what your 370Z could have become

p.s. what are you going to do with your Volks?

6MT · 01-18-2010, 10:54 AM

Update: Went to the dealer on Saturday. No luck in negotiations. I'll see how badly they want to make this sale in the coming days. As it stands now, there is no deal and the 370 is safe.

wow. i am surprised that you would want to get a new car after only 1 year

The 370z is a fast car but the zr1 is a whole lot faster

i remember i got quite dizzy after having gone on the "mission to mars" ride at disneyworld, i figure the ride on the corvette zr1 at full acceleration must be even more brutal

Actually, the dealership and I were about $6k apart. We'll see if they want to deal.
