Nismo 370 coming to Canada?!

djpathfinder

They may not have completely updated their website yet. I remember they didn't have any info (website) on the 40th Anniv in early March when I was looking. They have a new shade of grey, gun metallic, for 2011. I thought black cherry was just a one year colour for 2010, but I guess not.

If you're interested in a back up cam, check out this thread
Group Buy/Interest - 2011 Rear View Camera
and PM bdl99 for 2010 configuration. The group buy happened about a month ago but there's a few people still getting in on this late. This is plug and play and virtually OEM-like.

I can also vouch for the group buy! I was in on that! I would go that route as well seems very straight forward and as close to plug and play as you will get!

djpathfinder - I agree I find it amusing that Nissan can just publish certain things about production but then do something completely different, like the black cherry colour! Also with our 40th's I found out that our Canadian 40th's don't even count in the "1000 40th's produced!" its a crock! there's 1000 in the USA, 370 in Europe, and 120 in Canada! o well in the middle east you can order 40 quartz as a stock colour package for the 2011's


DIZZY - I have seen one in the KW area a roadster and it is FUGLY IMO it is red with wine top.....I am not a fan of the wine top at all. But your right there's not many red ones.

^ side note there is a 2010 white roadster for sale in the KW area....... that was rare, I had really only seen your white one before........and one heading the opposite way on the highway lol...

umm I wonder how many KM are on it....?

I know the guys around my area(greg vann nissan) that didn't want to sell to me have one with over 4-5000 kms on it. They try to sell it every once and a while. It has had the owner driving it after about 3-4 months of sitting on the lot in the spring. I have I love-hate relationship with the dealership, as in we love to hate each other!

Anyway ya there are probably a few around that are used or "demo". Just gotta look for those interested..... I am was so happy getting mine with next to no kms on it! BRAND F*CKING NEW!!!!18kms!!

When I was in the market for a new car last year, I was really thinking Bmer. I just love the 3 series coupe. But, the reason I didn't buy it - they have to be the most common car on the road, and I hate to be one of the pack. So, I looked for something a little more unique.

Red, yellow, 40th....and now Nismo. One thing I do know, there aren't a lot of 370's around.....they turn heads.....and I'm very happy with my unique car!

ouch 11000! That's high, more then me anyway and I drove it every day (DD) in the summer, until nov 1.


Hopefully the buyer gets a decent deal for that much of a "demo"........


IMO a car that's been demoed=demolished

Way too many people getting rid of their 370 lately... Is the car really that bad?
Impractical, I understand that, but then one should have considered it before buying

It's not the car that's bad but bad decisions in buying a sports car. The Z is not a mule to do the daily chores of getting to work and the groceries. It can be used for that but it wasn't designed for that. First time buyers or those that can't afford a second vehicle realize the Z is not so fun when in rush hour or driving in the snow. The happiest Z owners are likely the ones that own a second or third (mule) vehicle. I do very little spirited driving and I don't track the car either. I have zero issues with the Z. It's a great vehicle and very reliable. My 2 cents.

Hey now. I use the Z as a mule to get to work, and also to buy groceries (not a lot of groceries of course). I'm a first time buyer with no other vehicle. True, the Z sucks in rush hour but I usually avoid driving during these times. I drove the Z on the snow yesterday, and yes it was fun I do LOTS of spirited driving and track the car regularly.

Obviously you don't have a problem double hatting your Z as a mule You enjoy your Z because it's not 'bad". Most folkks do enjoy their Z. For the few selling their Z's, there is a reason but I don't believe it's because the Z is bad. I also agree with the comments in your other post for some reasons why folks purchase and sell their Z's.

Exactly what I mean. Do people really buy a sports car before they are committed to the side effects?

In some cases, yes. They have a dream to own a sports car or whatever. The deal is done and the dream is now a reality and the side effects set in. Imho, any 'dream' vehicle in order to be thoroughly enjoyed must be affordable, not come in between your significant other/family and the realization that it's not practical in the sense that it's a 'like to have' and not a necessity. Also, cars are not normally investments unless you indulge in car collecting. The early Z's are not a highly desirable collectible in general terms when compared to other '60 and early '70's vehicles such as muscle cars. That said, high performance imports are now common like the original muscle cars. So maybe 40 years down the road, the '11 Nismo or 40th Anniversary may become highly valued and sell at auction in the six figures.

You always see lots of semi new cars on the used car market. It happens all the time. Some people don't like what they bought. Some people cannot afford the financial burden. Some like to try out new cars and basically change cars every couple of years or so. Some move out and travel abroad. Some require more practicality out of their car. Some acquire more wealth and decide to upgrade to something more upscale. Many reasons why people switch cars. It's nothing specific to the Z.
