370z continuiously variable transmission.

shadowdrgn0 · 06-20-2011, 10:31 AM

I just had a stealership try to tell me that these cars come with a continuously variable transmission... I tried to argue it. He wasn't having it. (facepalm)

Yep and the car has NOS, free refills for the first year.

I think just about every Nissan model except for the 370Z and the GT-R (and the trucks) come with a CVT now, so he was probably just going off the sales training he got on the Altima

I cant remember all the stuff that the service manager tried to tell me about my Z; it comes with an oil cooler from the factory, and in order to remove the bumper we need to take off both fenders too.

Now he asks me things about the car, as opposed to the other way around.

Find another dealer.. asap

Wow your sales guy is a genius. Go across the street to the Honda dealership, they'd be able to tell you much more accurate info about the Z.

kenchan · 06-20-2011, 08:26 PM

the 2011's come with 9speed AT.

Did he also tell you that MSRP is the lowest price you'll get?

Hambone1 · 06-21-2011, 01:16 AM

Wait...they come with transmissions? Mine has a cutout in the floor with just enough room to pedal realllllly fast....

GNS · 06-21-2011, 06:46 AM

The reason why it's called a Z is because it uses a unique engine configuration specific to Nissan, 6 cylinders in a Z pattern. It says 'V6' because they forgot the extra '-' on the engine cover so they turned it 90 degrees so it wouldn't look like >6, which would mean 'more than 6 cylinders' or <6, which would be a double heart compressed into one symbol.

You can only get the CVT with the DDC option.
