Good point...but if his credit is good enough to get into another Z why not just refinance at a lower rate and pay it off?

As far as the engine goes, the 370 engine is the same as the '07-'08 HR 350. It is an HR motor, just a little bigger.


Just a piece of advice from an old fart that did it for too many years, get away from putting yourself in the "upside down" state. It will only cause you more stress than you need to deal with.
The excitement that I get from having a fully paid for car is a lot more than having a new shiny car. :twocents:

Go for the 13+ then most will think its a 350z . God damn, that front bumper on the 13+, why?

$3k seems very reasonable for a 5 years newer car with warranty assuming all is similar.

Another point is that if you are already max'ed out on the 09 model financially, then it is a mull point.

2014 pearl white 370z sport package: 23,230 miles $25,900
2014 red 370z sport package: 9,560 miles $25,900
2009 red 370z sport: 16,100 miles $22,900

Thanks for all the reply. There are a lot of 2013 370z nearby but their all automatics, I'm looking for a sport package six speed. It look like one of my family member is interested in my 350z so hopefully he'll take that and I can just grab the 370z. Below is a pic of my 350z and G35

For sure I already know I'm going to be upside down on the valuation which in term will add more money to the newer z that I initially want. The amt on the 14 z is $25,900. Not bad but danm. I guess I'll try to negotiate with the dealer to see what happen. I love that 14 pearl white 370z though. Danm sexy

what you posted below would answer my question here but i was too lazy to erase this part lol

in my opinion i'd go for the red one, it has less miles. the white one had a lot of driving done to it.

now how much do you still owe on your 350?
i would do a private sale, the dealership will probably give you 2-4k less then you could get from a private sale.

the 14 red one based on these numbers only.

Test your negotiating skills, you should be able to push it down to 25 flat without too much difficulty.

Others have a point, if you're stretching too thin to be able to afford a rainy day then do not bother to get it.

the 14 white based on that mileage was a DD + travel car.... but 23k miles is starting to reach 90ST (another user on this forum who clocked over 200k miles)...

Birdfan67 05-28-2015 08:19 AM

Newer model year will net you a better interest rate and term.. $3k equates to about $60-75 more per mo.. if payment is not a major concern, then roll with the 2014. My concern is how much neg your rolling into your new loan ?? if its 3-4k , then I would consider the 14 as well...I'd rather be upside-down in a newer car with warranty...than a car potentially with none on it due to age... which segsways into the next question ?.. extended warranty ?? your probably looking at 2k for piece of mind...please have some type of warranty driving off the lot, 1 major repair can cost $$$$ .I would save some cash to offset your neg...find like an 2011-2012 with certified warranty on it...spending/financing less.
Your insurance likely will be cheaper as well...sometimes timing is everything...good luck !

THIS^^^ Never go upside down on a depreciating liability item.
Be patient there is always another "good deal" waiting.

I'll take the red one. However, common sense tells me that something isn't right about the price/car. Why would the 2014's be the same price when there is 14k miles difference?

Yea I was thinking about that too, especially since both of the 2014 z are from the same dealer. Something fishy here. Because if this was the case then the white Z should be at least 1-2 grand cheaper right?

I still owe about $16,300, I'm assuming the trade in value would be around 13-14 grand so thats 2 grand rolling over..

And the thing i find kind of odd is how come the same year, model, package with totally different mileage be the same price..wierd

jchammond 05-31-2015 10:00 AM

09' has lost it's 5yr. 60k mile power train warranty-don't forget that... Car is overpriced-except if sold by individual. You should be able to get the 09 for under 20 at least; if not 18-19
