Need help...close to purchasing!

D.Stillwell

Thats correct, this is new for 2016 models.

Btw, that used Z has an accident on it, and they want the same price as the new Z....

I'd laugh at that dealer in the face and get the new one. I mean, unless you're retarded, really.

I digress lol...

Thank you for the wise advice I pretty much had my mind made up before, but I needed a little extra sense. The used is priced high..and I am not fond of it having an accident at all.

wtf does "certified pre-owned" mean anyway?

barebone maintenance done by the dealer? car is used. you're buying the original owner's problem. just get the new one.

zaimer

No idea..I'm not sure if there are any maintenance records right now. I do know that the car is a lease from TN. CarFax is clean..AutoCheck reports one accident in FL. Says (front left corner). It doesn't say if it was severe or minor.

I bought a 2016 Sport 6MT in July in San Francisco for 29,500. Thats 2016.!!

The fabric seats are great, and it does have Limited Slip Diff, better Brakes, SRM and BOSE as do all Sport models.

If you like the integrated NAV and heated leather seats consider a new touring, but contrary to other owners I LOVE the BOSE system in my Sport model and am very happy with that choice. The phone integration and the sound quality are excellent.

If leather or heated seats are an issue they can be added easily at a later time. Welcome | Car Leather Upholstery | Custom Auto Leather Interiors by Katzkin

Buying new gives you better financing as well as knowledge that you are starting with a fresh model with brand new warranty. I don't think your price on the CPO car is very compelling.

Assume this late in the year you should only be looking at a 2016 model year (new) at that price. I would pass on a 2015 at this point.

after reviewing those rims it came with it's no wonder the owner got into an accident.

so yea... go with the new. minus the faux engine noise.

zaimer

I'm assuming either the dealer put those rims on..or they were put on after the car was fixed from the accident (and went to auction). They are supposed to be brand new rims and tires. I'm not sure what condition the OEM wheels are in..

i also like to say i got a 2012 sport touring (only option vs base here in canuckistan) 9.5... lets say 10k mile for argument Z for 22.5k USD converted at todays $

sooooooooooooooooo definitely ripping you off. wouldn't pay more than 18k on the car with an accident on it. hell even 15k might be fair game.

D.Stillwell

I paid 27k out the door, for a brand new Z base + sport.

So what? That means nothing right....

But the point is, look around! Now is a great time to buy a Z and you can find good deals for a new base sport for under 30k all day long. A sport/touring + tech in my area runs about 32-35k.

zaimer

That is crazy if that is the case . Around me, the CHEAPEST you will touch a sport touring (within 500 miles) is 40/41K!

D.Stillwell

Where do you live? My area is considered very expensive so IDK....

You can always buy from another state, thats the beauty of it

zaimer

NW WI..there are very few Z's for sale here..and even fewer on the road lol.

That is actually what I am looking at doing. The car is a few states away and he is going to ship it to me for free .

Otherwise, there are only 2 Z's within about 75 miles of me. There is a '15 Sport, dealer is asking $34,879 and another dealer has a 2016 Base for 32~ something. I actually went and played around with the Base on Saturday to see what I thought of the new radio. Surprisingly it is pretty decent! I think it has made leaps and bounds compared to the old base model radios.

That's damn near ~30% off invoice, nice deal!

D.Stillwell

Thanks. Im extremely happy with it.

I priced my car as it sits today, and with 7500k its still worth more than I paid for it.

The downfall, there was only 1 brilliant silver Z at this price. Not many options but, I just so happened to be a fan of the silver. It felt like a done deal before I even went to test drive it really.

zaimer

Yeah..that was a DEAL!
