Traded in my Z a couple of weeks ago for a Mercedes, I know guys, don't bash me too bad. They paid it off in full (my load value) and my bank really sweetened the deal with an extra low % loan so it was hard to pass up. To be honest I was ready to get back into a larger car again.

Now with that said I can honestly say that I don't regret the deal (remember I'm old) but I do miss my Z after only a couple of weeks. For anyone who bashes this car is just silly. You really don't know how much fun the Z is to drive until you're not in it anymore. I can see myself getting another one again sometime in the future, especially if Nissan makes some much needed changes to it.

You guys made it fun being here. Very informative with any issue that the car may have had and with your upgrades. I actually learned a lot from reading most of your post.

You guys and gals kick major ***. Thank you for welcoming me in for my brief time here, I do appreciate it very much. Hope to see ya'll in the future and I'll pop in from time to time to see what is new.

What model Mercedes did you get? See my sig.

What did you get? I considered a '16 GLA45 AMG before deciding on the Z last week.

Congratulations on the new car. As far as the Z goes, remember cars will come and go, enjoy the new ride. The new Z will be out in a couple of years (maybe) you can always get back in one. Post up pictures of the ride.

three useless posts in less than 2 min on the same thread.

For the OP, congrat on the new ride.

Generally, my take on it is this:
One buys a Z for the benefit of his/her self.
One buys a Benz for the benefit of the people one knows.
