it's all subjective, so listing won't do you any good. I'm not here for a debate.
but when dealerships are selling z's upwards of 60k and you can buy a low mileage nismo or a one even already built TT for around 30k I can't justify spending that much for one.

but I do agree, the z has a unique look that can't be replicated.

Yea, I didnt catch you "new" comment ..my bad...buying any car new is a horrible idea and I agree there are better cars that you can buy used instead of a new Z. Like a used Z....

It's mission impossible, is it? I knew you couldn't list one, let alone multiple cars. No worries, no need to debate or bicker. No car is perfect or immune from quality, build, mechanical or electrical issues including much higher priced exotics. Overall, the Z is a very good platform. It has proven itself overtime and will continue to put smiles on peoples faces for many years. BTW, where did you come up with the $60k figure for a Z? Did it have a Rolex in the glove compartment?

dealers here sell them for 50k after fees and taxes yes they get upwards of 60k
That's for a 2017 nismo
I believe base with no add ons start around 30k

But yeah I'm considering 60k for different car choices lolol
Honestly wanted to look into the Q series from Infiniti, need more room again.

Infiniti was one of the ones I researched and owned a G37...highly reliable and great if you buy used. New? your values will be cut in half in a couple of years. Plus they are a bit on the boring side in the looks department..
