yeah, and those issues aren't fixed through warranty

budget $2k or so for CSC replacement. might as well throw that heavyass flywheel away too and swap in a lightweight one. it changes the car

What about the lower ECU memory on the newer cars? If I had to replace mine I would be looking for a '12-'17 nismo

As the other poster said, it's your money! Your decision to make. However, I just bought a 2019 base with 39,000km for 21,5000 CAD = 16,315 USD from a GM dealer, and I'm happy to have that 9,000 left in my pocket!

I do agree with you....the blackened lights - and black exhaust panels surprisingly make a big difference to me. In fact, I did not like the black rims until I saw it with the new combo....I hated black rims (reminds me of winter steelies) - but they match well with the other small changes. I know also that many prefer the old fangs, but I like the bright DRL LED's, I think it modernizes the look. Of course all of those are minor subjective cosmetics.

That's a pretty good price! But I live in Vancouver where everything is overpriced. I remember seeing a used 2019 like yours from a Subaru dealer on Autotrader here and it was $26000. For that price differential, a new one just made sense.

Anyways, everywhere I go, I see people driving around in fully loaded Honda Civic Touring models that also cost $30k CAD. Even after having paid full price for my new 370z, I have no issues with it whatsoever when I consider I purchased a brand new, 6-cylinder, 2 seat sports car for the price of a Civic. Where else can you get that?

Oh believe me, here in Alberta, that kind of price is asked for too.....it's one of the reasons I couldn't pass it up once I got them to that price, even though I hadn't planned to buy now. At one point, I said I may pass and wait till next year, and they came down more - they admitted later, they always have cars they didn't want to keep over the winter....

Yes, I can certainly see why for 4000 difference you might well just go new.

Agreed. It's a great value - and actually quite rare here. During the summer you see them here....but not all that often. It's a land of SUV, truck, corollas, civics, and luxury cars...... In the last month, I have had a ton of compliments and people looking - which I did not expect lol. A new(er) Z still catches people's eye in this land of boring vehicles....

The base is so barebones - but at least they come with the backup camera now. In any case, I'm not driving it for tech or comforts - which I could always add later. Wouldn't have minded having the LSD, but I'm not going to the track, and for the street, I don't need it even for aggressive driving! :-)
