A little help PLEASE!!!
 
Hey Guys

I just pay'd off my 04 350z and was thinking about trading it in for a 370z. I test drove the 370z and fell in love with this car. I was wondering if anyone has traded in their 350z for the 370z and if so are you happy with the exchange.

I have about 8,000 in cash to put as a down payment as well, and was wondering if I should trick out my 350z with the cash, or put it towards a down payment for the 370z.

I appreciate the comments!!!!

Thanks AK370z I just hope that they give me a reasonable amount for my 350. I have about 52,000 miles on it though so im not expecting much out of it. I just hope that I get a reasonable amount for my 350.

Have you checked the Blue Book value on it yet? Also, do you have a Carmax in your area? The reason I ask is that in my experience, Carmax has always given me more when I sell them a car than any dealer has been willing to give me on trade-in. And I mean a $1-2k difference! So what I've done is sold my car to Carmax, then go buy the new car.

With 8K you could APS twin turbo your 350 and blow the doors off the 370. You would even be walking vettes and the like. That's what I would do fwiw.
Having your car paid off is like, the american dream, lol. I would try to stay without a car payment for as long as I could.
Besides, if you hold out, they will refine the 370 with better options and equipment than they have now.

you should sell your 350z because you will get a better deal if you sold it yourself.

In many ways, we are in the throes of the last hurrahs regarding the petrol driven world. With technologies changing and the 370Z personifying so much of the 240Z—I say to go for the 370Z!

I've had my Z33 for over 6 years (Since 10/2002), so it's time for a change. I don't mind first year cars since I never really regret buying my '03 Z. I'm content with my Z33 as well in terms of power and performance. It's time for a new project, and the Z34 is everything better than my Z33... no complaints there!

If you decide to buy the 370 (love mine recommend buying) if you trade it in you will get tax credit. The question about selling it or trading it in is how much will be applied to the purchase. If you sell your vehicle yourself you will need to sell it for enough to make up the tax difference because if you sell it you will need to pay the taxes. If you don't sell it but trade it in the taxes get applied towards your new purchase. If you howver, find a buyer and arrange a price the dealership can take the vehicle as a trade-in and sell it to the buyer for the price you agreed to..............A little "hands on" but the process will squeeze just a bit more towards your purchase.

My 2 cents......

Thanks for the info, yea I plan on trading her in to the dealership. I believe I can get more out of it that way. Any ideas on which color is best to buy. I love black but maintenance is a pain in the ***. LOL, I love the blue hated it in pictures but in person it took my breath away.LOL
