I got the perm ban for (iirc) blasting those guys for bashing the 370. The reason listed on my ban was "troll," despite being a member there for years.

Eff that site, and anyone stupid enough to not leave it.

Change is usually only accepted by those who can afford it.

Have you seen the prices people want for their used 09? 29K 30K? It's just as bad

Please look at this joke of a ad for a Z sale. This is a new Z from 2009 that hasn't sold and it has NO TOURING PACKAGE, NO SPORTS PACKAGE! Its probably a demonstrator for all we know and he's asking over $36,000. Lmfao! What a joke. This car retailed at 31,900 in 2009!!
When I do searches, I see ridiculous adds like this all day long. Its ludacris.
We are 4 months away from the 2011 models. 2009 produced only 10,000 units of the 370z, yet, and there are still hundreds of 09 models on the market. And all being sold like they are 2010 models or even higher... I don't believe that there's no market for this car. I believe Nissan dealers bought into the rave reviews and are just plain old trying to get over so it won't sell on the prices they attempt to get them for. What's your take on this ad?

Dealers are probably thinking back to the 350z days when they held prices well into the 3rd model year. The problem is:

1. There wasn't a gap between Z models to have pent up demand
2. The Economy
3. Better competition
4. Price has creeped up while buying power on average has decreased - see #2.

I personally wouldn't consider buying a 350z, not because I don't think it's any good. It's probably a very good car to drive but rather because it looks pretty bland with unexciting lines. The inside of the 350z looks uninspiring also. All in all the 370z is so much of a nicer car to have. I must say that knowing that people in this forum are much more mature than the 350z forum has helped me in my decision of getting a 370z; I don't want to drive a chav car.

While the 350z looks a little dated now, it looked very unique in 2003.

this is true, when they came out, I was absolutely in love with the styling, now they just look kinda bland.

i am going to be honest-had a 2003 350Z but sold it for a 2010 370Z which is a vast improvement. i did enjoy my 350 while i had it.
i never belonged previously to any forum however-and i really enjoy this one.
