This is why the z is a hard sell!

Anyone who doesn't research a $30k purchase is a douche.

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.

TongMan · 07-20-2010, 08:03 AM

I was so glad I didn't buy the 350z two years ago...good decision.

you couldn't be more on target. but most people who buy mustangs are
19to25 year old girls,though nothing wrong with that.
I'd let my daddy by me one to. or people who by them for the looks and
because its a "mustang" and have no idea what there buying.
here in texas there are more mustangs than roaches.

Well I did buy a 350Z 2 years ago and it help me learn about the new Z technology since my last Z was an used 300ZX in 2000.

So I was not blind on some issues when I jump in my 370Z.

To me any Z car has its unique features that you might like or not.

Is all about being a Z enthusiast.

When I was 17 I bought me a Mustang because it was 'fast' and because it was a Mustang. And what 16 year old girl doesn't love a dude driving a Mustang? Anyway, I had no idea about performance or anything of that sort, but the car turned out to be the best car I ever owned and I learned how to appreciate cars and the like and became a bit of an ethusiast. But maybe I'm the exception rather than the rule.

Lemers · 07-20-2010, 06:23 PM

I have nothing against mustangs. I was looking at the 2010 until I realized the 2011 would a lot better. I just think that someone who doesn't research a $30k purchase should just give it to me and I'll buy them a Nissan versa.

My friend bought his 2010 a few weeks before they announced the 2011 changes. He's still kicking himself to this day

Lemers · 07-20-2010, 06:45 PM

Ford annoounce it late cause they still had 2010s to sell. But C&D, edmunds, R&T was talking about the power bump in 2011 before the 2010 body style change. So I don't feel bad for those people who bought a 2010 mustang.

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?

Funny, I just paid under invoice for my 370Z Touring Model with Sport Package, Nav, Floor Mats, & Trunk Mat in Platinum Graphite. $39,474.00 and no tax because my trade was worth more and paid for.

Hey, I like your way of thinking, my first car was a 66 GT Mustang, then I bought an 2007 Shelby GT, and then a 2010 GT500. Now I own, of course a 2010 370Z loaded.
