Why so many zs?

Jeffblue

i've also seen countless threads of 'my Z for sale' with pretty strange reasons like
1. me and my girlfriend broke up, but we bought the car together, and had it titled in her name, but i paid for the whole thing
2. i decided i want a corvette 2 weeks later
3. i realized i can't afford the car 2 weeks later
4. i don't like the color anymore
5. i want the sports package, but for some reason, didn't even think about it when i was actually buying the car
6. wife making me sell the car that i didn't really win in the sweepstakes because she wears the pants in our relationship.

to the more reasonable:
1. growing family
2. divorce
3. moving
4. loss of job
and so on.

According to the 370 wiki, the car has won this award:

Kelley Blue Book's Best Resale Value Award (2010)

I thought resale value was a strongpoint of the Z, but I guess it is only when comparing to other sportscars.

It's resale isn't bad as long as you didn't overpay to begin with.

I remember back in the early '00s when Mitsubishi was having that 0/0/0 thing going on people were buying the Eclipse like they were free. Because there were so many deals on brand new cars from the dealer the used market suffered.

If you didn't beat them down when you first bought the car and just said "I'll take it" at the first price the dealer gave, YOUR resale on the car is going to be poop. But if you got them down to a good price like Bullet said then your resale is probably going to be pretty decent.

Mine is for sale for the above reason. I LOVE this car, but bought an '08 WRX STI so I could have room for a car-seat for my 3 month old daughter.

Since when do new cars hold their resale value in the first year? There's that old saying about "drive it off the lot and you just lost a bunch of $", 'ya know...

And who says everyone's unloading their new Z's - that's clearly not true.

And most, not all, but most of these fall under the subtitle of, "I couldn't really afford it in the first place."
