Traded in 2006 350Z for 2010 Corvette

Mag350Z · 10-08-2010, 10:48 AM

Just traded my 2006 350Z with 100,000 miles for a 2010 Corvette base. The Z still had the original brake pads and clutch and was in great shape.
Chevrolet of Greenacres, West Palm Beach gave me $9000 for the Z and 0% financing for 72 months.
The motor of the Corvette is ridiculous with tons of power and torque everywhere. There is no comparison in terms of acceleration.
I actually think that the 350 had better handling and steering, although maybe I just need to get used to the size of the Corvette.
Also considered the 2011 Mustang GT and 370Z very seriously, but I have never owned a Corvette, and the 0% financing was a sweet deal.
It's only been a week, but I have to say honestly that I miss the Z in some ways. I prefered the compact dimensions and handling of the 350Z. On the other hand, the ride of the Corvette is better than the 350.
