2010 vs 2011
 

Im torn between a blue 11 or a silver 10, both have the same equip, Touring, Sport, Nav, besides color and a couple bucks is there much difference between the 2 cars

not to my knowledge but I would check insurance rates and see if the 11 costs more just because of the year or color.

I have heard the '11's have more sound-deadening, but I don't know if that is fact or myth.

There should be a HUGE difference in price between the leftover 2010's and a new 2011. Very little, if anything different equipment-wise, but the depreciation on the 2010 is lower the minute you drive it away. That's why they're currently offering huge discounts and (I believe) still have 0% financing offers on the remaining 2010's.

If you dont have a color preference, go for the 2010 since you should be able to get it for significantly less. If you love blue, get the blue because you will regret passing it up someday.

If they both have Nav, then the 11' will have a backup camera.

Which year did they make heated side mirrors standard? I know the '11 have them as well as back up cam as an option.

2011 insurance cost more. I had mine quated for a 2010 than when I got a 2011 it whent up something like$100 for 6 months

I wanted a blue desperately and got the silver. The upside to the silver is. it kinda blends in but yet stands out. Ok what I mean is...
There are a lot of silver cars out there. So it blends in. But I have yet to see a silver car out there that is as bright, silky, milky and shiny as mine. When I brought mine home I washed, claybarred, polished and waxed my Z. it shines like diamonds and platinum jewlery. It truly stands out by comparison of any other silver out there. As far as paint quality. Silver is one of the better colors.

Blue is just sick though. Blue looks beautiful, different, incredible, sexy and unique. The only drawback is on different weather days it won't look as stand out as other days. So it won't be a hott color every single day. Some days it will just look blue. On the days where there's enough light for metallics to absorb sun. It will look sick as hell.

2010

Go for the 10 its less than the 11 and insurance will be less

You should be able to get the 10 for at least a 1500 cheaper than the 11. Silver is very easy to keep clean too.

I just purchased my 2011Z and the dealer said that the 2010s have a $2000 dealer cash on them.. so 1500 under invocie seems quite doable.

Depends on your area, i was quoted at $654/6 months, about $10 more a month then my 06 chevy cobalt if you can believe that lol.
