Didn't realize how pricey the Z can be in other countries
 
So I was in Ireland last week on a buisness trip. Beautiful country. I noticed everyone seemed to be driving tiny cars or midsize ones with small diesel engines. So out of curiosity, I checked the price of a 370Z since I hadn't seen a single one out there (or any sports car for that matter).

The MSRP on a 370Z with A/T and Navigation was over 62000 Euro!!! That's about $90,000!!! Freakin nuts! As much as I loved it there, this scared hell out of me. The thought of driving a diesel for the rest of my life is heartbreaking.

The z In Hong Kong is priced at HKD 670,000. Thats around Usd 85k. And gas is at 8.73 per gallon lol.

I miss the states.

PapoZalsa 05-31-2011 09:21 PM

In PR a 370Z is around $50K.

2ndChance 05-31-2011 09:58 PM

$57,000 USD in Panama

And Minimum wage is $1.8 per hour.

Only in the US the Z is considered an "affordable sports car"

even in canada, a Z with sports pakage is 50 ish, depending on the province and the taxes in that province.

I paid $65K Australian for mine and at 1.07:1 exchange rate that was US$69.5K

I know of an individual in Oz who has purchased a NISMO in CA and a front cut JDM from Japan to turn into a deidcated RHD race car. With the AU$ t US$ s favourable, he has a landed a car at 55% of AUstralian sticker price. It is to be a dedicated race car, so he didn;t "have" to purchase the front clip, but having done so, he has all the bits required to make it RHD (as well as spare engine and g/box for instance).

Gas here is A$1.55 per litre, not as expensive as elsewhere but still more expensive than the US.

I agree, only in he US is a 370Z cnsidered affordable .. here it is a premium vehicle, marketed by Nissan as the "cheaper halo" model (GTR being the ultimate halo).

It's just usually due to import taxes in countries. It's usually the case in the developing countries too, I can speak for India being from here - an extra 120% or so in taxes. So the price more than doubles up automatically.

But off the record, most people don't pay "double the money", they usually bribe customs officials during the import process and just flaunt to the world they drive the car that they paid 2x for. I can speak for India if not other nations.

ZeeingAround 06-02-2011 10:15 AM

Chan Cee Hoe,



You would be best to purchase a Zcar in the united states. Come over for as long as your VISA will allow and then store or sell the car when you are done. you would have a great vacation and get to drive without all those taxes. You would probably pay less too.

TypeOne 06-02-2011 10:32 AM

Hey if anyone overseas would like to own some US spec 370Zs... let me know.

I can export them and save you a ton of $$.

:-D

in India the z sells for around RS. 50 - 60 Lacs, which converts to around 110k USD.

When I was in bombay earlier this year didnt see any Z's but did see a GTR!! dont want to find out what the might be selling for!

Crazy prices :eek:

As with many developing countries, the rich and insanely rich. The middle class until fairly recently is close to non-existant. This is fairly true in the Phillippines where a USED 370z can still fetch around 3.5 million P or roughly $80,000 USD. I don't think Nissan dealers there even carry the Z new. I haven't checked in a while, but that was true about a year ago.

Last I checked (when news about the Z being available for production sale in India came out, and my parents excitedly emailing me a copy of the newspaper LOL) they were gonna manufacture 7 Z's in the Nissan India plant, and import 7, so 14 overall in the country!

Yep. We have it good in the US. My Z06 costs $120K Canadian even though the exchange rate is almost even. Rediculous. I would have demanded they replace the Cobalt steering wheel with a DSV one at that price, had I had to pay it!

kenchan 08-17-2011 10:39 AM

not to forget parking space you need to pay for, insurance, can't really use it for normal things due to only having 2 seats. it's really a luxury to have this car in other countries especially in places like japan.

NFSZ86 08-17-2011 10:39 AM

Well Mexico the Z base model with MT is 45000 $$ usd when I was out there I asked if you can get the sport and touring and the guy at the dealer didn't know wth I was talking abt I guess there's not enough enthusiast out there. And I was in Mexico city so u see ferraris lambos and other exotic cars all the time =)

Waltong 08-17-2011 03:53 PM

The fact they are rare in the UK is such a reason to have one! I commute on our biggest motorway to work and if I were to see another 370 in a couple of months I'd be lucky!

Exclusivity is everything! :D

KingZee 08-17-2011 04:04 PM

From this day forward I'm just gonna pretend I drive a $100k car and just be an a**hole to everyone :ughdance:

Vegitto-kun 08-17-2011 04:21 PM
