Yeah I'm going with the idea that the 370Z is less flashy...am I wrong? It just seems to blend in better, Corvette stands out everywhere no matter what color you get it in.

Eh, I guess there was some cred that came with the brand name, but all that rep was lost the minute they saw the interior. And it's not like I had vettes from the 80s, I had two 03s and an 06. I've mentioned in other threads that it was actually embarrassing when people would get in it. I could see what they wee thinking in their eyes: "You paid how much for this?"

Edit: Now the vette engine in the Z ... that would be sex on silk.

So how does the 06 Vette compare to the 09 370 performance wise? and the interior is that much better? What made you trade for the nissan?

Yes, you are wrong (and I own two older Corvettes)!

Sounds like you need to wait on buying a new vehicle until you decide what you're looking for...

It's all academic gumflapping since the dealer is going to offer him $25K or less on his Maxima...

In other words, it's all because Maxima09 ain't gonna get what he wants on his trade-in to make the deal work.
