While both front ends of the 370z leave something to be desired. Black out the fang area and the Z looks incredibly masculine and intimidating. With the new front. It looks like you had an accident and replaced your front end with a 350z and did a cheap modification by replacing the front signal lights with LED's.

Well shoot. so its my first manual car....
gonna have to ask my friend to drive it home for me
LOL fail...

Are you sure your not just buying into the 2013 brand spanking new hype? Unless your loaded, why not save cash and get a good deal on a 12?

Wait for the 2014.

Just drive it around the lot for 5 mins and you'll have it down.

Mine is already black... From the factory. Well, black cherry, close enough for me. :D

I do agree about the front, as I said I will reserve final judgement until I see it in person but overall it does appear to be a step back. I owned an HR 350Z in 2009 and I could not convince myself that the 370Z wasn't a huge improvement cosmetically and this does remind me of the 350Z front.

Totally agree that's why I'm getting a 13. 09-12 owners love the looks of their cars and rightly so, it is a gorgeous car.

For me, I personally like the looks of the 13 better. Front end and sport pkg wheels look fresh to me and will differentiate my car from the pack, vs getting something that has been the same for the past 3 years.

As for resale value years down the road, you will not make up the difference paid for touring vs non touring. But the bottom line is, get what you want......it's your $$$$!

I might have to disagree on your last few sentences, i feel that the touring version in PW with 6mt will have a very good resale, if im buying for 41k then 36k, 5k devalue isnt a big drop in my books. but that also depends on how many miles it has.

But im sure people will opt for the touring if they can get it for cheaper, so imo my resale will be very good if not excellent

+2 I cant describe it any better than that.

to clear things up OP mean original poster right?

Forgive me for not explaining my point clearly. If I took a 2013Z 6mt Touring and paid $4,000 more than a 2013Z 6mt Base and sold it 7 years down the road. I would not get $4,000 more at selling time than the base, all miles and looks being equal.

Would a Touring 12 PW 6mt have good resale value a couple of years down the road? Of course it would.

Original Post(er) Opening Post(er) you are correct

i think the 13s look dope, except the wheels.

I like the leds and stuff.

Go for the 12 or 11 for that matter the onl difference in the z is the bumper you could order one and have it painted for less. The wheels are different they look cool.

^^^

That's what I would do if anything! Search for a quality sale on a used Z and freshen it up! Many of us want the new new regardless of performance/looks/total cost!
