Nissan 370Z Forum  

Saw a 2013 Z on the road today....

I went on the website and SR is not available for the NISMO..............only the Magma Red. I was sad. It would have been nice to get the Midnight Blue on

I'll be honest, I was holding out for the 13 because of the LED dl's but once I seen it I felt like it was looking more like a 350 not a 370 and I didn't want that!

Thats how I fel, but it works out great for those who still like the exterior styling of the 350 but want a new car.

From head on, I'd always be able to tell a 350 vs. a 370 from the fangs. Now I'll be all confoozed...

Its less about hate and more about, going back to the old front from 5 years ago with LED's and subtle fangs. It's about paying 40k for a base sport loaded that didnt even get a 10hp boost or some engine refinement of some type... If all nissan is offering is GLORIFIED 350z bumper and so called "euro-shocks"? Why is the price going up again and how is it competitive to vastly upgraded cars like the gencoupe and 1ls-ss camaro????

Hate is when something is better than yours and you don't like seeing someone else with it. On the contrary, I want to see the next gen nissan brothers have better and pput me up on the scoop. You got it twisted.

Agreed. Still gonna give rep to all the new owners tho. Love these cars even if I don't agree with the price jump >.< one of the reasons I jumped on a new12 before they were all gone lol.

You guys are just too picky. The car still looks great. I love the LEDs.

If I bought one the first thing I would do is get underneath it and disconnect the DRL's. They are silly and make the car look dated and faddish already.
Second thing I would do is rig up a switch on the console so I could turn them on like fog lamps under bad weather conditions. But the whole idea of DRL's is dorky.

Looks are subjective... Dollar value isn't. The Z is a declining value and its bang for buck status has dwindled with this refresh. I don't see how that's being picky.

But I do thank the 13 and future 14 purchasers for the sacrifice and keeping the Z name alive. Everyone who contributes to purchasing one may may possibly be helping the next gen Z to be a better car??? For that I will give all Z owners love.

I am sure if i understand your dollar value comment. Most cars are getting more expensive every year, MSRP wise. It's hard to get a new camry LE for under 20k without rebates nowadays. The msrp of the IS350 went from 36k to 39k since 2006. Are they loosing their dollar value?

And i thought we are just taking about looks here.
