What did you do trade in your sentra for a Z and now you can't get any loan outside of a Nmac loan or lease? Lol. You act so stuck when ur not unless ur credit is shyt.
I'm stuck with this car for 3 years, not trying to lose thousands in trading it in or getting out of lease. Hopefully in 3 years I can make a better decision before I get excited, you're right. Sure as hell won't be a Nissan

If you hate the Z so much, why do you even hang around this forum? You're unhappy, fine. No nee dot continuously bring that negativity here. Coming onto the forum probably makes you even more upset so just don't come here.

Your first mistake was leasing. I have never met anyone who at the end of their lease agreement was happy that they leased.

So you hate Nissan, but not your Z. Care to paraphrase why? (just curious, not trying to say Nissan is the best or anything)

First off, Fanboys haven't driven different cars in the range. I have rented most of the hottest sports cars out there now or have test driven them. From corvette, camaro, mustang, challenger eclipse, as rentals. I've test driven gecoupe, evo 135I porache cayman, 335I, and a couple months ago, the STi. So I know something about how most these cars feel. I haven't knocked any of these cars for what they are. All I have said, while all of these cars may have some advantages over the Z. As an overall package I find the Z to be compelling thus far.
Less refined and more brutish than a cayman. Can jump pff the line faster than a challenger R/T, gives more feedback than a mustang and faster than the more acrobatic lightweights. The Z though not a master of ANY, it has the jack of all trades title and combines everything other cars can do well and gives 90% of various driving experiences.

How is that being a fanboi? A funboi sukks a cars exhaust before knowing what he bought. Buys it, worships it for 3 months, then Trolls it out the second he finds a new car
To fanboy...
Learn to rent possible cars, and get good enough credit to warrant getting solo 2 hour long test drives, and you don't have to resort to calling someone who's driven every car you wish you can touch a fanboy.
Good job. regarding Mr. BuddyZ's posts, please consider the source and try to not react. Anyone who lists "socal" as their location truly needs a wide berth, if you catch my drift. You may be trying to explain the color red to a blind man.

I have had many sports cars, which include cars that are faster, feels better, rides better, looks better, but the 370 is probably the best compromise out of them all. It also helps that it is $30K and not $70K like the 911 I was going to get. For the money, there aren't many cars that will beat its performance.

As far as Nissan, they are just cheap a$$holes. I have had many issues with them on parts and avoid paying warranty work. Here are some famous quotes from Nissan's service department.

"It is a sports car, there are going to be rattles"
"You have a trailer hitch, that's why your fuel gauge is reading funny"

Oh yeah, I still have a whinny transmission bearing and fuel starvation issue they either can't or don't want to fix

Have you tried a different dealership? I had a squeak in my rear bumper which I thought was the foam but they said it was something else and fixed it though it took longer and was more complicated than my foam assumption. I had issues with one Nissan dealership with my Altima too, but then another fixed it just fine with no fuss.

The only thing im not sure of is if my opinon would of been different if i got the sports package, i mean all my negativity is based on the Base model. Were not even talking sport,touring,nismo. So please give me 5,000 dollars worth of bolt ons and other things i can do to at least make me feel better about this car for 3 years.

I mean i absolutely love the way this car looks that was never the question.

Nope, chevy bent over backwards to fix my car (they didnt fix it right, but at least they tried). Same with Toyota and Mercedes.

Been to 2 dealerships so far with the 370, 6 with 350. The only one I trusted closed down. They are just very tough to work with. I understand they aren't going to fix every problem, but the fact they don't try bugs me. Here is another example. If you research about the fuel starvation issue, you will see that throws a million codes in the ECU. Rather than trying to fix it or at least attempt to, they immediately tried to blame me for the issue and refused to work on it. I didn't mention they tried to tell me my rear view camera was one of the possible cause of it, that's how pathetic they were.

Just get over it, only so much you can cry over. Beat the crap out of the car, let the next owner deal with it.
