4th year to be exact.

I am getting 1st gen possibly. Not to much to worry I believe. Nissan will be very very careful to get this car in a very good shape, to many eyes on nissan right now with the release of GTR and a lot of expectation for the 370z. They are very aware of what they are doing right now.
About the Sycro Trans, well, dont think that will have problems at all, maybe people miss using it.

I believe that this will be a great car to buy and enjoy any day.

You are correct on that! That's why I put,"wish in one hand,**** in the other". Fanicially this year , no way possible. I'll(we)have to wait till 2010.

I had an 03 350 and never had a problem with it in any sense. I am not too worried about the first year model being buggy, that's what a warranty is for. I will buy a first year model, probably in March or April.

Ooooooooo. That's the year I'm buying! Boo-yah!!!

I will be buying first year.
The "boomerang" head and taillights are not a problem for me.
I think Nissan has the "bugs" worked out of this one.

Its engine is only what, 30% different than the previous?

So basically you have 70% of an engine that has been examined and retooled since 2003 and a Nav/climate system already tested in the G37, along with engines and drive train.

The biggest concerns might be for the 7SPD Auto which will be for the warranty, recalls, and me to figure out :D

I will be getting a first year'er! lol.

I bought 2003 350Z and I will again buy 2009 370Z.

seriously considering purchasing this car but probably not until late '09

2nd year for me (hubbys rule) . Im keeping my 05 anyway so won't be Z less. ;)

if i'm going to get it, i'll get the 1st year...
ya can't put a price on 1yr of enjoyment!

especially when we are talkin about the 370z

Agreed!:tup: As you said that a lot of stuff is shared with the G37 and it's been on the for a year already. In 2003 350Z had those problems because it was a BRAND new car without any previous models. This time it'll be a lot better experience IMO

:rofl2: I bet you $50 that once you see them on the road, you'll be at your local Nissan Dealer!

Now that's the attitude!

After buying the first year production car of the G37, i came to realize that i should have waited a bit because there are soo many little bugs/gremlins......rattles everywhere...throttle problems...actuator problems (causes thumping sounds, very nasty to hear from an engine).....broken pieces in exhaust....cd player messed up.......other ppl had sunroof problems......rattle noise from center speaker......not able to change the radio station, gets locked...lol...(Sunsational would go crazy if that happened to her while Womenizer was playing !!)...and there are other stuff as well.


recently there's a AirBag problem for the passenger seat, it turns off even when a person is sitting there.

How long have you had your G37?

Manual states that it will remember it's last position. So if you turn it on it will default to "on" when you start the car next....if you have it set to off it will default to "off" when you start the car next.

I will be getting a 2009...:eekdance:
