Hard to understand why you would trade this piece of art. :tiphat:

Maybe its the 9-10 MPG, although, 17 isnt much better lol

I thought i would get this response!

Well i never said it was a easy choice but it was one i felt should be done, yes the 360 was great but i needed a car i could drive every day, and the Nismo is just that car, it handles just as great as the 360, and i even feel the power delivery is also the same, very linear and very strong and feel that the nismo could beat my 360 in a race

I also got a great deal on trade (even trade) My Nismo is fully loaded and had a sticker of 46k plus 3k ( wanted vehicle) added to the sticker to make it almost 50k out the door with tax, fees etc


I was looking at a GTR aswell but i just loved the Feel of the Nismo and how rare it is, thus the 3k mark up! Its getting tons of looks and my boyfreind thought it was a new Porsche!

Congrats! Post some pics! :tup:

Oh nice your a girl. I would have traded my Z for your 360 you should have asked lol

hahaha im actually not!

The 360 was really not that good of a car guys.

damn, this thread is full of neat surprises!

:icon18:

oh hehehe get the giggles out now boys!:happydance:

Actually the NISMO is about equivalent at least in a rolling race situation. I happened to be on a closed course just minding my own business going 70mph when a 360 spyder rolled up and reved at me. Being that I was on a closed course race track I said what the hell and dropped it into 3rd gear. At the sound of my exhaust screaming the Ferrari owner responded. We took it to 130mph and it was dead even. We did this 3 times and every time I was able to hang with him. I waved after the last run and he just gave me a pissed off look and took off. My NISMO does have an upgraded exhaust but it only gives a small gain over stock.

Still, the Ferrari is definitely a looker. I've heard they aren't cheap daily drivers though so I know what you mean about being able to have something that is cheaper to DD.

It doesn't even matter if the nismo beats the Ferrari

It's a damn Ferrari lol.

Welcome and congrats

pictures?! and Welcome aboard

Very skeptical about this thread's factual accuracy. Starts out very troll like with limited but controversial information. Especially with brand new forum member

HOW DARE YOU ACCUSE A GENTLEMAN CLAIMING TO TRADE HIS FERRARI IN FOR A NISSAN OF TROLLING. IT IS NOT LIKE HE OFFERED EXACTLY ZERO PROOF AND IS A NEW FORUM MEMBER.


You sir, are clearly the troll.

If this is even true, I'm sorry this wasn't a good deal. Even trade? I just look on ebay for Modenas, and the cheapest one I seen was 65k, all the way up to 124k. And 50k OTD for a 370z is ridiculous.

Plus the maintenance cost and insurance...

BTW,

:worthless:

360 pics and then Z pics!!!

Lol, I agree to a large extent...


Since we know you're a guy... C'mon the Ferrari must be WAYYYYY easier to pull women... And I know the 360 was the bastard child of Ferrari... But yeah... It's a GD FERRARI!!!


I disagree with the trade, but if the OP is happy, F it, welcome to the club! Lol

:iagree: In for the pix.:)

reading prior posts explained that the OP has no interest in pulling Women!

I'm in for the Nudes I mean pics of the 360 Nismo :excited:

It does smell trollish though :p

:icon18:

this is my favourite thread of the day :tup:

you guys doubting that the Z is better clearly don't know basic elementary math.

370 is whole 10 greater than 360.

:iagree: Not even the biggest Nissan fanboys would ever consider this!!!!

Maybe this was OP's 360?

Haha jk OP. If you did indeed trade the two I can see your reasoning. But like many have said, pics or it didn't happen.

Even bad ferrari's are expensive collectibles. It doesn't make sense to trade. Might as well add the Z instead of trade. AND TRADING A FERRARI??? Nuts... you sell a ferrari. Then he gave the guy 3k over sticker. At minimum. I would have paid 46k out the door if not cheaper. Especially while Sports cars of NOT IN PEAK season right now.
Another thing, by selling a 360 to a newb rich guy. He coulda gotten 70k-100k and have a Nismo with KW 3/Robispecs,Volk wheels... high end aftermarker camber,endlinks etc... and a stillen supercharger setup with the remaining money.

You're stuck on how bad the modena is and not its monitary worth in the exotic arena.

I would keep the Ferrari just to wreck p***y on Friday nights. Trust me, the Z will NOT get ferrari attention.

Im letting my friend who takes professional pictures edit the photos of the Nismo before i put them up, as well as some of the 360. The more i see prices of Nismos and 360s on ebay its clear that i could have done somewhat better on price , however it is difficult to haggle on a price when you are dealing with collectable cars and exotics, ( i had the same problem with the 360 4years ago) and i hope to keep this car for some time until it gains in value

However i had lots of seat time time over 150 miles of driving thru back roads in west Virgina, and i have alot to say about the car!

First off its very comfortable for these long trips with the hubby and the seats don't hurt my back ( ive had 1 spinal surgery) like the ferrari did, The car handles great and feels very predictable in the corners and its very easy to get her tail out, it seems that the LSD in the Z has more lock than the ferrari. Im currently researching about exhaust since i think the car does need one and im sure i could gain serious power from it.

Thers just one lil thing that bothers me, its the noise of my hubby when i chirp 2nd!


Oh how i just love this beast

What year is your nismo?

2013 Sir

More twists and turns on this thread than on Lombard street in S.F.

Only a real troll would ignore all of the previous comments and add more troll comments..

What cracks me up is that some forum members are buying this story.

OP is a guy that has a boyfriend, i doubt he wants to be pulling girls with his cars. His boyfriend would probably not like that very much.

any nissan > mondial

In regards to this thread (In all respect to OP).

Either you are now being slammed for having a boyfriend or you are "faking" that you had a 360, which I could totally believe. Either way, I think we could get some mods in here to get the thread back on track. Sweet cars!

Where is this Triad Area and what dealership is this? I wouldn't hesitate to trade my Z for a 360. It must have been in pretty bad shape, since I know a lot of people who'd pay more for the Ferrari. It's in a whole other class.
