even with my multiple issues with my car, I LOVE IT. will always be a z owner one way or another and I would not trade it for anything.

Thanks Triple's.

After 10 months 2 weeks and 18k miles, having lot's of fun with it. No buyer's remorse here my friend. Are trying to fix this with another stealership?

There are little things I dislike but at the end of the day I don't regret it.

No car is perfect so yeah.

enkei2k · 03-19-2013, 08:38 PM

Not going to lie, sometimes I do.

Sometimes I wish I settled for a different car because:

- insurance would be less
- if it gets dinged, I wouldn't cry like a baby
- less urge to mod
- less storage space/passengers
- wouldn't have to wash it every other week

But MOST of the time, I'm OK with it.

Also, it should be noted that a brand new IS F is 60 grand (MSRP, source: lexus.com), and a brand new Z car can be had for 33 grand (MSRP, source: nissanusa.com).

So I would hope that the IS-F is a more rewarding buying experience.

XiP · 03-19-2013, 08:52 PM

Yes and no

Yes: I regret buying it because I should have saved all the money I spent on my Z and been a responsible person and invested in something with ROI

No: It's a sexy and fun car and what is the purpose of life if you just work and save money but not do anything enjoyable with it

I regret not getting persimmon seats!! I love my car so much i make up errands to run just so i can drive it. The Z makes me feel like a million bucks. The GTR is the only car i'd realistically reather have then the Z.

Ha did this guy seriously think we would all agree and list off cars we "SHOULD" have got? Someone didnt do their homework before buying. Becaue we all did and thats why we have a Z.

I think the OP had a lot of problems with his, along with horrible dealership experiences. That would make the buyer of any car regret the decision. I would feel the same way if I was in his shoes. Of course, I'm not, and I love the car. No regrets here, but then again, I've only had it for six months. Could I have spent the money a little more wisely? **** yea, but life is meant to be lived.

You would be correct, and the dealer Nissan North American has told me to go to has TERRIBLE reviews and I got a text telling me not to go there...

BG370z · 03-19-2013, 09:16 PM

Broken transmission, car has problems starting, cruise control doesn't work, the car rattles almost uncontrollably, and a half dozen other things

The dealerships ain't doing shít to help, and even our less than month old Maxima is rattling like a 1980's Chevy truck

lemon-fresh · 03-19-2013, 09:28 PM

Only regret is how much I have to wash the damn thing and not being able to drive it year around... But all that **** fades away when I'm behind the wheel or just admiring its beauty.
