It is not a touring model, or a sport model. Base all the way around.

Yeah, base as hell, no leather, no Bose, no heated seats even though it says it has it...
The ONLY thing it has is the reverse camera...
What a joke

You're not gonna see any price drop in the US. Its just not gonna happen any time soon. They price it for specific markets and there are a whole mess of factors that determine the final price. Nissan North America will only follow lead if they see a large increase in sales. It's still kind of anyone's guess, how exactly Nissan Europe manages to sell it for that low a price without selling each one at a lost. The prices usually already reflect the lowest price to be competitive. Think of it this way, they sell a whole lot less GTR's and the price of that car has jumped almost every year.

The deficit isn't high enough either. A loaded BRZ, which doesn't have a whole lot more than a base Z is $30,000. A base Z is $33,000. There's no need for the price drop.

Next gen though. I see a roll back happening on year one MSRP's.

I found the attachment before I was getting my Z. Seems like a lot of countries pay way more than us in North America.

Your post just yesterday:

hermmmmmm this is my take on the whole situation, you can blame whoever you might think is at fault sure, we can all do that. But you bought the car because you wanted a Z, this thread shows the true z enthusiast from the "i like how the z looks like" peeps. For me im pretty nonchalant about it when i first saw the price i was like awwwww shoot batman but after sitting on it and thinking about it and reading these posts i mean i bought my car for 32.5 OTD with 2k miles on it and im glad it had 2k miles on it b/c i would have felt worse stalling in a car that hasnt been broken in. so going to dealerships and nego with them for a new 2014 and prob only get the car price without tax to 28.5 at best but prob 29. and then NJ taxes and fees so around 32k....not worth the animosity or anger or time to frustrate on it. honestly italy you would at best pay about 500-1000 less if you were to get the 14


its funny how much your opinion has changed on the whole price thing... to the point where you say people who are mad about loosing money are not z enthusiast.


question for you, how many z's have you owned? didn't you buy your car used? buying a used car you have no reason to be mad about a price change..

Alright.... That's enough!!! The emotional scaring will take months to heal

The taste of the sh*t sandwich Nissan fed me will go away with a few tooth brushings and some Listerine.

I think everyone would feel much better if they would donate $100 each to peleincubus for his Z fund. Kinda like a sponsor.

If you need an example as why to feel sorry for me I have lived with my ex girlfriend for the last 9 months. She is a crazy Latina that is impossible to reason with.

Sigh.
