Which Would You Rather Have???
 
Which configuration would you rather have, Z Touring, Sport, 7AT, NAV or Z Touring, Sport, 6 spd synchroRev?

Just curious because I haven't seen a lot of 6spd with NAV.

I think I would now (in hindsight) do the 6spd over 7AT w/ NAV.

Since I'm driving here in LA most of time in bumper to bumper traffic I went with a Touring with Nav,Sport, 7AT

Same here, though my choices were:

370Z 7AT w/ Touring + Nav
370Z 6MT w/ Sports

I can't imagine a sportscar without a MT. That's one (and probably the only) reason I'm not fired up about the GT-R.

Had the auto not been as good as it is, I would have gotten the manual. This is not your typical slush box.

SMJane_Again 08-02-2009 08:06 PM

Gotta be the 6-speed. Even in stop and go. IMUSR&TVVHO (seriously people, when will Internet abbreviations ever end???) a car without a manual cannot ever achieve its true, driver-vehicle emotive potential.

Well, I have a 7AT Touring Coupe with navigation and the other few options offered and love it. Obviously, you can do without a navigation system just as any other conveniences (let's face it; most of what comes standard on vehicles today are totally unnecessary to the performance of the car and weren't even offered on true sports cars not many years ago).

However, why do without them? :)

zZSportZz 08-02-2009 08:27 PM

Manual all the way. If i wanted an auto I would have bought the G37 :) Sports car = MT for me.


Disclaimer: This is my personal opinion, I am not bashing on you AT people.

Pushing_Tin 08-02-2009 09:00 PM

IMO mine is the ideal setup. Navi with 6MT. But of the choices I'd take no navi as long as I got the 6 speed.

chris410 08-02-2009 09:15 PM

I went with the auto, very responsive and the test times were pretty impressive. That being said, if you plan on big upgrades, the manual would be the way to go since the auto is more restrictive as far as the amount of power it can handle.

Me it will be a manual I am tired of all these autos and I know how to drive manual use to have one.

:iagree: A lot easier to upgrade the audio system as well.

wolf41779 08-02-2009 09:31 PM

StLRedrider 08-02-2009 11:18 PM

Don't know about that, I drive mine 7 days a week.

kannibul 08-03-2009 09:05 AM

My choice was black (wanted platinum), touring w/ sport (check), black interior (check), no nav (check), 7AT (didn't want, but can accept it) for invoice price (big check)

This dealership would have charged $1000 to bring a car in if I wanted something other than that, and I'd lose invoice-pricing.

Sure, I probably should have held firm and checked out other dealerships, but, not that big of a deal, in the end...I got a good deal, a pretty good interest rate, a shitty payment ($0 down), and a car I like a lot.

How's that?

I mean, what the auto transmission rated for?

HTTWHLS 08-03-2009 09:36 AM

I've got the Touring, Sport, 6spd SynchroRev w/Nav. Get the 6spd w/Nav - you won't regret it :tup:

I second that! It's the only way to roll. If you are going, go all out! 6Spd is a must for a sports car. :tup:

6Spd is not a must if you can't drive a manual. Some people would be a lot better of with an auto. If you like or do a lot of twisty mountain road driving and want to have fun doing it, a manual is definitely the way to go.
