Why did you buy your 370?

genki370z · 08-13-2009, 07:21 PM

i was in hollywood at the time around feb, i was at the mall on sunset blvd at the walk of fame and right there were two nissan 370z's on display, i then thought to myself maybe its a sign......hangin out on sunset blvd all day, i must of ran into probably 20 advertisments of the new 370z either it be on the billboards or on tv....i thought to myself yeah it is a sign. when the day was done i was exiting the hollywood area to go home then i saw the mothership of all advertisments of the 370z....scaling alongside a (out of estimation) a 20 story building!....then i said to myself, yeah thats the car im gonna get!! it was one of those things where u just see signs all over the place to help with your decision!!

That's not a sign. It's called marketing lol.

seems the preordered ones are the only ones free of markup, but with a wait that long, sure as hell shouldnt be. Mr. Fusz, im curious, can a dealer charge a "rarity" fee?

Lol on a Camaro, the only Camaro that deserves a rarity fee is the z28 ss if those ever comes out.

They can charge any fee that a customer is willing to pay...

Red370 · 08-13-2009, 07:22 PM

a quick ? for those reading the thread, how do yall think this 30 mpg minimum sanction on all production cars after 12' will effect the performance car market? Im seein an increase in 4 banger turbodiesels, thoughts?

I had always wanted a 240Z back in the day when I was a young kid. Then I saw the 370Z and for me it was as if the 240Z had been infused into a modern version of the original. I had to have it and within two weeks I bought the one I wanted in June. Still breaking it in but I've enjoyed every minute!

Island_370 · 08-13-2009, 07:30 PM

The import tax on cars here made an S5 too expensive. So I looked into RWD cars (snow longer an issue) the 370Z was the best performance/cost combo out there.

gleonard · 08-13-2009, 07:29 PM

I was looking up info on the bmw z4 out of curiosity, then the 350z because I had seen them around town and liked their look. That's how I found out about the 370. I saw the price and the performance reviews and decided I really wanted one. Wrestled with the want vs. need issue for a few weeks. Finally decided you only live once and bought the car.

Because only guys with huge members drive Zs.

And you found that attractive? I mean, how would you know, unless you checked other member's members.

You didn't get measured when you bought yours? It was like one of those "you must be this tall" rules.
