2010Z for 2013Z, would you?

wait it out for the z35.
save while you can to put aside for mods

Mt Tam I am

I have a 2009 370Z with 20,000 miles as of Sunday.

No way would I do this based on financial planning alone.

If you had a a base model Corvette and were trading it for a ZR1 then I'd say yes. But to trade a 370Z for a newer one with 30K fewer miles seems like a path to financial mediocrity while gaining very little.

Depends on everything though!

I had a 09 WRX at like 6% interest, some negative from a trade in and a $509 payment. Car had 36,000 miles of 330hp 360tq.

I traded for 11 WRX, 2.9%, $413 payment, zero miles, new motor, new tranny, wide body kit, zero negative, and all parts converted over. Just for the 09 I paid $23,000 and traded it for $20,500 two years later plus the $1300 saved in tax savings.

I 100% would trade an old car in for a new one! specially if it doesn't cost much. Let's say its only a few grand to trade...where you gonna find a brand new motor for your old car for a few grand!!?? Plus a brand new tranny, clutch, flywheel, tires, rims, new paint job, etc etc. to make an old car look new and have new things you'd spend $20,000 easy.

And with the $3600 14 price drop the switch should cost zero outta pocket! Its a no brainer.

i would not get a '14 just because my car had 30K miles. i would just wait it out till the z35 and accept the lower trade-in value but enjoy my new car longer.

ofcourse if the z35 turns out to be a flop, you can still get the '14 if you wanted.

Any more news on the z35??? I've got to make decisions myself. Any factory incentives on the 2013/2014 before the next Z comes out?

kenchan

naw, just to wait till end of nov for tokyo autoshow. that's when nissan is showcasing the next gen Z and some silvia class coupe, so i read.

no idea on incentives. probably not. the 14's prices are already back to near 09 prices.

What happened to last month's talk of $5,000 incentive???
