If he worries about a leaky seal and can't fix it, then please buy a Huffy and pedal to work because a Z without issue is asking way to much! He's going to hear the engine tick and **** his pants, faulty steering lock problem, oil loss, paint pealing off wheels, bald rear tires from a shitty OEM alignment, a shitty OEM alignment, paint no thicker than a fleas fart...I could go on and on.

OP if you really want a Z, lease it brand new!! My merc was around this cars price and I pay $390 a month. The Z is only $409 for a sport and that's when the 13 was $3600 more than the 14! When I buy it after the lease end and the whole time I'll have a payment I'll have spent about $2000 more than if I were to have just bought it. But low 400's is a lot better than low 600's!! And if in 3 years you hate the car, give nissan the keys and bounce!

The point is he is stating his concern. We are all just letting him know that there are plenty of Z's for the same price in much better condition than what he is looking at. Why not wait and do more research for a car you are "happy" with? And I don't know what Z you bought but I have only had the steering lock issue and that was it.

$400 a month or $600 a month? You tell me? Easy pick for me

Buy it now or be forced to save up over $11,000 for a down payment to match the lease monthly? I don't know about you but I'll buy it now and be happy. If that means $2000 more over the payment period or $250 a year, or $20.8 a month because I didn't save $11,000 cash, then so be it. I don't hear everyone saying credit cards are "really syno?"

I didn't address that because saying credit card debt is bad is kinda like saying water is wet.

It's $400 a month and you don't own the car at the end of the lease, or $600 and you get the title in the mail after the last payment clears. How is that even a comparison?

You own the car the whole time!! It's yours to buy whenever and sell whenever. You seem like you're in finance. How do you not know this? A lease on this is 38 months, then I'll buy it for a new buy loan. Vs most that buy for 5-6 years. I'm not that far off to get my title on the last payment.

You own it? At the end of the lease your name is on the title? Do we have different definitions of ownership? You're correct, you have the ability to sell the vehicle at any point. That doesn't mean you're the owner. You can sell you house at any point, but until you make the last payment the bank is the owner.

Ummmmm no you don't. I can buy the car tomorrow. I can sell it tomorrow. I can buy at lease end. Or I can give nissan the keys and walk. (I'll buy it at some point in time but I could also just trade in it for the brand new 2016 Z in 30 months and owe nothing). PS I haven't wasted anything yet!! Not till AFTER I buy the car and pay interest on the buy loan after its fully paid off. Then I'll have spent $20.80 a month more than you. Big deal.

But you owning that bitch can have issues if you want a divorce early. My divorce is written in stone in 38 months total and I have a prenup letting me pay ZERO . And if the car gods smile upon me and it holds its value, that bitch owes me money

but that's not gonna happen because nissan screwed us all with the 14 price drop. So instead of eating $3600 in 38 months like 13 buyers will, I walk I zero.

Check history of the car, you can check see if it was wrecked, if I don't feel good about something I go look somewhere else, don't let low miles fool you!! There are a lot of 370zs out there, car gurus is a good source to check the inventory around your area and narrow it down to what you want.

So off topic, Christ, c'mon, let synolimit lease, it's better for some than others, not every thread with him needs to turn into who has the largest cóck and the most cash on hand.

So worthless to argue over time and time again

soooooo.... on topic.

This sounds to me like a flood damaged car... doesn't have to be local if the dealership brought it in from a flooded area....

STAY AWAY.... there's plenty of fishezz in the Z
