Just not sure why, with the advice with all the others who have posted, you would be so pumped to take the plunge now instead of waiting a mere couple months. It sounds like you had your mind made up but asked our opinions anyway.

:icon17: Knock off a few thousand, for a car that has no planned changes. You've got to be kidding.

AND ..... don't give me heated mirrors as a major change

This car was getting thousands knocked off when it was new. Most of us got our car for a couple hundred over invoice. Obviously they will be selling at bargain basement when it's time for the new ones to roll in. :rolleyes:

Nah... I didn't make up my mind yet. Sounds like the best thing is to wait, however, all I'm saying is if they offer me invoice and/or an extended warranty. I may still consider the 2009. If not, I'll just walk out. Your opinions are helping me decide. It's helpful to know a lot of you were getting thousands knocked off when the car had just come out. This will make it a lot easier for me to walk out of the dealer if the price is not right.

I have my heart set on the 370z but I also took a look at the 2010 Mustang GT. Since I use the car year-round and live in NJ, the Mustang is a bit more attactive than the 370z because it's a lot easier to get a set of rims/snow tires for the car. (like I have been doing for the last 3 years with my 350z) For some reason (size of brakes perhaps) it appears that I may have quite a bit of trouble finding snow tires that will work with the 370z... that is unless I buy 19 inch Blizzaks and mount them on the stock rims. (not a great option) I was hoping 17s would work on the car but it looks like I'm SOL on that plan.

Just remember that with a car with so few options, the perfect one is always right around the corner. No need to rush mate.

Well I spent some time at 2 Nissan dealerships today and it looks like the best they are willing to do on a 2009 370z Touring is about $800 over invoice. No other incentives whatsoever. Horribe trade-in offer on my 2006 350z. I checked the KBB on it and trade-in was 15k. The first dealer offered me $11,800 and would not budge. The only way he would offer more is if I took MSRP on the new car. The 2nd dealer offered maybe a thousand more, if that. Is this what I can expect for my 350z in this economy? Quite an eye-opener, for sure!

On the flipside, I also stopped to take a look at a 2010 Mustang GT Premium... fully loaded with everything. (nav, glass roof, accessory packages, voice command, etc.) It's a 40k car and Ford is offering to give it to me for zero down plus my trade-in, for $589 a month. (includes tax) Seems like a great deal, but I was hoping to get a similar deal on the 370z. Anyways, that's where I'm at... guess I need to decide what I really want. :icon14:

The new mustang fully loaded can be nice, but did you take the mustang out for a drive? No amount of added features can change how the car drives/handles if it is not what you want/need in a car.

Yeah I took the 5 speed GT out for a spin. The car moves! The interior was kind of cheap feeling compared to the Z though. The glass roof was awesome and the computer/nav was very cool... especially how it was activated by voice. It's also got some really cool illumination effects inside where you can customize the color of all of the interior lights and dash. When it comes down to it though... I love the Z styling and handling! Tough decision... maybe I should just sit on it for a while and make a decision in the spring of next year.

Wait for 2010. N just keep trying till u get a maximum of 500 under invoice or a maximum of 900 over invoice. That's ur range.
Sometimes through special circumstances u can get 2,000 or even 4000 off.
But that's either through employee discounts,dealer offers or govt funding.
Just keep your eyes and ears open. BUT definately go 2010.

Any idea when 2010s will hit the lots?

(new member, nav tips welcome)

Z's..Mustangs..snow tires??A bit confused don't you think?
Maybe a Hummer next?

Well, as much as I would have liked to wait until the 2010s were out... I couldn't get the car out of my head and ended up picking one up. Went with the 370z Touring 7AT w/Sports and Nav. Got it for around $1,000 over invoice. A little higher than I would have liked but I pushed them hard to give me more on my trade-in, so they of course had to make some of it up. Anyways, here are some pics!

the 2010's base features didnt have anything that i would be interested in so got the 2009...at a great deal.

but if you're looking at the touring with all the bells and whistles, i'd definitely wait. that HD for the headunit + USB sounds nice.

haha. was that a joke

new but subtle features for 2010
 

there was a site on another thread about the 2010 coupe.
yes theres heated mirrors thats a plus.
yes theres cooling seats as well as heated thats a plus.

but the reason why ive been debating myself whether to trade my 09 pw /persimmon for a fully loaded 10 is ...

bluetooth MUSIC!! WOOT no more stupid wires...
plus a new interior color that beats persimmon with pearl white..
something called 40 red. imagine that!!
that would be so sexy.
would remind me of my championship white type R with red recaro seats...
sigh... i should have waited.
