SRM was what kept me coming back to the Z. I looked at Camaro SS and Mustang GT with all that 400+ HP. And I like the looks/performance of the Camaro SS with 1LE package. SRM kept pulling me back. Thank God it did, I'd have to kill myself for joining the masses of Camaro's on the road.

Z=unique

I guess the question for the OP is if you think you are missing anything without the sport package. Are you interested in the performance improvements? Are you autocrossing, tracking, or some such? Then I could really see the desire to have the sport package. If not, take that $9K and go on some driving tours. Yellowstone, Glacier, Acadia, Grand Canyon. Some cool stuff to see.

Earlier he had offered a $9000 difference on a base black 2014 370z and lots of folks here had discouraged me from that trade, saying it is essentially the same car. The sports package comes with the synchromesh,larger wheels and brakes and the spoiler.

My problem is that I am 66, do not have any more sports cars in my future and no other new cars in my money range appeal to me, not the Genesis nor the FRS/Subaru and I do not go for the General Motors or Ford cars, period.

I should just stay put with my car but another year or two and its too late to buy sports cars.
Not a problem.. You are not 66... In todays world your 56..... Than again I'm not a real doctor....

Yup, it gets tougher. You get old, the women do not want you (as you are not rich enough), you are burn't out at the job but cannot afford to retire,

So, the only trade left for my last is for a newer better version of the 370Z.
Just saying.

Good luck in your decision!

OP, I'd do it. If you love the Z and plan on keeping it for a long time, why not? A $9,000 depreciation on a 4 year old car with 41k miles, plus getting an upgraded new version, sounds like a win to me. Good luck on your decision!

I wouldn't do it. If anything I'd wait for the redesigned Z. I'm kind of in the same boat (though not as old) as far a what I'm willing to pay for a "toy" car and though I've tried a few others, the Z just seems to suit me pretty well.

Another Old Guy Response!
 
Hey ZeeBabar, I just did it and I'm 67. Traded my 2012 roadster, for a 2014 black cherry coupe, base w/ sport pkg. AND I'm real happy!
Do it!
Cheers,

Cherry paint color is awesome........... Than again I'm not a real doctor.....
