Is trade worth it?

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.

You might look at all the great parts listed for sale from the 370Z forum members.

Like I said in the other thread. You can buy 90% of the parts that make up the sport package for less than 9K. Especially if you buy them used from other forum members. Tons of people want to sell their OEM stuff once they replace the parts with aftermarket.

Hell, I've got the sport package suspension setup from when I installed coilovers. I've also got a set of 2013 sport wheels that I need to sell as well. For the diff, just buy a Quaife.

Well it really depends on what you want from the newer model. $9k can buy a heck of a lot of mods & add ons for your current Z. It all depends on what makes sense to you

Can't buy SRM after the fact that I know of if you want the 6MT. That SRM is killer. I never practiced enough heel/toe downshifts. I hear the AT is very good though. I was on the fence about that. Bought the 6MT since it is not a daily driver.
