2011's in a month?
I talked to whoever responds on Nissan's Twitter account (@NissanNews) and they told me that dealers should begin receiving 2011 Z's on October 21st (coincidentally the same day my G37 lease ends). Anyone else have any info on this? It sounded like most others were saying not until December or so.
Also, does anyone have info on the residual values and money factor? I know it will change next month and even more so with the model year change. Thanks. |
If you looked at Nissan news website and read charting the changes you would know it sells in oct.
|
You could probably score a better price on a 2010 once the 2011's come out.
|
That's my plan.

Sounds a bit early to me. Perhaps you mean you can order a 2011 starting in October. You could not have gotten a 2010 in your hands until around March of 2010 if I'm not mistaken.

I'm still trying to understand why people lease cars when they have money to spend...
I could understand leasing if ya couldn't afford the $300 per month to buy a (for example) a honda fit and you paid $200 per month to lease... but not with a much more expensive car. At least with buying a car, when all is said and done, you have something, in-hand, to show for it... Is it the boredom factor? Automobile longevity? I'm not trying to criticize the OP. It's just something that makes me wonder... |
Depends where you live. Oct, maybe the release date for Cali. For Seasonal States it will probably be March 2011.
|
From what I can recall, there are no changes from 2010 to 2011. Other than the addition of a backup camera with the Navigation package. Pick up those 2010s.

Also, I would NEVER want to have a car like this out of warranty. |

I honestly don't believe that. Maybe a few week difference.. but a HALF YEAR difference from CA to NJ? Give me a break. |

If you want to be economical, yeah.. leasing is not the best. If you plan on keeping a car for a 5-10 years, then obviously you want to buy it. But if you're looking to have a new car every few years, then buying a car is a bad choice. Just like buying a house is NOT always the best choice... depends on your needs... people need to think more for themselves and stop being so brainwashed. |
I ended up buying a 2009 leftover. Blue. Touring Sport 6MT with nav. $40,000+ MSRP... they sold for $32,900. It has 3,000 miles on it. It made A LOT more sense for many different reasons.
Thanks for all your help! I'll post pics when I take some (on a real camera, not my iPhone 4 camera). LOVE it so far. I realized that this is pretty much what I mostly wanted my G35 and G37 Coupes to be. I somewhat miss my G37 6MT, but mostly I do not! |
Grats. That's the exact combo for which I'm looking!

So the 2011 comes w/ back up cam.... If that's the case then I'll stick w/ my 2009.
Does anyone know the difference between 09 to the 10s? |
lease vs buy.

for me its knowing that if a cooler vehicle comes out while im in the middle of a lease i can always switch cars. and let it go hassle free. |
Wrong, wrong, and wrong. This whole paragraph is an epic fail.

Yeah, sorry ShiroZ... I agree with IB.
While I've typically always leased... and leasing CAN be a great option... you listed all the wrong reasons. 1- Typically, leasing to buy does not work out best. 2- Umm never buy a car thinking it will be a collector's item... even so.. then you should be BUYING, not leasing. 3- Gap insurance? That's your reason? Main advantages of leasing are if you typically don't want to keep a car longer than 3 years or so... you won't lose money on trading/selling. Also good if you want to be in a car you can't afford to buy. The Z is a BAD car to lease... Nissan doesn't make it attractive, which is why I ended up buying a leftover. My first car out of my past 4 that I didn't lease. |
And this is also completely opposite from the truth...

Planning to keep the car for awhile here, FI it when the warranty runs out (or sooner! :driving: ), and then hand it over to the son when he's old enough to drive (not for another 8 years!). |

I agree with everyone's viewpoint on leasing. Sorry for stating the wrong reasons. But this is currently what has happened to me in the past month and ive been dealing with it. but to say GAP insurance is nice. and it doesnt exactly come out to 10$/month for gap insurance. a little more than that here in socal. as for my last words about a cooler car coming out and hassle free, it is incorrect for many because theres sometimes upside downs etc and other fees that may be involved if turning in the lease early. but for me im fortunate to negotiate and know people that will make it happen so that it is hassle free for me. if anyone here is in socal and is looking for a vehicle i dont mind helping out or giving out a point of contact for the purchase/lease.
also about the z being a collectors item, i guess its based on point of view. because to us enthusiasts it may be a collectors item already just b/c it has potential and a history that precedes it. but the points you made msb and option are the most important which i probably should have stated instead of my randomness. sidenote. msb. you are right on getting a brand new car for 3yrs or less, leasing is the best way to go for any vehicle. |
2011 Pricing
This is interesting - I see that the msrp for the 2011 touring model will be going up by $200 to $35,280. That's expected, however it seems Nissan does not plan to charge extra for the Black Cherry color; a savings of $500.
Can we get a confirmation on that? It should affect the quote that I got in September based on the 2010 model. Ranger |
The 370z build page confirms the price changes. BC no longer costs an additional 500.
|
I had a dealer tell me on Friday that there is no up charge for black cherry in 2011
|
It's here!
It finally arrived! I ordered it Sept 6 and picked it up last night. The dealer did a fine job prepping it - I wanted the spoiler but not the sports option, so they had to install it.
The only minor complaint I have is that there is less room in the back than I had expected - no ones' fault but my own. Hopefully, it will keep me happy for 12 years; just like my Acura Integra did. rangercarol |
