Sorry.

If your desire for the 370Z is great enough to offset the loss you will undoubtedly incur, then by all means go ahead and get the Z.

If I were in your position, I would NOT get a Z because it is very similar to the G. The Z will be slightly lighter and not have back seats. The G is has the same engine and can just as fun with a little more luxury and practicality (back seats).

Good luck.

Well, what are you looking for in the Z that isn't offered in your G?

I personally wouldn't do it because in those three months of ownership, you already lost a bunch of money. You definitely won't be able to get the price you're looking for if you trade in the G at this point.

first and only point - don't trade it in, if you want value for your car, sell it in the private market to get more value / cash for your car.

now if you want the Z, not a problem, everyone's taste and preferences change over time, but you want to get the most out of your G37, so don't trade it in. sell it yourself and use the cash/money to get your Z.

Keep your G37!
I want to keep the ownership of this vehicle minimal!

thank you everyone for ur opinions

and sorry about not provid much information

the reasons i was thinking about tradeing G for Z is that

G is kind of too gentle and heavy for a race track and I realized

the back seat is not really needed (never use in these 3 month)

the biggest point is Z is too sexy

I do think xbadgerx was giving me a good point which G is not cheap and i

will loss a lot of money if trade in

I went to dealer and they said my G olny worth low 30K which i loss more

than 10K if trade in.

thanks for everyone, I think Ill keep my G and save money for a Z

Keep it and do this to it..Forged Performance: GTM Twin Turbo VQ37VHR G37

Instead of losing 10k, spend it on this kit and have the best of both worlds. You'll have a luxury car that can hang (beat) most sports cars out there.

I'm just not sure that what you would get would be worth the loss of many thousands of dollars. Good luck keeping the G!
