oops I meant...sports package on either the base or touring model.

I was planned on getting a car for my wife. She wanted a mustang, but I've been around asian vehicles all my life and my brother has a 350z. Somehow I became hooked on the 370z. Plus, I read mustangs do not great head turning points compared to a Z.

Basically, she is happy with whatever decision I make...woohoo!!!

370Z it is! But I am definitely leaning towards a virgin Z

lol

What additional options did you get?

I got a 2010 base with sport package and got floor mats and illuminated kick plates with mine. I ended up getting a trunk mat after delivery so you might as well get that from the factory if you can.

If you get a 2011 you can get the backup rear view mirror with it. It is pricey but pretty cool.

Yeah seems like a lot got the same package with splash guards but not too much of the kick plates. What's amazing about that? Adds any cool factor? worth it? Why get the trunk mat?

Yeah if I get back the new 2012s will be popping up which will make the 2011s cheap. How much is the backup rear mirror and why is it cool?

If you get a pearl white with splash guards you may find that they don't match. I would make sure they do before you leave the dealership. As for the kick plates, I just liked the way they looked. They add a nice touch IMO. The trunk mat is nice in that you can take it out and vacuum it easily. Plus it has a Z logo on it

Here is the backup mirror:

We just did a group buy on a Nav tool back up harness to go with existing NAV. This is a much cheaper way to go on a new 2010 model.
