Sigh, almost had a 370Z yesterday..

Diversion

Dealership had a blue 370Z 6-speed with every single option on it.. totaling over 41k..

I know for sure I want the Sport, Touring and Navigation.. I could probably live without door sills, whatever else they offer as I'm sure we can all find these "at cost" on the web somewhere.. so whatever, the dealer of course really wanted to sell the car to me and only dropped the price to 38.8k.. To compensate they went higher on my trade in (scion tC) but I still felt like the deal wasn't good enough at this time.

They let me "borrow" the car for a day - although I only drove it home and parked it and showed the GF and my mom happened to stop by and hated it lol. GF was indifferent.. She feels it's a bad purchase all-around.. (We just bought a house, and with the way the job market is right now and mass lay-offs and whatnots).. All valid points I guess.

Anyways, the 370Z is an AMAZING and a well-rounded vehicle.. So much fun to drive and out handles anything i've driven in this price range.

Anybody have any help or thoughts? 38.8k for every option seemed kind of steep still.. I really like the navigation unit with all the integrated on-screen utility it offered and I know that only drives the price up just under $2000.. sigh.

2010 models will be coming out Sept./Oct timeframe I imagine, would I be able to score a better deal if I snag a 2009 around then?

Thanks for reading,
