Those who are looking to get base Z
 

Im looking through the threads and dont understand why people are saying there going to get base model with the sport package.

Sport package obviously comes with the 19s and the brakes.

But the base model comes with standard 18 inch rims 225/50/18 in the front and 245/45/18 in the rear. Yokhoma Advan tires.

The sport package I believe comes with the 19s that are shown in all the pictures of the car and with the brakes.

245/40/19 front 275/35/19 in the rear

Just wanted to put it out there since there arnt any pictures of the base model below the sports package.

:tup:

Personally I'd be happy with either model.

So, what is it that you don't understand about people getting a base with the sport package?

Sounds like you answered your own question with the rest of your post.

I plan on getting a base with the sport package instead of the touring for the following reasons:
• I don't want leather
• I can read a paper map
• since it's not a sebring convertible, I don't want an automatic

Does this help your understanding?

no? im just saying its no longer base if u had a package to it lol

??

Is that a question?

The name of the model is not dependent on the addition of options. I think you are confusing the definition of the word "base" with the naming convention of the new Z line.

ok cool

I know what you mean. I agree.

:stfu:
:rolleyes:

lol thanks. A car is only considered base if it has no options at all lol.

:D

Someone has to be the voice of reason around here.

OT but where in the Bay Area do you live? we should organize some meets when the first cars come in...

yeah you guys are just getting lost in semantics

the base is the non touring both it and the touring can have the sports package

so when one says base more than likely they mean not the touring instead of base as in nothing on the car

What's the base model? The one you take home for $29,900. Anything else would be 370Z with _______ package (IMO) For example if you get the Z with sports package , you should say, "hey, I got a 370Z with the sports package" or " check out my Touring 370Z with Navigation package" ...

:ugh2: @ this thread :icon17:

East Bay. What about you?

I'm in Walnut Creek so East Bay as well - seems like there are plenty of us around here so we should def organize some kind of get together at some point.

Has anyone been able to find all-season tires that are 19"? I plan on driving my Z all year when I get it (in southeast WV), and sometimes they do get snow down there, so I want some all-seasons. I couldn't find any all-seasons for 19" (all the summer ones were like $250-350 a piece), while they had plenty of all-season tires that would fit the 18" wheels, and they were only about $150 or so.

Sounds good. I'm sure we'll have more members joining once the car is actually released. :driving: (They didn't have a paddle shifter avatar :icon17: ) jk lol!

Hey ctzn, you mind if I steal your avatar?

Go for it buddy, spread the good word of the enthusiast gospel... :tup:

For sure, but there is also a large base of all gen Z owners around here so I am sure people would be up for it... the closest one I know if is all the way down in Milpitas

Maybe in in Emeryville or something, I will make a thread in the regional forum in a couple months.

That's cool. Maybe The Great Mall can be a meet point. :tup:

I don't understand the question.

I'm getting the base with the sports package. ;)

He meant that people should stop bitchin that they're getting a "base" model because it is already comes well equipped. At least that's how I interpreted it.

lol no I just meant that I dont understand why people are saying "getting base with sports package" Its suppose to be "im getting the sports packagE" because its no longer base when it has a option added on lolll

Gotcha, I see what your sayin. :driving:

Dosnt matter to me anymore I just want this car so bad!!!!

That's just the honeymoon phase...after that you'll wish you had gotten the added features lol

I am getting the added features. the 19's brakes leather seats and navi =) The rest all aftermarket.

Montery blue FTW

So you getting Touring+sport+navi? That'll prob cost like $40k after taxes.

it should be worth it ill be financing this car and will most likely have it for a long time

I'm just thinking of Touring + Sports Trim...
I'd rather buy a navigation, my 05' G35's navigation blowed...
Looks great though lol...

i dont think a aftermarket navi would look as good as a stock navi in tht big position on top of the radio. the stock navi looks really clean

I like my garmin portable navi...easily updatable and best off all I can carry it with me what I walk. No navi for me.

i said that about my 350Z when I got it 3 years ago. :icon17:

I don't understand why you cared so much to make a thread about how it won't be base with no options. You have the option to choose the base model with specific options that are/are not available on other trims. THEN, you add the sports package to that, which gives you a different combination of options that are/are not available on other trims w/ the sports package.

I hope this help you understand nissan's logic in creating a car with certain options and then adding other specific options to it. Maybe you should be downgraded to a single model power wheels barbie corvette instead of the 370z. You won't get confused then.

I hope my barbie corvette comes in montery blue =)

You should've told him to :gtfo2:

:icon17:

lol im not here to beef with people over stupid remarks. I just want to talk about the 370Z =)

For the base PLUS sport package guys, why not just save that $2-4k, get the base with stock 18" wheels, and use the money to get aftermarket spoilers and wheels? These stock 18" are basic, but they can do for a few months to a year, when I buy a set of 18" or 19" gunmetal [something] with a fu@#ing fat lip on it.
