Not very considering why are you buying a car that you have to mod a bumper to make it presentable.

chris you have been so helpful and supportive, thanks. i am definitely going to give myself some time to think on it. honestly, the easiest first step to a solution of this decision is this: making sure beyond a shadow of a doubt that my dealer can hand me that 13 for the exact price of the 12. if not, a 12 it is. because i am certain i dont want to spend even 100 bucks more if i have the slightest doubt about the 13.

and im looking for brand new. again, thanks for the support. i figured id be chewed up and spit out on a car forum since im a chick lol

That's what we're here for. (Aside from the -ing of course )

There are several features of the 2013 that don't really appease me personally, and honestly, even if they could come in at Under the price of a 2012, I still wouldn't take one. But thats me. What you're willing to accept, only you know. Either way, whatever you decide on as long as you are 100% happy with your purchase, then its a win. And if you ever have the slightest discontent with it inside the first 3 days, take it back and get what you Want.

LoL No, we don't discriminate based on gender. Actually, those of up stepping up to actually talk to the gals on here are getting more flame than the women themselves. Quite entertaining.

Personally I don't care for the LEDs at all. I have seen a few around my area with the LEDs up front and like I said not a fan. I have a 12' black cherry touring/sports/nav 7at black leather/suede interior and love it and love all the comments I get on the color. Changed out the map lights with blue leds and get tons of great comments on those as well. If you really want a 12 they will find it for ya... You may have to bat your eyes a little but they will. Good luck keep us posted!

Any dealer can only see their cars and the cars in their region. They can't see outside of that. That's why I'd recommend talking to a few of the dealers we have here just to see what they have listed. They can help get the 2012 you want routed to your local dealer.

The local Nissan dealer here doesn't even have a Z on the lot or in the showroom, so they aren't much help.

I'm not sure Fusz would agree with that...when I used to sell motorcycles, I could go onto the BMW, Ducati, MV-Agusta and Aprilia sites and see all inventory in the country.

Interesting. That's what I've been told before. Prolly wrong. I trust Fusz' word.
