2010 40th anniversary ed. 370Z

bvl

The problem is dealers use the 'anniversary' word to imply limited edition. This would be true for a car that sold 20K+ units in a year with a limited 1K run.

The Z did not. There is nothing limited about the 40th relative to any other 2010. Other color combinations are more scarce then the 40th, but its the consumer who may lock into this color and the dealer sales pitch that can keep prices a bit higher.

Smart dealers who traded say 30K for one and let it go for 32K and take the profit moving cars. Others sit on them waiting for the perfect customer. We walked away from a dealer trying to sit on one an ended up with a loaded roadster for only a few K more then they wanted for a 40th with more miles.
Besides...no nav in a 'anniversary edition'. Really Nissan? Really?

In our case another dealer had sold one for 33K the previous week and this dealer held out for near 35K and used the other sale to try to support the demand factor. Dummy in the short term as the car sat for over a month. They either wholesaled it or someone bought it at some point. Wasn't me.
