Zs are pretty damn rare cars in general. Especially 370Zs. Nissan doesn't produce many, and they're all on a made-per-order status. I don't know if anyone's noticed, but our resale value is actually pretty good, especially compared to how crappy resale value was on the 350Z, because there was simply so many of them.

Yes. A lot of people that buy Zs from lots usually settle for whatever is on the lots that dealers order, because they didn't want to wait for their specific car. Others ask their dealer to order them one (there's a lot of 'order' thread in the forum) and wait like 3-4 months for the car. Of course, there is that group of people who get lucky and find a dealer who does have exactly what they want.

Me, I got extremely lucky with my car. I wanted a fully loaded 6MT Black Cherry, and the last one in the region was near Canada in Niagara Falls. It was one of the last 3 new ones with those same options in the country. We had it flat bedded from another Nissan dealer, cost me an extra $500, but Legend Nissan covered half of it - so it was all good with me.

Otherwise, I'd have waited like 3 months for an order, or settled on a loaded white car, which wasn't my first choice. Plus, I had a VPP coupon to get the car at $2K below invoice at the time, so I absolutely had to get the car back then.

i live in PA and had to fly to Louisiana to get my Z since the dealerships around here had almost none. it was around the time when that earthquake and tsunami hit japan. dealerships had 1 maybe 2 if they were lucky

and as for resell value i agree. i got such a deal on mine i could sell my Z right now after having it 1 year and profit lol


also to stay on topic i spotted a 350 when i went for lunch....does that count? lol

Probably not. Got plans for Sunday already. We should do a Friday night meet with a bunch of Zs at a lounge or something and just take up the front lot lol

saw what I want to say was the same Silver Z today. once at 315pm? heading west on southern state, stuck in the miserable traffic right by wantagh pkwy, i was in right lane getting away from the traffic. then again, heading south on meadowbrook pkwy around 545pm. i was headed north.

stopped for gas at the station on the palisades parkway north right off the GW bridge tonight and a guy in a metallic 370 was getting gas in front of me. I rolled by and said nice whip, he obliged and we raced a bit up the palisades. not sure if he's a forum member

Nice. I bought my Z in Cortlandt Manor and though I live in PA I took the Z for a spirited run through the Palisades before I came home. Simply couldn't resist...fun roads, beautiful views.

This week I've seen a bunch of Z's here in PA, I would say 2 a day on average. Guess people are getting their toys out now that the weather is getting so nice.

As a previous Genesis Coupe owner all I can say is ...

Drag Race - Genesis Coupe, 370Z, Mustang GT - YouTube

Suck it Ford and Hyundai!

With all these cars on crossbay we should do a meet there one night. We can do forest park or go all the way down crossbay near that bridge.

Hopefully people won't complaint "I live far" -__- when they actually bought a car to commute and keep say that bs -__-
