350z buying help. Please

LONDON2012 · 05-26-2010, 08:48 PM

I bought an 08 enthusiast after the 370z had been released. It took about 4 months for me to regret not getting the 370z. Luckily for me, a few months later, my wife totaled the car and it was worth $5k more than i had paid for it. Now I'm free to buy the 370z.

All that to say, wait for the 370z. I think knowing what car you realistically want to replace the car you just bought with will make the one you bought feel less special. At least it did for me.

Yeah like others have mentioned I would go for the 07/08 model. Its got the better engine plus the LED tailights, full projector headlights and I like the hump in the hood haha. The only thing is there is no track model for the 07/08 Z. I think its just base/enthusiast/touring and the nismo unlike the million trims the older Z's had. So no brembos or Ray's lightweight wheels.

2007 and 2008 had the Grand Touring trim line for the coupe. It came with Brembos and staggered 18"/19" Rays rims. I had the 2008 model and it was trouble free for 25k miles (traded to a Nismo 370Z).
