What luxuries is the 370Z Touring missing?

I can't get over all the luxuries it has

The 7000 mile service for my buddies Lambo starts at $8,000.00

if you add depreciation, insurance cost to the service cost, he could probably buy a new small car every year for what it costs to drive the lambo

You want to talk about expensive with "luxury cars"? I drove a freakin' 04 Mini Cooper S (which actually IS a BMW now, technically), the power steering pump alone was $600. Labor not included, just the unit. It actually was a common problem and something that did not happen to me thankfully.

However, the driver side window motor and regulator had to be entirely replaced. The car was used and out of warranty and the parts + labor was over $1000 if I remember correctly!

Luckily I did all the work myself. My prize was a working window and a BMW special tool

Most of the time is not that you can afford the price of the car.

It is if later down the road you can afford the service price of the car!

I read this WHOLE thread only to find out dis guy didnt even post any new pics of "his" M5 he was bragging about! I think that was pretty lame . Although I was enlightened by the maintenance costs on M cars. Maybe he sold the M and got one of those new Fiats 500. who knows

OP I'm happy you didn't get the IS-F enjoy the M, I love the v10 M5 but it is one thirsty beast.
