Hey AZ Z's

I will be picking up my Z by March. Which dealerships do you all recommend??

frost 01-16-2010 07:11 PM

I bought mine at peoria nissan, had an okay experience, not the best, but certainly nowhere near the worst. I've had a few run ins with coulter nissan, won't go back again. They do business like it was 20 years ago with the extra shifty sales guys.

Endgame 01-16-2010 09:06 PM

LOL! Thx Frost...

Hey Endgame, that's when I'm lookin to get mine too! I did a thing through USAA who has a special deal with certain dealerships and they hooked me up with Ken Luther at Power Nissan in Chandler... He seems like a good guy from when I went down there to talk to him. I can PM you his number if you want. I'm also looking to see what Fusz can do, cause if I can save myself a trip to St. Louis, that's awesome... But if he can give me a better deal than a dealer here, then well I go where the moneys good lol.

Hey Guys,

I got my Z at RiverView Nissan in Mesa. I spoke to them after USAA quoted them as one of the local dealerships with whom to work with. The same day I talked to them, was the same day I had bought my Z. The were very accommidating, too; They bought me lunch and kept bringin' me sodas, while I waited. It was a very satifiying experience. I went in with $5K and a trade-in (that I was upside-down on) and they were able to keep my payments in the price range that I could afford.

They said they were pretty desperate to make sales being that they were a very new dealership, so that may be one place you want to check out.

Hope this helps!

Wow that sounds alot like my deal! I'm not under on my trade in, but I'll only have about 2k for a downpayment + trade in. Hmm, I'll have to give them a look see. My only problem is I live/work on the west side so it's hard for me to get to the east side during the week. But if they can give me a good deal, it's worth it. lol

If you don't mind me asking, what is your payment now? I'm hoping to get mine somewhere in the $500 range... but anything less than that would be awesome! lol

Endgame 01-20-2010 09:40 PM

Good stuff guys. I actually have been working with Robert at Avondale. He has been EXCELLENT! Chris, you may want to look him up as he is on the West side... I can get you his number if you like...... Hit me with a PM...

Yeah I talked to Avondale first, I talked to a lady there named Pat. They are owned by the same person as who owned Avondale Toyota/Scion which is where I got my tC and I was really happy with them. It just sucks they don't have any kind of special's going on, so they weren't really looking to make any price cuts, at least when I went there... :ugh2:

Unfortunately, I didn't get that low of a monthly payment. When I traded-in my Jeep, I was upside-down almost $10k (mainly from rolling other cars into other new cars).

However, they still honored the USAA Qoute and I feel that they gave the best trade-in value on my jeep than any other local dealer.

Will do, but I picked up my Z Friday!!!!! I was going to have them ship me a white one, but they had a silver one on the lot that had just gotten there. She was stunning, so I went back to the color I started with. She is just lovely!!!!

I will let you know when I go back out there though... Robert was great to work with....

sounds like me! I wanted white b/c I thought it would eventually make a better color for a race car... they had silver... I had to convince myself a bit, but haven't regretted it at all. it's a classy look for what some might think is a younger guy's car... silver paint also sets off the wheels with just the right amount of contrast and blends seamlessly with the black trim and interior... silver wheels on white paint is yuck IMO (no offense frost!)... congrats on the car! finally, huh?!

Endgame 01-24-2010 05:55 PM

RIGHT!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!! And I am loving her. The Z is such a nice looking car! However, I will say I will have flat black Volks and some CF bits arriving by mid Feb!! Silver FTW!!

XwChriswX 01-25-2010 08:21 AM

LoL Glad to hear you got yours... I'm still keeping my sights set on good ol Black. I have no problem taking extra care to keep her looking her best! It's just SEXY to me =)

Endgame 01-25-2010 10:51 AM

The black is hawt.... I cannot lie....

Red is interesting cause Red's a good color, but I'd want a dark red, like not maroon, but just a red thats been painted over with a coat of like black candy... if that makes sense?

Would the Black Cherry color work???

Endgame 01-28-2010 03:42 PM

maybe not...

XwChriswX 01-28-2010 03:43 PM

No, the black cherry is too Purple-ish for me.

PyroCustoms 01-29-2010 06:22 PM

Who was the white 370 on Bethany Home around 9am this morning? Turned left into Criss town.

frost 01-29-2010 07:09 PM

Christown? gtfo.

Yup. I followed it off the 51 though.

frost 01-31-2010 08:14 PM

How pyro, how is school? I'm in a project management class that's kicking my rear.

PyroCustoms 02-01-2010 12:24 PM

It's going ok. I'm working on my internship right now, then next 8 weeks I have my last 2 classes. Then it's off to grad school...

cmmonte92 02-01-2010 04:18 PM

Hey, I spotted a PG Touring/Sport at the Heart Concert last night at Desert Diamond. It had personalized plates, "C2 TRNR." Anyone? Just wanted to give a shout-out and say, "hi."

Endgame 02-04-2010 07:27 PM

Saw a PG on Baseline at about 23rd Ave or so.. I was in my Silver; gave a friendly wave. Anyone here??

frost 02-04-2010 07:45 PM

Not my "three70" :D

Endgame 02-05-2010 03:19 PM

Darn.....

XwChriswX 02-06-2010 12:29 AM

So there used to be a White 370 that was in my apartment complex (Which upset me cause everyday I had to drive past it 2x and admire it) and now I can't tell if he lives there anymore cause I never see it there... But he works on base. Anyways, long story short, I was driving out of the base today and he was parked next to the street and I saw the drivers side of it. And between the fender and the front of the door is a massive vertical gash of some sort and severe fender scrapage like he slid into something or what not? I dunno...

And completely unrelated, there used to be a PG Z on base that I drove past every morning on my way to work. (It always put me in a good mood going to my shitty squadron). That isn't there anymore =( I'm wondering if he went to another base or what...

I only bring this up to see if either of the two are on this forum and by chance read this thread... :ugh2:

Endgame 02-13-2010 10:37 PM

Was in Chandler for a client call on Wed... Saw a Blue 370 going the opposite way (east) on the 202 just before I ran smack into the storm.... It was about 12 or so...

Endgame 02-15-2010 06:18 PM

O.K.... .So is the owner that works a the shop on Central and Buckeye a member? I always see your Z when I am leaving the office and coming up Central; I saw you today driving north on Central; I was with the family in the wife's blue CX7....

Wondering if you guys would be up for a shifter kart event ??? we can book the whole kart track for ~8 of us

probably a couple hundred each - we'd have to negotiate it... location is at Firebird Raceway... southeast phoenix, just off I-10 going east past intersection with 202/Pecos by a mile or two... 40 mins from Scottsdale... 20 mins from airport... 5-10 mins from Chandler

if there's enough interest, I will call and negotiate a group deal

Chico370Z 02-26-2010 12:46 PM

I am interested! Them shifter karts are fun. Date/Time/Price
