Bloody hell...I hate the Canadian markup.......I just spoke with a dude at the stealership where I bought my coupe and he told me the base price for the 370Z was going to be around $47K (even though on the website it states $40K...but still.......)

How the hell is that possible. trade in for a 2.5 + $6000 does not come anywhere close to the price of a 370z.

Second of all, mods usually decrease the value of a car

I was thinking of trading the coupe for the new 370 but my wife would kill me I didn't have my last vehicle for 10 months before I traded it for the coupe.

If the Z had a back seat I would have bought the 350 last year...

I also do not see any way in the world that the 2.5 trade in + 6k is getting you near the 30,000 for the base Z...

I am confused! I went to the dealership two weeks ago and they had a fully loaded 370Z in that weird blue color for $37,000 and yahoo auto has the MSRP for the Touring model at $34,000. Where is all this $47,000 talk coming from?

the 40k-47k is Canadian pricing.

yes except 34/37 - 6 = 28/31...I dont know about anyone else, but I paid about 31 (after taxes fees etc) out the door for my 3.5 with premium. Now I am assuming if i went to trade in, I MIGHT get 23k(EDIT: KBB on my vehicle is 19.3k, /wrists ). There is no WAY in HELL your 2.5 is worth 28/31k trade in. You need to go crunch some more realistic numbers, or give me the number of your dealer so I can go trade my coupe in for 30k lol

I would have gotten the G (35/37) coupe, but didn't want to pay $40k+, or buy a used car...

I love the G...

the dealership where i bought mine was actually a friend of mine and his dad owns NXS(buying back mod'd and luxury cars) so what the plan is that his dad is going to buy ther car after i trade it in

i dont know how im just paying it so cheap but i do have a outstanding reputation at Mossy Nissan, considering all the other cars my family ever bought was all from the same place and non were ever kept longer then 2 years, thats what im thinking???

ill go see whats the deal with the cheap price.. maybe he means HALF of a 370z...

oh and this is houston tx prices, not canadian....

it helps if you not lease it, dealerships or stealerships like it when u downpayment more about 50-70% of the walkout price....i paid 90% of my AC in cash, so i think its why i have good business....

I'm guessing this would be a Lease?

If you Financed and Modded your Coupe, I don't think it's worth it.

Bah. Its the old US conversion rate applied to the canadian dollar ( 1 Us - 75c CDN)

And then its marked up a bit more (Bit as in 3-5k more for profit and its probably a BIT harder to sell a sports Car in Canada, as our winters go for like 4-5 months , not including the west coast)

Why you put only 90% down ... when you could have purchased it like I did? Your planning does not make any financial sense.

I was ALL set to buy a 370 after I drove it cross-country...

That was when they were claiming a base of $30K.

I'm seeing them as high as $40k now.

No thanks.

yep same for me, during cross contry it was dead set on buying one, but the 53K with markup kinda ruinned it for me.plus there is no back seats, not even place for a third person... so it can't be justified now for me. I'll wait for the new S16 from nissan and hope its a 4 seater

To the OP...Take your coupe down tomorrow and drive off in the Z...

That is an AMAZING deal...Let them worry about the resale on your coupe.

By the way...STILLEN exhaust on the 370Z lays down 18 horsepower at the rear wheels...STILLEN intake on the 370Z...ya...That's also 18HP at the wheels...There is ALOT of power left on the table with those cars.
