could be.... if you want an automatic, base model Z, go for it. Don't expect to flip it though, no one is buying anything these days.

this car is selling by a honda dealer....for 23k a loaded 08' model......with 800miles on only.......my instinct is telling me that there must be something wrong with the car....

It's happening here in VA too. New 2008 350Z's going for 24k. It's 2009 and because of the economy many dealers still have 2008 models on their lots and they need to get rid of them to make room for the 2009 models. Doesn't seem odd to me at all.

the 09 370z's are arriving at the dealers now, who is gonna want to spend 28k on an 08 350z when for 1k more they can get an 09 370z, and even though that 08 is "new" it's got 700 miles on it, so it's been demo'd, might not officially be used but it's nto officially new anymore

its not a bad instinct to have, but car dealers are trying to move cars now. and as mentioned above, the 09s are only 1k more. they are trying to move the old product. test drive and run a car fax. you just might be able to score a really good deal.

Sounds about right, these things are getting really cheap. Just went to Nissan near my house, saw 2 for about 25, I'm sure I could get em down to 23. I've done it before. Although, mine is a base model.

Carmax had a bunch of Zs lined up for sale. I just think about the owners that gave them up.

they still got new 08 350z at the dealer going for 24k. but im sure those are the base model. still a good price. if we wait more they gotta drop the price more. im hoping it will be the same for the 370 when the 2010 model comes out

I stopped at the local Nissan dealer today. They have three 370Z. Two base models and one touring. The touring was around $35K. The base models were around $30K. They had one red GT-R and they were asking $101K for it. They had two 2008 Nismo’s, both in black. The sticker on both said $40K but he said I could have either one for $35K. I should have asked if I could get the $2500 cash back incentive too but I didn't think of it at the time. I was tempted but I’ve had my 350Z for less than 4 months and I still owe quite a bit on it. I would have gotten rapped on the trade in. No Nismo for me. But, $33-35K is still a good deal on a Nismo.
