Yes, took out a new 370Z for a quick test drive....actually, I rode most of the time and the wife drove. White with stone suede leather w/sport package.It was sweeeet!!!!!

If it had not been for the $41K price tag I think the wife would have pulled the trigger.

Oh, and the fact that the G sedan is in the shop again for the SES light!!THIRD TIME!!!

The OIL CHANGE didn't fix the SESS light. BIG F@#$@*&ing surprise!!!

But, we have a loaner to ZIP around in!

41k? Is that a typo? I test drove one with sport package and all the options about a month or two ago before I bought my G and it was 33, and I even talked the guy down to 31.

41k is about right. 35700 Base price (touring model), about 5k more when you add the sport package and navigation.

I swear to you on my life that it was the 370 because I remember it had the new transmission that you could downshift with out heel towing or anything. And I know it was the sport package because of that transmission.

carsdirect shows the car that we drove to have an invoice of $38,049with a MSRP of $41,330. Their TARGET price is MSRP.So, there are no incentives right now.

If you had the chance to get it for $31K, then that would have been a steal!!!(the one we looked at was AT, Sport & Nav)

Now, a 6MT with sport package has an invoice of $35K

Are their a lot to choose from in FL?

My dealer has only had TWO and have yet to sell a 370Z

There were 2. One was base and one was the premium in blue. This was when the recession was really bad so maybe they were trying to move product or something I don't know.

I second the good deal on the 370Z I looked at a blue 6mt, sport with 19's and the big breaks.

I talked the guy down to 31 and that was only after my first offer of 30k...

I also love the white... IMHO it is the best color for that new Z.

But I am waiting on the 370z Roadster!

I don't think he has a 370z loaner as Nissan doesn't loan cars... I think???

And if they did it would be Altima's or something... Not the bread and butter of the product line!

SVT please correct me if Im wrong and kudos if I am!

We only got to test drive the Z. Would love to have it as a loaner!!!My Nissan dealer DOES have loaner tho!!! Altima's I think.

Actually, while my wife's G is in the shop for the SES light (third time), she has an EX35 loaner.

Nice. I testdrove the Camaro last weekend. It was pretty good driving. Hyundai Genesis coupe. My pick would be the Camaro. Both felt a little cheap inside but the Camaro got some balls raw out of the box.

Our dealership FINALLY got their first Camaro to show off Saturday.It was already sold of course, so no rides. Looks good from the front and back, but not so good from the side imho.Plus, the interior is fugly!
