Most 370Z owners are older guys with money. But, its the young guys that are buying car's by the butt load. Unfortunately, not many young guys can afford in the 30 to 40k price range and the ones that can are buying Evo's and STI's.
yeah, gonna have to disagree with you as i am one of those young guys and would much rather have the Z over those other two options. As far as the 350Z when it came out in 2003 the fully loaded MSRP was around $36k so i'd say thats not very much of an increase for a fully loaded Z, your boss was just good at minipulating the dealer is all to get that $29k price he did. one interesting thing i did note however when reading a motortrend article for the 350Z when it came out was that even back then they were complaining about the interior noise on the 350Z lol.
