First off, I'm new here and I apologize ahead of time if this happens to be in the wrong place.

After owning an '05 350z Ultra Yellow 35th Anniversary a few years back, I have always wanted to get back into a Z and regret getting rid of the 350z. Fast forward to today and I am planning on getting a 370z on Saturday. I'm looking at two, one new and one used, and am pretty undecided. I have not seen either because they are both about an hour from my home.

The first one is a new 2013 base with the sports package in Pearl White for $30k off the lot. I like the idea of getting a new one with the benefit of a full warranty and I won't have to worry about how the previous owned might have treated it.

The second one is a 2010 touring with the sports package in Monterey Blue with Persimmon interior with 21K miles on it. They want $24k for it. I do like the Blue and have always had a thing for the Persimmon interior. The basic warranty has just expired but there are two years left on the powertrain warranty.

I work from home and the car might end up getting 5k miles on it every year. The insurance will actually be cheaper for the 2013, but only by a couple of bucks.

Please, if you can, help me make my damn mind up. I don't think I can go wrong, but I'm having trouble figuring out which one is the better/smarter buy.

Oh, and I'm glad to be here. I remember joining my350z.com the day before I bought my 350z. I guess this is sort of the same deal.
