upgrade to SP & NAVI or not?

tazz01

Looking at purchasing my first roadster and just can't decided if the SP and NAVI is worth the $$$ for the use I would get out of it. We do have the $$$ for the upgrade but odds are pretty good we wouldn't be traveling anywhere that NAVI would be of use (have a family of 3 and a new SUV for that) and thinking the SP would just be a easy of aftermarket upgrade if I wanted.

Just curious how many people have purchsed the full package? and are you finding it worth the cost?

6MT

IMHO, the sport option is well worth it. The Navi isn't. Go buy a portable GPS unit and use the savings for the sport upgrade.

Yeah I do like the SP and looks like almost a break even price if I go aftermarket. I haven't look at the NAVI to much only real thing I like about it is the built in blue tooth since they have outlawed cell phone use while driving in BC.

BTW Wheee I noticed you have the illuminated Kick Plates stated, I lived in Edmonton over 10yrs before moved to Kelowna. Did you purchase the kick plates in Edmonton or just ordered them in?

wheee!

Hey Tazz, I got the dealer to order them and install with delivery. They look great. I also got the metal "Z" logo'd floor mats too.

PS: I lived in Penticton/Naramata for 10 years before moving back to Edmonton... God I miss the Okanagan!!!

IMHO, if you're just an average guy who wants a nice sports car and won't be tracking it, save your money. I don't have either and I'm getting just as much enjoyment out of the Z as all the others with the exception of those that track their cars plus I saved $4K for the SP and $2.5K for the less than spectacular nav.

Nice then you understand why the roadster not just the coupe....man we haven't even seen snow this year except for the feeze in Decemeber. Good to know about the dealership will try to work it into the price maybe lol....

To IDZRVIT those are my thoughts exactly, I want to add couple minor mods for about 1k or so but beside that it's just going to be a cruiser, wife thinks it a mid life crisis LOL....was originally thinking Porsche but for the the money the 370z is soo much nicer ride.

wheee!

Now YOU know why the coupe and not the roadster for me! Good ole Alberta!
