Huh...that's not too bad. My car is still out and about in October. I may enter if everyone else is doing it.

It's funny how I'm itching to drive the Z and feel like it's close to that time, but I look around thinking it's never going to melt early enough.

Just traded my 2011 Z for a 2014 Touring MT with Sport and Nav for $37,739. Price included trucking it over 500 miles from Illinois to St. Cloud. The dealer even trucked it 90 miles each way from his place to my home in Deerwood (Brainerd area) and took the 2011 Z away. The new one is sitting in my garage with 4 miles on it. We did the paperwork at my kitchen table. It was like ordering a pizza. Sweet deal.

I gave it a try, but I couldn't even get my 2011 100 yards up my road to a sanded street. Had to tow it back in defeat to my garage with my GMC pickup. The dealer in St Cloud (Miller Auto) just said "no problem, we'll just deliver it ". Customer service+.

Second Nissan I've bought from them (wife's Murano). They responded aggressively to the "request for quote" that I sent via Nissan's website. The dealerships in Duluth and Coon Rapids did too, but Miller was all over them on the price. Interestingly, all I got from the Brainerd dealer (about 15 miles from my house and where I bought my first 370Z) was "come in and talk to a salesman". They did the same thing two years ago, which is why I bought the Murano in St Cloud. Some dealers just don't get the internet thing.

Nice! That's a great story about customer service. Consider yourself an owner of a rare car. Hardly any Z's are being sold anymore. Kind of sad.

We are going for sure and prob with quite a few people in our group. It's an event so why not.

Just one more month and I have to drive my Z...hopefully no salty roads on my way back otherwise It's going to get a wash before I get home.

Got my oil cooler and still need to install it and the intake. Waiting for it to warm up so I can work on it in the garage.

Mai-z · 03-07-2014, 06:03 PM

Heated garage here !

I'll be installing coils and front/rear camber arms throughout the next week or so.
