Outdated ? The Nissan maxima changes body styles every 2 yrs give or a take a month or two. It will likely change again before/if we see another Z...

More fun in an outdated Z (esp one with 3 pedals) than a current maxima

Default Maxima

I almost bought a loaded 2014 in PW before getting my Z. The local dealer has two new ones in stock. I'm afraid to go look. My friend has a 2014 Altima 3.5 she's had less than a year. She came out of a 1999 Maxima before the Altima. She wants to go look at them. Oh oh.

I've never understood buying a sports car for the interior. I think its fine the way it is.

I love the interior of my car. Just enough but not so much to take my attention away from the raw excitement of it. If I want plush tech, I will drive my wife's Lexus.

I see a 100 Maximas a day and zero Z's , maybe there are more people that like what you like, than those who drive a Z and like the Z

Car electronics are like computers, they become outdated in 6 months. You can't look back.

I also have the Touring/Nav and I'd say it's aging well considering the platform is 6 years old. It's not super flashy, but I think it looks great for a sports car. If I had to do it over again, I'd get the Persimmon or Grey. Black on Black is too much. Tech wise, I don't really need much in a sports car. Only thing I'd really add to the Z would be the digital guages/views of engine functions you get in the GTR.
