Well.. After being a member on this thread for over a year now I sold my CTS a few weeks ago and I am ready to find a 370z! I am so so excited and have already been paroozing craigslist and cars.com

Can't wait to get behind the wheel of one of these beasts!

Yeah, watching autotrader is a great idea. That's what I did for 6 months. Also, get an automatic. You'll thank me later.
















Just kidding. Get the one you really want.

also a good way to get a feel for market/street price on used.

also check carmax. their no haggle price is high, but they have like a week of grace period where you can return the car if you dont like it.

I found the best price comparisons with cargurus.com - they give you an idea of whats on the market and based on that, if your car is a good deal or not.

Cool sports car no doubt, but be prepared for it to feel "slow" if you're used to v8 muscle. It's deceptively quick though so watch your speed if you don't want lots of tickets.

everyone else hit the nail. shop around to feel out the prices and then when you see the one you want you'll know it's the one.

my experience was shopping around and then i saw one pop up in the last minute. i ended up buying that one!

oh one more thing that wasn't mentioned... if you can hold out until fall/winter you may be able to strike a better deal as owners want to off them.

The 40th is so awesomely awesome. I looked inside his z and it was so plain! No leather seats, no color at all inside.. It was a silvery white color on the outside, no spolier, 17in rims, whole back of the car was boring... As are most z's I see on the road here. Mine is a stock 40th nothing extra but makes such a statement next to a plain z..

Ohh and it was a automatic!! Does the z no justice with a automatic!! All z's should be stick!! :-)
