Default Need help...close to purchasing!

So it has come down to basically two Z's.

Z1- 2015 Base Sport, new, pearl white, manual (of course), price of 29,500

Z2- 2014 Touring Sport, white pearl, manual, has backup camera in mirror, comes with brand new Concavo wheels/nitto tires, plus the factory sport wheels, ~13k miles, certified pre-owned, price of 28,500

Which one to choose? I'd like to have new with 0% interest, but I would love to have all the options of the other Z

With 0% interest, why don't you step into a brand new fully loaded Z?

I would buy the base sport, would much rather have the piece of mind of it being new. Also the sport wheels are better than Concavo, I wouldn't care about the back up camera, and I prefer the cloth base seats over leather. That's just my 2 pennies

I have the optional camera mirror n it works GREAT. You can get it as a dealer option.

Are you an adult or a child? Seriously, make up your own mind.

Did you already find out you are on Santa's naughty list? This is the explanation with which I am going to explain your snarky and unhelpful comment.

But I like telling people how to spend tens of thousands of dollars of their own money.

The biggest reason to get a base is because you plan on doing lots of mods where you would removed many of the upgrades. Changing the wheels, LSD, gearing, and seats would eliminate most of the reasons to get an upgraded version.

I would only get a used car under 2 circumstances.
1. I personally know it's history, for example it was my neighbors and I saw it every day and it was well taken care of.
2. I have the ability to fix the car myself cheaply and easily because I have worked on many like it in the past and am familiar with it's problems and quirks.

Tough choice. I like the options of the 14, but I like the newness of the 15. I'd probably go with the 15.

My thoughts exactly. I would prefer the options obviously, but is it worth giving up the new factor & 0%
