yeah i saw that nissan as a whole was up like 20% but the 370 and GT-R were way down, GT-R sold 92 the least ever since its been out

I am stunned that more people aren't buying this car. The Camaro isn't helping, I'm sure, but still, this is a performance bargain. I feel kind of bad for Nissan that they engineered a car that could meet or equal a Cayman in almost every metric for tens of thousands less and people aren't interested.

I do like the fact that I don't see them everywhere...

I'm not...

X-Mas + bad economy = little car sales figures.

The Z and GT-R aren't "practical"...nor cheap. I'm sure Nissan understands this and won't do anything stupid...like discontinue them.

yah, timing is everything. like discussions about global warming... not much effect in the winter time.

i guess you can say people are pretty stupid or easily pursuaded by weather and climate.

Those numbers don't show the orders for the 2010 model. I believe dearlerships stop taking orders for 09's in Aug or Sept.

Those numbers aren't for orders, the numbers are for Z's sold in November 2009!

GingaBreadMan · 12-02-2009, 02:24 PM

I know. My point being, low numbers are due in some part to dealers no longer taking orders for 09's after Aug. If there are low numbers in the first qtr of 2010, then there may be reason for concern. The upside is the car will still be rare. The downside, it may hurt the availability if aftermarket options.

I'm VERY proud to say that one of those 713 units belongs to me

By the way, if you were waiting for any reason, NOW is the time to pick up a Z. The dealership I bought it from literally told me that because it's the end of the year, they would do almost anything just short of a hand-job to sell off their '09 inventory. I got a great deal.

jookiyaya · 12-02-2009, 06:43 AM

plus we're still in the dayam recession, i dont think we will be out of it even for the 2010 fiscal year.

turns out 82% of Americans still think we are NOT coming out of recession when we were told it has ended, even though online sales/ black friday sales went up 15% more than 2008.

i guess what im trying to say is, not many people have a cool 30 gran or so laying around like us.

so lets thank our lucky stars 370z is still rare to find when ur driving down highway 5 or 95 =)

areyouin729 · 12-02-2009, 08:19 AM

I accounted for .0014 sales

I def like the fact that 370Z's will be more of a rarity, 350Z's are everywhere but like I said in a previous thread

the 350 came out with little competition, Nissan hadn't had a Z in the US in 8 years

America's muscle revival def. hurts the Z but that's a good thing IMO
