Pricing guesstimates

I just built what would at the present be my ideal Z: Enthusiast w/ 5 spd auto and side curtain airbags, all for $32,525. That's a decent price and probably a "G" away from what my price ceiling would be.

I think for the new Z, you gotta add at least 2 - 2.5 Gs for the same options. You gotta understand though, it's a brand new model Z. Does this steer you away a little?

You know what's funny? I find myself looking at the E92 335i, a car I had hard time liking because of the somewhat subdued nature in its responses, but looking at all the flashy rides on E90Post makes me want one again... and that car costs substantially more than the Z. So to answer your question; NO.

I told myself no car is worth spending as much as the Germans command, but you are still getting a lot of car for your money. That is despite the fact if you keep the car past warranty and crap may start to fail, despite the fact they're generally pretty pretentious automobiles that are more likely to get keyed than any other car you can buy. Sorry, I'm talking to myself..excuse me.

No that's fine. You have some good points. German engineering IS good but it's expansive. Many people buy them for status icon these days. IMO they are heavy and I just do not like heavy cars. My favorite cars other than the Z would be S2000, Lotus Elise, Miata (even though I can't get past the look). They are all lighter car.

So, back on topic. What price from Nissan would you accept for a 370z with those options?
