I've heard they are common in some areas. In my neck of the woods, I only see maybe one per week. I see 3 camaros and 3 mustangs to every Z I see. Otoh, some folks in VA are seeing 5 on their daily commute.

Are you seeing used ones for sale or left over 2009's? People are broke -- not a lot of people can swing a 30K+ car right now, and even those who can, just barely can...

If used, I bet they were leases (or repo'd...).

I agree. I live in Tampa also and we bought my wife's 370 used. There were maybe 4 for sale in a 100 mile radius and most of the ones for sale were all base models (which i was not looking for).

Don't know but I don't see hardly any 370Z's around here. There might be a few used ones for sale but I never see any on the road or on any car lots. Not like the 350Z that is for sure, and even thats kinda rare. You're making it sound like the 370Z is like the new Camaro. lol

Jeffblue 08-10-2010 11:00 AM
i see 5 camaros and mustangs of any year for any 1 z of any year

2. i decided i want a corvette 2 weeks later
3. i realized i can't afford the car 2 weeks later
4. i don't like the color anymore
5. i want the sports package, but for some reason, didn't even think about it when i was actually buying the car
6. wife making me sell the car that i didn't really win in the sweepstakes because she wears the pants in our relationship.

to the more reasonable:
1. growing family
2. divorce
3. moving
4. loss of job
and so on.
And most, not all, but most of these fall under the subtitle of, "I couldn't really afford it in the first place."

Since when do new cars hold their resale value in the first year? There's that old saying about "drive it off the lot and you just lost a bunch of $", 'ya know...

And who says everyone's unloading their new Z's - that's clearly not true.
