Buy Another 370Z?

nuTinmuch · 09-08-2010, 12:56 PM

I'd go with a 40th Anniversary one or a new STi sedan.

OldGuy · 09-08-2010, 12:57 PM

That's a thought provoking question.
I've had my Z for only less than a year, so if it were totalled now or in the forseeable future, I'd replace it with an identical Z. But if it were totalled 5 years or more from now, I'd then be 67 or older and I think I'd finally have to retire to a more comfortable car. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my last sports car very much and I'm pleased in every way with my decision to buy it and its aftermarket leather interior.

Probably not, so much good stuff out there right now to dabble in.

kenchan · 09-08-2010, 04:17 PM

i'd get another one in the same color and configuration. im not done playing with the Z yet.

phelan · 09-08-2010, 04:31 PM

Replace the Z if I can. If not, then I'm going to find myself my old 1991 240SX to play with again.

I have gap insurance so I don't worry, but I think I will go the Bimmer way.

Just wondering how many of you would buy another 370Z when it comes time to trade or sell the one you have. I'm also wondering how many of you would buy another Z but a different model (i.e. Roadster vs Coupe) color, transmission, navigation, etc. Might be intertesting to see poll results!

kenchan · 08-05-2013, 02:02 PM

sure, why not? i will just photoshop it a different color.

Mt Tam I am · 08-05-2013, 02:06 PM

Yes except that 2014 Stingray looks pretty compelling.

No. Although I liked the 370 I once owned, I don't believe in buying the same car twice because it's like watching the same movie twice.

It amazes me how some people on this forum "downgrade" e.g. E92 M3 to 370z; C6 Vette to 370, etc. and they're not disappointed. But the people who upgrade to cars like M3, Porsche (Boxsters, Caymans, 911s) usually don't want to go back.

...As for the Z35, whenever that'll be released, we will see. Hopefully it will not be in the shadows of the GT-R, because the Z32 tt wasn't in the shadows of the R32 GT-R imo.

enkei2k · 08-05-2013, 02:11 PM

nope, wouldn't buy another Z. The time to trade or sell will never come.
