I rode in a TPC turbo charged Cayman and that was one of the most amazing cars I have ever experienced; it was amazing how nice the car felt running at those power levels, however I have not rode in a TT370Z yet so I cannot compare.

i'd take a Cayman R in avocado green

Nicer ride, meaning more comfortable? Less noise? I thought the cayman s was very loud w the engine behind you

I didn't think it was that loud, but I was working pretty hard and pretty excited as well. By nicer ride, I mean a supple, planted, sticky feeling; great handling/cornering but not at all jarring. However, I cannot remember if it had more, less or the same amount of body roll as our car. But most people who get into cars are going to make mods in the area of suspension, bars, etc., anyway.

I got about $24k for my Z on trade. It had it nearly two years. Sport/Touring 16k miles. It was a little low, but we're just starting winter, the economy is still in the shitt*r so I really didn't think I'd be able to get a whole lot more private party, if it sold at all. I looked at all of the closed out E-bay auctions and there were very few selling anywhere for over $26k.

Every comparo I've read puts the Cayman ahead of the Z, even if their numbers on paper are nearly identical. Let us know what happens.

.....and you had the "Sports/Touring". Mine is just base --- so I think we all somewhat agree that my actual trade is fair or fair+

Based on the time of year and the market I think it's fair. So here is the current list of closed auctions. 28 closed auctions, TWO sold. One just like mine at $24,786 and a NISMO for $29,999. Some dumbfukker has a 2009 listed at $39K!

Oops, I missed this one, just like yours, a 2009 purchased in 2010. Sold for $24,100.

This is why I traded, too much BS selling private party and no real increase in sale price.
