$48K? I have the same car as you, sans the navi, and I'm thinking that the MSRP was a couple dollars shy of $40K. Did you pay a premium?

I would trust Nissan a bit on this as they have provided the numbers for it when the car was released. Was it 'officially' wind tested, who knows.

What I would like is a solid flat(as much as possible)under carriage. To eliminate drag,I "think" the GTR has this. Sorry totally off topic.

Please don't insult me but as I said before, my car is EXACTLY like yours (except for nav).

I'll try not to insult you by telling you how much I paid for your car.

Nissan automatics have an excellent record, that's one thing they can build right.

depends a lot on location though, and willingness to spend time searching for a deal. For a lot of people, it's better to overpay than to waste a week looking for a price that is a couple k's cheaper.

That said, I'm pretty sure he could have gotten his wheels cheaper without too much extra effort, but it's hard to say for sure.

I feel ya, everything I've owned has been a manual, from my first accord, to my Jeep. That said, I almost considered getting the Z in auto simply because it is such a nice transmission, and the manual on the Z isn't exactly the greatest transmission option out there, in terms of quality as well as feel.

In the end, the love of rowing won out, but only by a little.

That is what the OP said.....
Was not even aware the price went that high, I even shopped fully loaded and was never given a price over 38.
