You wanted to fly with the eagles but in reality you were just another sparrow.

That is irrelevant to the op's issue.

Thats some hellacious buyer's remorse.....

"I bought a Nismo but want a base model."

Jesus, did you even think about what you were purchasing? This seems ridiculous.

FuszNissan,

It was the difference in price after 2 months and 1000 miles

Sorry if I offended you

Andyy · 03-15-2011, 12:24 PM

I had it for 2 weeks. The dealer was like since it's used the difference will be 5 k. I'm like WTF. The reason for the trade:
Chage color to silver- less of a cop magnet then red
Automatic - I can eat and drive at the same time
Nismo has too much road noise.

Road noise is gonna be the same with all 370s. That sucks though but the saying that you lose 5k as soon as you drive it off the lot is true lol I would just live with your "mistake" and enjoy what you have. But if you have money to throw around, that 5k might not seem so bad unless you can sell it to a private party.

Nikkolai · 03-15-2011, 12:43 PM

Wow, eat and drive at the same time? Too much road noise?

People seem to buying the wrong car.

Andyy · 03-15-2011, 12:44 PM

At first I was thinking maybe I'll lose like 2 k, but five is a bit much, most likely I'll end up keeping it and adding progressive springs.

And to the comment about thinking before buying. I fell in love when I saw it on the lot. It was just too sexy I couldnt resist

I own a manual and can eat and drive at the same time. Did it on the way to work today, in fact.

And road noise will be an issue in any Z. If it bugs you, get dynamat or something.

I don't mean to be rude or offensive, but those are some lame reasons for trading. I can understand a Nismo---> Touring or Nismo--->G37Coupe. But Nismo--->Base doesn't make sense at all. Except for switching to an AT, you can modify your car for a "softer" ride. Swap the wheels for 18" and get a fatter tire and change the suspension. The Nismo is a cop magnet no matter what color. Don't give the cops a reason and they won't pull you over. Honestly, I've seen more Toyota Camry's than sports cars get pulled over.
