370Z Takes on Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track

ClevelandCWRU

Thanks you (and dad, hansoac and others!)! There's a reason for the way I'm approaching this purchase the way I am. I''m trained to seek factual information obtained through data and/or observation (hence engaging previous/current owners) as well as to recognize and account for bias. Without getting into too many details, I work in a heavily technical field and in my role its necessary to maintain as objective of a view of issues/problems as possible. I also do a fair bit of technical reading, occasional writing. That's the scientist part of me, the engineer part wants to know every @#$! detail..


In all honesty I actually know quite a bit more about either can than I initially let on. Believe me, I could fill up pages with observations of the minutia of each car that would bore even the enthusiasts here.

In other news, 370Z pulling ahead as my favored choice. Drove it again today, may just end up purchasing one off the lot if an agreeable figure can be reached. One dealer has a 370Z in the exact color, options I want, but it's a leftover previous model year. Not surprisingly, saying they don't sell well in rural Ohio would be an understatement. Most folks around here prefer (ok, demand) their sports cars be of the American variety. Anyway, it's brand new, no miles, not a demo, never titled and I'd definitely be open to buying it. While they have discounted the price, it isn't far off what I could buy a 2011 for with my corporate discount. It's not an inconsiderable amount, but it's not enticing enough to make buying it over a 2011 worth my while. I know they must really, REALLY want to move it by now so I think I can get a better price. Wish me luck!
