Whole South does. They don't exist.

(Find one and you get an E-cookie. Find one in Gun Metallic, Coupe, M6, NAV, Sport, Touring, Black leather, and I'll buy it later this week if the numbers are straight and it's nearby.)

It let me build one so i don't see why you couldn't order it. My guess is that dealer just wants you to get something they have on their lot.

Build Your Nissan | Nissan USA Done in every flavor you wanted.

Then they fail at earning my business. I can build it, too, but they *claim* they cannot order it. I also did not see ANY on autotrader with NAV, which kind-of corroborates their story.

I agree with you, trading the Z06 for a 370Z is IMO a big downgrade.

I think the big reason was that he wanted to buy a house........

I dont know if he hits the track much, but going from 505 to 330HP on the street means almost nothing lol. Once you hit the speed limit, who cares? Does that brief moment of extreme acceleration mean so much?

People buy what they buy because they want it...who cares what their reasons are.















Unless its a rotary motor. Fvck Wankles.

I get used to stuff fast. My z06 no-longer feels any faster than my old ls1 f-body. I know I have to draw the line somewhere. The Z06, I rarely drive because I freak over every minor imperfection possible from road debris, etc. It has become a very expensive paperweight that I am scared to park anywhere for fear of vandals, etc. In short, I'm not enjoying it nearly as much as I could something less flamboyant.

That and I'm moving where there are far more turns than straights, interior, want to buy a house/land, etc.

505 bhp is worthless on the street except for felonious blasts on the freeway. Boring after the first few.

And I think you just echo-ed exactly what I assumed was the case.

Good for you for being in the minority of "Car people" who realize that on the street, those numbers dont mean much. Fvck, you can have fun in a mini-van if you know how to drive...

Z's are pretty flamboyant. my wheels got stolen off my Z in my own driveway within a month. Whenever it was parked anywhere people would look at it. if you want something low profile, the Z isn't the right choice.

I enjoy my 145bhp G20, lol. It's fun hitting the lines just right through corners even in it.
