I was under the impression it was the NAV setup that made it all complicated. Might be wrong though.

The nav is basically impossible because of the A/C controls.
The bose is a pain because of a different wiring setup & not as plug-n-play friendly. With the bose if you are doing a huge overhaul, headunit/wiring/speakers/amp/etc then it is much easier because most parts are being replaced.

Well bummer, all of the sport tourings that match my criteria are not in fact Touring models.

How about this one? Only a sport but that's probably sufficient to me as its more important than Touring.

2010 Nissan 370Z, $24,991 - Cars.com

Seem like a good deal? Kind of a lot of miles.

Misfortunes or stupidity?

If you are dropping 30 stacks on a car try doing full research or you deserve to get shafted.

I'm sorry I don't feel for idiots on this planet.

IMO, the Bose isn't that bad to work with. You'll need an adapter or two, but it's completely workable. There's a ton of information in the audio/video section about it.

Base is definitely easier and Nav is definitely near-impossible.

Don't settle for just the sport package if you want the touring package too, just keep looking

If you're paying 20k+ for something you might as well get what you want

You're certainly right about that. Living in Las Vegas though makes it nearly impossible if you are very specific about what you want. Selection here is always absolutely dreadful. I'd be willing to pass on the Touring since I can add the homelink system afterwards, the stereo will be easier to mod and its not like there is a lot of adjustment necessary for the seats anyways in a two-seater.

As it is I will have to go to LA to find something. But you're right, I'll probably keep looking.

You should really look at the for sale Section of this site for purchasing a used Z. Most that frequent this site take VERY good care of their cars and the car might come with some decent entry level mods that you can finance into the cost. And speaking of financing, people have a misconception that you cannot finance a private party car but you can and quite easily if the car is younger than 5 years. Most times you can get pre-qualified for a purchase amount and private party shop all day.

Help a fellow 370z'er out and buy private. You'll most likely save a few thousand and stick it to the idiot sales guy that advertises a Z as front wheel drive.

just sayin...

Saw that car, thanks. Looking for something pretty much stock. And I've never driven one (there are no cars in Vegas to try) so I need to do that before I make a trip. Again, Vegas sucks for cars
