C'mon 7at guys. You all chimed in on his "2015 Nismo tech 6mt or auto" thread and now can't congratulate him after he decided to go with the 6mt? This means you to Jordo
Congrats OP. No dumping the clutch or power shifts till you get used to driving a manual, ok? lol

Over $40,000 for a Z is just crazy to me, cant you get a used GT-R for like 50-60k? I think its worth saving an extra 10-20k for a GTR, your getting a supercar with back seats.

What a great early Xmas gift to yourself. And you chose the correct transmission too, nice job.

2015 nismo tech has no power seats and no heated seats which was i a bit bummed on but those recaro seats (10k worth) makes up for it, makes the interior that much nicer.

Well I can understand the "new car" feeling, I bet it feels amazing! My co-worker just got herself a brand new Audi A4-S line for like $45,000 she seems to be happy lol
EDIT: I found a couple good deals online. Both of these have under 40k miles on them. Last edited by czirrfb; 11-27-2014 at 12:25 PM. |

That is still 20k dollars more and 5 model years older than a brand new Z. I would have done the same thing as OP. Plus his insurance would have been twice as much with the GTR.

Well yeah of course the GTR is tough to live with, im sure it cost a fortune to maintain as well, he could just twin turbo his 370z and be close to a stock GTR in performance and have a newer car. But I think as nissan fans we all dream of owning a GTR one day haha

i don't know about 'smooth' shifts if you're still new to the manual... especially the Z. the SRM will definitely help aleviate any overly rough shifts.
all i can say is... who the f- cares about what others think. your money, you spend it how you please. do what you want. all that matters is ENJOY THE MOFO CAR!!!!! ps canadia offers the 2015 nismo now BUT no auto version is available based on the website |

OP, congrats on getting the car you wanted and liked best and at a very good deal! Looking forward to pics -- enjoy! BTW: It's the "right choice" or "wrong choice" comments I was ranting and raving about, not the "great choice/you won't regret it!" posts -- very different implication there... Ah, never mind... OP is happy with purchase, thus, everyone who bothered to post should be happy too, and that includes me
