Ian:
 
I ordered mine from Power Nissan of El Monte. The only problem is that most dealers don't have much inventory in roadsters if you want a 6 speed. If you haven't already, try the Nissanusa.com website and search their inventory.
 
Good luck!

Unwinding the deal... by vinnyny

My new 350Z Roadster arrived today and I sent it right back. Somewhere between the showroom floor in El Monte and my office in Tucson, the air dam got curbed and left a 9" gash. So, I refused delivery and sent the car back.
 
What a drag! The dealer was totally understanding and offered to fix the damage, but in my book "new" means undamaged. Now I'm back to hunting for a deal...

I got an offer 750 + invoice for roadster touring 2004.
 
Do you think this is good or I should wait for 2005?

Planning on getting a 350Z soon by tacomaboy

After doing what is probably WAY to much research, I have a final plan to get my new 350Z
 
-I plan on getting a 350Z Enthusiast (preferably blue).
-I am selling my old car instead of trading it in.
-I should have 1000-2000 cash for down payment.
-I am getting a loan at my local credit union (I have done much business with them before).
-I intend to search the three local dealer web sites and locate an Enthusiast that fits my needs.
-I plan on printing out Edmunds TMV and a similar CarMax asking price.
-I plan on going in to the dealership with the vehicle that most closely resembles what I want.
-The first salesman that walks up to me will hear -I will buy this car right now cash if you can sell it for 27,500 (a bit below TMV counting no options... like floormats)".
-I plan on entertaining no more than 2 other offers, and if its more than 28,000 I am walking to the other dealers.
 
Does this sound like a good plan? I am not typically a rude/confrontoation person, but looking at sticker prices, the dealerships here are crazy. 2000 for a *protection package*?
 
I work hard for my money, and I don't want to get taken. Does this sound like a fair offer and a method that will work?

The more money you save up front on the purchase of the Z, will likely be used to buy new tires every 10,000 miles due to alignment issues.

My understanding was the feathering was fixed in the 04.5s and 05s, and that Nissan replaced the affected ones free anyhow...
 
is this STILL a significant issue?

Tacomaboy,
 
My 2004.5 has no feathering yet *knock on wood* at 9000+ miles. So far I am happy, I hope to reach 15k before I have to replace the fronts.
 
When posting, be careful when using the "2004.5" designation at the main "Nissan 350Z" form. A guy over there is arguing with me about using that.
 
I posted about feathering and he knocks me for using 2004.5 LOL.
