You are in the Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum. Your Hosts are car_man & kyfdx
Anyone know why the 350Z doesn't have a sunroof option like the G35 coupe? This is a showstopper for me, or maybe I'm not the Z type like I thought?

You don't want to get wheels that are even heavier than stock because it will affect the balance and performance of this sports car. If you want to upgrade the wheels you should go with a forged wheel like NISMO or others. These are very expensive. The stock wheels are really pretty nice, but they weigh about 26 lbs, if you can upgrade to some lighter forged rims you will improve accel and overall performance. Also don't go with an extremely wide rear tire or you will increase understeer, unless you correct with a thicker rear sway bar. There is just a little bit of understeer built in from the factory, it's just right for most people, but you definitely don't want to increase this especially for track use! Good luck with your purchase. The 07 model has a significantly upgraded engine, so try to swing for the 07 models. To get a good baseline when shopping for a new model, go to carmax.com and check out the price of their new 350Zs at the Nissan store in Baltimore. You will be hard pressed to beat these prices for new models. However for a used 350, you want to try to get a better price than the used carmax prices. That would be a goal for used 350 shopping. |

So im looking for a Black, Carbon Silver, or San Marino Blue Automatic Touring 350Z. Options: Convenience, Carpets, Kick Plate, XM radio Total came out to a MSRP of 34690. I really want the side airbags... but I cant seem to find one with that package. The invoice on this is 32057 on edmunds. You guys think I can get a better price on that car or i should be happy with the invoice price.... Any help is appreciated guys. Also whats the going APR on these cars? 6%?

Replying to: qbrozen (Aug 20, 2007 8:44 am) now final question before i pull the trigger on the car. auto or manual. i know this topic has been bashed till death.... ive driven auto my whole life and I want to go manual just because everyone tells me this car needs to be driven as a manual. I was also told this is probably a bad car for a beginner at manual since its too powerful for me. lol i know.... i just dont want to risk it because ill be driving this throughout the year even in the winter. i got snow tires and wheels already  the question is: im always travelling (auditor) and ill be driving it all the time year round. AUTO or MANUAL? THanks!

Replying to: johnl617 (Aug 21, 2007 12:12 pm) Honestly shifting with a manual is a lot of fun on twisty country roads where there's little or no traffic. It gets old fast if you're in a major urban area with a lot of stop and go driving. With the automatic, you get basically the best of both worlds - or at least 90% of the best, since it's not quite like a true manual. |
