I know the price is high...higher then i expected but this a car i wanted for a long time...well the 350 that is...but this is better :P And i know alot of people are thinking "why would u do that when u just spent so much on your cobalt"....i have no answer really...i just love the 370z...and after feeling how it handles stock...yea...bye bye cobalt

yea just hoping i get approved...find out tomorrow...like i said in the other post if for some reason i dont get approved im going to buy a used 350z from them...its like $20,000 cheaper...lol. Also something i forgot to mention that just came to mind. The reason the 370z is going to cost me $60,000 is because i still owe $20855 for the cobalt, dealership is only giving me $15000. So the other $5855 is being added to the total price of the 370z...if i had the cobalt paid off i would only be owing around $54000 for the 370z with all the options i got on it.

Ok so i dynoed the car today...did 4th gear pulls...only did 281hp and 249trq. Not to happy with that. Went to a nissan dealership tonight and got to test drive a 370z sport version with the S serious option (rev match sync tranny). That car is amazing for stock...i wanna turbo or twin turbo it down the road. Anyways...i love everything about the car. Still havent decided which version i want. I can either go with 370z sport (has a few options i dont want) or the 370z touring (doesnt have some stuff i want) or 370 touring with the nizmo package. No total price yet cuz it depends what i want and what i can get for trading the cobalt in. He said its around $47,000 though. I put in a application and i was approved. Damn is this thing fast for stock..lol.
Anyways so if this works out im selling the cobalt and parting out the car. Depending on what parts and and if the person is willing to give me a better price + shipping i might ship the parts...go to the North West section and check it out, if the mods lock it. pm if interested.

Now as for buying a expensive car like the 370z, I just can't understand that. What exactly are you looking for? The sound of your post seems like your looking for something fast. Does it also need to be a daily driver? So many factors come into play, and people just don't seem to do their research. You could buy an old school Grand National for 60-70% cheaper then a 370z and beat it everytime! If you want performance, go with an older type of car that is proven to be rock solid. Then buy a cheap daily driver and mod the hell out of your project! I'll use the Grand National once again as an example. bigger turbo, bigger injectors, sticky tires, throttle body, intake manifold, tune on stock engine will go low 11s all day long.

I agree with selling the Cobalt. It is one of the best choices I have made in awhile. Now as for buying a expensive car like the 370z, I just can't understand that. What exactly are you looking for?

Ever since i seen the 350z i loved the way it looks. Then they came out with the 370z which the interior is nicer and the car itself is abit smaller and faster. I am however coming to my sences and realising it is alot of money. Alot of money that could go towards helping my gf go to school for the police force. So iiunno, we will see what happends today...Its still not 100% final that i am getting the 370z...and more and more as i think about it, thinking about getting a black 350Z with 40,000km on it for like $20,000 less. Like i said...i wanna help get my gf into school so that $20,000 can come in handy
