im approved for the 370z. Although i need to make a decision by tonight if i want the 370z or the 350z...at my pay level right now, after all my bills between pays ill have like $100-200 for myself after each pay...thats cutting it really close so i think im actualy going to go with a 350z. Also right now the only parts avalible for the 370z is the intake and exhaust....u can get everything for the 350z so i think thats my better option...ill give u more info tonight when i head to the dealership after work.

And Mr.Freez...not meaning to be an *******, but i really dont care what the camero does. I want a nice looking car that i can work on...camero is not my style...if i wanted to get something for the best 1/4 mile time i would go buy a ZX14R and put nitrous and a turbo on it. Like i said...i want something that i like...camero is not my style.

well i went to talk to the clerks about getting things i need from work...just got a pay raise...my pay went up $150 so im making $1570 a pay now...plus PLD and Field Pay so thats another $1000 a month...i can afford it. I also talked to the dealership about switching cars. They said i can buy they can only bring the payments to 48 months which brings the payments to pretty much the same as what im going to be paying for the 370z. So im just going to stick to the 370z.

On another note...they just sold a Nissan Skyline GTR...thing was nice looking...sold for $96,000

I talked to the clerks today at work. I got a pay raise which i will see this up coming pay...so thats $300 extra a month. Plus my PLD and Field Pay will come in so thats another $1000 a month...should be good to go. I talked to the dealership about getting a 350z instead. They said i could, however, they can only go as far as 48 months for payments which is to short for me...it will be the same payment a month as the 370z....so i said **** it...ill just stick to the 370z. Got to get a few things for the dealership and then everything is a done deal...then its up to me to get the cobalt stripped and get insurence. I'll be stripping the cobalt this weekend...that should be fun.

No offence taken! I just wanted to set the record straight that the 350z isn't faster than the new Camaro. As long as you're getting the car that you want because you like it is all that matters.

My good buddy that went to highschool with me, 2 ys behind me actually just bought a black 370Z its the only one i ever seen in sacville so far, nice car yes, i not a fan of the new style head/tail lights ...
pretty sure the new "skyline" is not called the Skyline GTR, i think its called the Nissan GTR
The new skyline looks alot like the 370
rick, whats the torque rating between the cars?
horse power is not what matters when it comes to the track, its the torque that gets you down it!

im getting my new car hopfully this month.... its a 1993 Civic Hatchback SIR ii its right hand drive, comes with a few goodies like LSD, and a B16 v-tec motor, and recently put a down payment on a K20A motor and 6 speed tranny. this car with that motor, seen many videos on you tube of them running 11.16-11.68 on the 1/4 mile all motor!

The new skyline is called Skyline GTR....i was looking right at it at the dealership...5 signs on it saying "DO NOT TOUCH" sold for $96,000...was talking to the guy that bought it also. The new skyline looks NOTHING like the 370....chris u must be on some serious crack if u think it looks anything close to a 370....maybe u r thinking of a porshe...they look close. But a GTR is like 2x the size as the 370...it looks like a box and the lights r all different....

Honestly chris i really dont care anymore what u get...i would have cared if **** never hit the fan but i really dont care anymore. This thread is about my new ride...not yours. So please dont thread jack.

Anyways on another note...big update. Talked to the dealership and made a awesome deal with them. As much as i wanted that white 370z which comes with the $6000 sports package. The only thing i really liked in that package was the 19" rims....the synro rev match, i really didnt care for...the small spolier it comes with, i didnt care for...and a few other parts. So they found me a grey 370z touring version. Also i stilled need to put $4500 down payment down which i didnt like...so i got them to get rid of that. It was suppose to be $5000 but i made a $500 deposit. So instead of killing the downpayment and giving me my $500 back....they used that $500 to put a K&N dual cold air intake system on the car...which costs $1200. So the details now r....

2009 370z Touring
Grey
Duel K&N Cold Air Intake
Still gotta confirm when they get the paperwork done but it should be $49,500 total. ($369 bi weekly)....the other Z i was going to go with was $389 bi weekly...so i got 20 bucks off each payment, no downpayment and a 1200 intake system for 500.

Also when to the insurence company...yes im getting rapped for my cobalt already...insurence is high here cuz of people not paying attention. Was paying $5100 a year for the cobalt....370Z is going to cost me $5300 a year....200 more, not to bad at all.

im doing security, I was suppose to be a light machine gunner with the new C9A2's but i raised my hand when they asked who wants to get qualifed on the LAV-III's....so now im going to be driving a LAV around the Olympics. Apparently we r there for 3 months. Then i come home, 6 months work up training then head to afghanistan on the Task Force 1-11 tour for 6-8 months...by then ill have the money and the parts will be out to twin turbo the car. The car is 332hp stock (to the crank)....guys r hitting between 270-300whp. One guy has intakes, exhaust, high flow cat and a flash for the tune...hit 340whp.

One vendor is almost done making this.... Stage 1 is $7955 (500hp) goes all the way to Stage 4 which is $8955 = 900hp.

if u read the other posts u would have seen that i didnt end up paying $60,000. I ended up paying $45,000- $47,000 (gotta see the final paper work) with no money down. Also got them to put in a $1200 cold air intake system for $500.

I'm going to put this next part in caps cuz people dont seem to notice this part....

I DONT GIVE A **** OF WHAT I COULD HAVE BOUGHT WITH MY MONEY, I DONT CARE IF I COULD HAVE GOT A CORVETTE OR THIS OR THAT....I DONT CARE!. I WANTED A 370Z....SIMPLE AS THAT.
