should i buy this car?
the dealer had this car since July and they did not sell it.
It's an 04 touring.
they are willing to give me at 500$ below invoice with 2% financing for 5 years (60 months).
-floor mats
-splash guards
-cargo convenience package
-aluminum kickplate
-trunk mat
think i should do it?
it is a new car and will have warranty?
Please provide me feedback before I jump the gun.
any cons?

I'm willing to bet you can get under that. I got 1.5k off invoice ($33200) invoice was $34400 for a fully loaded track model. Try to get a lower price if you want. Got 2% financing too.

How many miles does this car have on it? If it is under 5k i'll offer him like 27k and the car is going to depreciate cuz we're going into the new year.
Technical i got my car for like 27,300 but after finance i got it for 32,000

Go buy it.
Remember, if you posted a dealer was giving you the car free at least one person would tell you he got his free AND the dealer payed his insurance!!

i think it's a fair deal. I know somewhere someone will always have a better deal, but if that's the idea I want to achieve then I will end up getting a car in 2009...lol

Re: should i buy this car?
Fantastic deal...anyone that says otherwise must be very lucky or very very good. You'll love it, it's a big move up from the Stook (my previous car as well). Don't get me wrong the Honda is definitely a little more nimble...but IMO the Z is an upgrade in almost every way. Enjoy it, and what are your other 2 cars? Sounds like you have great taste!

UPDATE:
I drove the car but ended up not getting it.
This is the recap.
It's not 500$ below invoice. actually 2000$ below invoice and they are giving me 2.0% interest over 5 years.
Also the car does have 300 miles they claim it was from driving from NJ to MD.
the price they offered for my trade was 7500$ 2002 civic dx with 45k miles.
plus 29432$ for the touring.
I passed up on the deal.
I wanted 7500$ for my trade and 29200$ for the touring. I was a little disappointed when they told me 10 minutes before showing up to the dealer that the car has 300 miles on it.
Oh well. it was nice. Will move on and see what else is in store for me.
My impression of the 350z:
1) It was nice, but major blind spot.
2) the car ws not as fun as I expected, then again what can I expect from a 3 mile test drive and I did not go over 4.5k rpm. I know when i test drove my s2000 for the first time I was not sold on it. but i wanted the car anyway and ended up getting it. Once I got to learn the car's characteristic I was totally in love with the s2000. So i am sure this is the same.
Anyway, tomorrow is a new day, let's see what it brings...

i know the obvious like it's easier to get financing on a 350 but i think that it's easier to tune a supra i can get them for around the same price i just want a daily driver that could have easy reliable power, and car show looks after bodykit wheels exhaust soundsystem all the norms.

I know that supras a very rare and the 350z are everywere i guess that you don't see to many really nice ones but... What about resale value, I heard that they're going to make a fast and the furious 3 and after the first one the average price of supra's went up by $10k and they say that the supra is going to have a nother starring role.
