Default Should I buy 2005 now or 2006 later?

350z
If I buy 2005 now it will take me 3 months until it arrives.
Then maybe I should wait for the new 2006 model instead?
However Im not very patient

The new 2005 model is about 53 666,81 USD // 44 578,07 EUR
I will get a discount on about 3 393,45 USD // 2 818,75 EUR

That includes orange paint, orange leather, GT pack and them special rims.

Please help me decide!

Heh. ok 2006 it is.

I hope I dont need to wait to long until it comes to sweden :/
I know this might be a dumb question but will the 2006 come before 2006, begining or in the end of 2006?

I know how that feels. It's hard to be patient when it comes to buying cars. But if it's going to take 3 months just to get an 05 I'd say go with the 06. On the other hand I'm sure you'll save some ends with the 05.

I picked up a '05 a few weeks ago. Even though I'm quite pleased with it, if I had known all '06s would be getting the 300hp motor as well as some other things, I would of waited.

Basically wait for the '06 unless you get a really great deal on the '05.

Exactly what I wanted to hear

Waiting for the 2006 wont be easy but at least I feel like waiting for it now.

I would definitely go for the 06, infact that's exactly what I am doing.
Unfortunately the UK is a rip off when it comes to buying cars (I know, I am a Brit) which is one reason I am buying my car abroad. I actually live in Luxembourg at the moment and am looking at about 37000€ for the GT (I don't plan on getting that tho, easier for me to get the basic and buy the options I want.. ie upgraded stereo instead of the Bose).

I would also advise having a look over at 350zuk.com website which is a UK based site so will have more information for you on UK spec cars.
One word of advice.. some of the US mods don't work on UK cars so it's advisable to spend time on a UK site as well as here.

I almost bought one yesterday too. I think I'll wait unitl the 06's come out and make my decision then. I'm trying to make my down payment big enough to where my monthly payments will be very low but still have enough money left over to purchase a TT kit. If I at least wait for the 06's maybe I'll get a better deal on an 05.

Anyone know if the 06 is getting those little odds and ends worked on. Such as the alignment problems and tranny probs ive been reading about?
