I was at Pinnacle Infiniti in Scottsdale today having some work done on my g35 coupe. I had some time to kill so I walked over to the Nissan side to check out the Z's. I never really considered the Z because it's a two seater.

It looks even better in person than in pictures. Daytona blue really stood out and that is probably the color I would go with if I bought a Z (which I obviously am not going to do at this point, even though I couldn't convince 3 salesman I was just looking). Those Nissan salesmen sure are a pushy bunch. The Z has a noticably shorter wheelbase and seemed to sit lower, too. Really a beautiful car and looks good in all the colors just like the G35.

BTW, how are Z sales going? They must have had 15 Z's on the lot and there were no g35 coupes on the Infinit lot. If your interested, they also have a
$39k 2004 Maxima for sale complete with 20" chrome wheels and "pinstriping".

 

pfft, I hope sales are going horrible. haha, the less the better. makes mine worth more. too bad the aftermarket would dry up fast.

 

39K for the Maxima... typical of Pinnacle to do that. 1st model year of a vehicle and they love to rape unsuspecting consumers.

But... Pinnacle helps pay my bills so I don't complain too much...

 

I guess what I really was asking is if dealers are willing to negotiate on the price. I think the 6MT G35 coupe's are still pretty hot and hard to get anything off MSRP. I ordered my base 6MT coupe in November for MSRP - 32.5k with no add-ons. Tremendous bang for the buck IMO.

Pinnacle definetely rakes it in on the options. Every sticker had the 1 grand automate paint protection and $400 dollar tint. Uninformed buyers with money to burn would be Pinnacles wet dream.

 

i'm thinking that nissan has put too much attention to the US on the z now, cuz we in canada actually have the opposite situation, our z's order had run out for the entire year(which means u have to order it now and get the car a year after) and the waiting list of the G35 is just one month. Basically the US market is flooded with the z but all the market in the other part of the world are out of supply right now~
