Well from a purely financial standpoint if you are better off now than when you bought it you should get the car you have paid off before jumping on another payment.
That being said, I think if I was going to upgrade it would be to a 07. I would expect them to be coming onto the used market soon.

uhh uve only had it for like 8 months and youre wanting to upgrade? sigh financially thats retarded as you will lose money straight off the bat. Either stick it out and wait till you gain more equity or get an 07 if your going to do that. Id suggest waiting a year and snatching an 07 and just put up with your current car.

list all of the problems you have had in the 8 months you have had it.
buying from a friend for something like this is usually a bad idea IMHO. Seems like it is a risk on the friendship if something goes wrong with the car later on.

2) the passenger window.
3) the feul tank meter is showing bad readings.
4) TSB sound from rear axle.
5) the car get over heated for no reason then cools down. i checked all the cooling stuff.
6) on idle, the car sometimes stall.
7) engine mounts changed,
8) tranny mounts had to be changed.
9) the differntial mounts had to be changed.
i can afford to pay a lil more on the installments but cant afford to keep fixing for high prices.

yeah well, when you grab that '06 and run into the oil consumption problems, it will just shift from Tranny issues on over to engine problems. keep the Z you have, the grass isn't that greenier yet. I understand your point of view when it comes to fixing things, but it sounds like you got most of it out of the way. Only thing left to do is drive it and keep it maintained.

There is nothing to "accept" or not "accept". That's the coverage provided.
