The interview was in June and the prices quoted were in Yen (3,700,000 to 4,700,000) which I converted to US dollars. It seems high to me but who knows...maybe it will be cheaper given the current economy.

 

Damn you make a good point but if that 37k to 48k is a fact i'll be taking my business to BMW 100% instead. We all know nissan's resale value sucks azz and for that kind of money i personally would rather step up to a luxury sport Brand instead..

 

i find it hard to beleive that the new Z would cost that much more than the previous. I know nissan is using the Caymen as the benchmark for the 370 and i understand the price going up on it but damn that is a huge jump. That kinda takes it out of the affordable sports car enthusiast range. A new 240/silvia is no acceptable replacement to occupy the Z's current price point.

Although i would like to see the Z start to taper off in depreciation though. And i didnt think insurance was that bad on them. I only pay 1100/yr for comprehensive.

 

Oh, don't be rediculous. You can't take a foreign price and/or currency and convert it to US dollars for the domestic US price... that's not how it works.

It won't be ~$1000 more than the 350Z... and sure as he!! not $37K base.

 

^ +1 Have to agree.

The new Z will definitely be under $35K.

 

this is a little off topic but if a 370Z stays in its same price point then if/when a 240/silvia is released where will it be situated in Nissan's pricing and marketing strategy?

Will it be the car to compete against Toyota's rise in sales with the Scion TC?

 

Holy crap. Not this price guessing game again like we did 7 months ago with the 370. Back then the rumor was 35K for a base. If thats the case hello BMW and Nissan learned squat from the 300...

 

I have a 03

 

time to get a 370z! Leave all those HS kids behind...

 

If you enjoy the car, buy it. If your looking for a brand name, shoudlnt you be else where and not a Nissan? Maybe BMW or mercedes?
