Good find

Considering its more expensive competition including the Porsche 911 and Audi TT, the 2009 Nissan 370Z should be well positioned to put up an entertaining fight and gain the love of many new buyers.
I guess it was Nissan's Last minute decision to release the pricing.

You read my mind. The roofline does remind me of the Vette.

Look on Nissan's Website, the sport model starts at $32K... not so bad. I'm think $35-36 with nav package making it FULLY loaded. But for $32K you get 19's, 14" brakes, and the aero package... I like.

I'm still not sure if this is an upgrade or a misstep... I have to see it in person.

But from this angle... eww

Nice Vette. I wouldn't mind a coupe with the Z06 fenders. The Z06 is one of my favorite sports cars out there now.
