My first post, I am looking into buying the "Track" model. I previously owned a 93 300z and can't believe its been 10 years since then.!! I owned a 98 M3 but sold it when we got married because I needed a truck. So my wife got an Expedition so that means I no longer need a truck !!!!!

I just had a few questions:

1. I am 6'2" (tall and thin), is there plenty of leg room?

2. Is there a chance that any time soon these cars won't be selling for MSRP? Maybe a little over invoice??

3. Has anything been said about T-tops in future versions?? I loved those in my 93 model.

Thanks.

 

1. Yes.....I'm 6'2 and I have *plenty* of leg room.

2. Yes....all depends on where you're located.

3. Not to my knowledge.

 

I'm located just South of Atlanta. I haven't went to any dealerships yet, but from what I have been reading you should expect to pay MSRP.

 

I live on Long Island and paid about $650 under MSRP....not great, but not too bad either. If you search this board, you'll find that some people have gotten some really good deals ($1500-$2500 under MSRP)

 

1) I am 6'1" with a 34 inch inseam. I fit fine around town, but would enjoy another inch or so travel on long trips. Not really a big deal, though.

2) I bought my car for $891 over invoice in December. There are deals, but it depends on where you are.

3) Not likely.

 

Thanks, I will just be patient and look for a good deal. Did any of you have a 300zx? How much more do you like the 350?

 

I can help you with #1. My husband is 6'3" and says he is really comfortable in my car. I just hope he doesn't get too comfortable, if you know what I mean!

 

1) Don't know... 5'11" but plenty of room.

2) Paying MSRP

3) Doubtful

I was thinking about getting the track as well, but opted for the performance instead. When I first started looking I got narrowminded and just considered the track and touring. I'm going to be getting different rims w/in a year, brakes can be upgraded, and I don't know where I stand on the spoiler.

Just something to think about.

 

Have a friend with 350Z who is 9'3 and he was worried a lot before he got a car - he fits just fine.

You can get under MSRP, at least in Chicagoland. Don't be afraid to travel to get your car if it's more than 400 under - it worth it. You'll complete break in on your way back - and have lots of fun with new car.

As for model to choose one advise - don't base your choise on Bose stereo or Nav. You'll save a lot if you install nice aftermarket for half the price. Guess you already know that Bose really sucks big time in Z. It harts me to think how much I was charged for that "premium stereo"

 

Wow, 9'3"! Now I'd like to see that!

 

Guess he'll be getting the moon roof retrofit!

I heard his screen name is Giraffe350Z.......
