Default New White 08 350Z Owner

Hello everyone!!

I never though I will be driving 350z in my life, but here I am!! bought used fro dealer with only 14,000 miles on them. I'm happy!!!

However, my 350z does not have the cruise control. I rarely use them anyway, but when dealer advertise the car, it was advertised as 350z Enthusiast not a base model.

I called the Nissan dealer and he told me it is 350z Enthusiast without C.C. because I searched everywhere and it seems like only base model dos not have C.C, is this true?

Your help is very much appreciated.

Guys above are right. If you custom ordered it, you could NOT get an Enthusiast without the cc.

See if you can use it againist them and have them knock off a few hundred.

Just keep in mind that used 350z's don't really change much in price from base to other higher models, especially in your case enthus. to base.

If worse comes to worse and they dont budge and you want to return it, take that thing for a wide of a life time before you return it. Just dont crash.

Welcome and I think congratZ. Are you happy with the car is the question? If so, probably not worth quibbling, if you basically got what you wanted.

I love 350z but it was scary to drive around this morning with snow.

I'm not an expert on cars, but it seems like my front and rear tires tread is almost gone.

how long does stock tires last? I heard it doesn't last long.

Tires last around 20,000 miles. In snow/ice country, snow tires are a must. "Blizzacks" are brand I see here most often.

Thanks for the reply.

Dealer will replace the rear tires, but I still have to get winter tires...

Now the question is to replace on 18" stock for Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25 or Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3.
