After almost 3 months of looking for a used 2007 Z with the features and in the color I wanted - I decided it would be best to buy a brand new 2008. With the Nissan rebate on 2008 inventory, I was able to get $9K off of the sticker price.

Got the Touring in PPW and could not be happier with my purchase! Getting a stock rear spoiler installed next weekend and considering the 3M Clear Bra. Not so sure I want the bra on my hood though - probably just the front bumper. Dont want to break up the finish too much...

WOW - I love that car!! Follow the link for photos:

Congrats Nice color

 

Welcome aboard.

 

Much Congrats! That's what I like to hear! Much money saved on a new Z purchase! Welcome to the Z family and the board! I got a '08 SMB ZR roadster almost a year ago and got it exactly $900.00 below invoice (that's $3812.00 below MSRP). There's a way to do it. But no one really cares on this site!!!! Have great fun with your new Z!

 

Congrats! Welcome to the PPW Club.

 

Very nice.

 

So... Price otd w tax and finance costs/rate?
Other deal terms too pls. Nice color. Will reserve
Judgement on your price until I know more.

 

Nice.

 

Well congratZ on the PPW. Dealers must just about be throwing them out the door at the moment.

 

Congrats!

 

luckyyyyyyyy

 

Nice car...you will definetly love it


dyss: Did I ever tell you I love the quote in your signature??? It's simply fcukin awsome...

 

The price of the vehicle was $25,400 before tax, title and registration (no other fees). My finance rate is 6.5%. I put $5000 down and got $7500 trade value on my 2001 A6 Bi-Turbo.

I negotiated the price of the vehicle over the phone prior to discussing the down payment and trade in.

There are other 2008 Z's out there with this $8000 rebate, especially in the North Eastern states. No one buys these cars in the winter up here.

I did however, have to drive from Ohio to PA. The ride back was very cool though...

 

On my Nismo with 1400 miles on it all my chips are on the hood about half way up (or about 8" past my clear bra). I don't have a clear bra on the bumper and no chips there so go figure. IMHO I would consider a clear bra that covers 24" of the hood. Not sure about the airflow on a normal Z as compared to the Nismo but it can't be that different. Just my thoughts and yeah nice looking ride.

 

That's pretty strong for a dealer car. Sounds like you got a premie price on your
A6 too. All in all this deal is easily a 7 out of 10. 10 being a ****ing amazing steal
deal off of ebay for a short sale, so imo ya done well. Arctic white interior? not
my fave, but still a GREAT ride.

 

Do you do a lot of highway driving? Or maybe you tailgate cars a bit? Surprised that you have multiple chips at only 1400 miles. Maybe I will get the entire hood done - depending on the price.

Does the 3M bra still shine like the rest of the car? I have only seen photos online...

 

Can't keep the car in perfect condition forever, eventually you will have to own up and get a paint job. Must come to terms that either the paint will fade and you will not like the look of it, chips are going to happen else where, or some dousche will be kind enough to ding or scratch your car or worse, hit you...I have an extra set of 3m bra (i know the hood for sure, possible the mirrors and bumper if you want it. PM me and I'll get you a price.

 

Nope don't tailgate and about half the miles were highway. I have a 3M bra on this one and for about a year now on my black g35. You can definitely tell the difference if you're right next to it but from a few feet away you can't tell.
