Yes Gunn Nissan has the NISMO Z's in stock. Your best bet is to come down here and get one.

Yep.. I looked at it today! They have added a $5000 "market value markup" or something, so they're asking like $43k. It looks pretty hot... I'm especially interested in the rear wing, it looks like it might actually provide a functional amount of downforce.. does anyone know?

Also, it has "body dampers", what are these? I saw one in the front (look near the radiator) but I have no idea what it does.

STAY FAR AWAY.

My wife and I went over there this afternoon, right after work and met with Cynthia. We did sat inside the Z and checked out the engine bay. After admiring the Z, I asked Cynthia if I could see how many miles the Z actually had. She asked my where the keys are, I told I never had the keys to the Z. I quickly noticed Cynthia giving me some bad attitude, she stated that ,"we did not drive the car, we had to push it into the show room". The Z did have only 14 miles on it.

A few minutes of talking to my wife, we decide that I would buy this as long as it was MSRP. We told Cynthia our intention and that we are ready to buy today so, Cynthia went to her sales manager but quickly returned to tell us the they are selling the Z at $1k over MSRP. A few seconds later another salesmen comes by and puts a sold sign inside the Z. He tell us that the Z is sold and that a man over the phone has put $20K down on it..........wow that was quick.

After that crazy incident, Cynthia then ask me, if I wanted to make a bid on the Z! I told that I'm only willing to buy it at MSRP and I proceed to tell her that Gunn and San Marcos Nissan also had a Black Nismo 350Z all at MSRP. Cynthia then goes back to her sales manger office and a few minutes later tells me that Gunn is selling their Nismo 350Z at $10K over MSRP. Then she aske me again if I was willing to bid on the Z....once again I state that only if I can get it at MSRP. Right after that Cynthia tells my wife and I..........."SAY BYE TO THE Z, IT SOLD".

My wife and I left Town North Nissan with a very bitter taste so, I decide to call Gunn and San Marcos Nissan and verify Cynthia's claim about $10K over MSRP. Low and behold, it was a BIG FAT LIE. Big Al from Gunn Nissan state they are selling the Nismo at MSRP, so is San Marcos Nissan.

All I can say is that I would never buy a car from Town North Nissan and how shady Cynthia was in trying to get a quick sale. LOL,ha,ha,ha

True dat..............the Nismo 350Z is a very nice car but not for over $40k. Its kinda funny when my wife saw it and told me, its just a regular Z with some weird crazy bodykit on it.

It's more than a crazy body kit but your wife is a smart lady to devalue the car from a practical perspective. I would try a larger market say Houston, SA, or Dallas. If you can't find one now I'm sure the hype will die down in a few months. If not then wait for the 09 model to come out.

09" should have the 3.7 by then...........I hope it does. I'll wait it out and see what happens, in the mean time I'll just play with my Evo 9 MR and my Z31 turbo.

Everything is functional on that car. It isn't for looks.
