stuarty Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Hi all, Ive been looking at changing my 350z to a new 370z recently but they have been out of my price range. I was offered a brand new unregistered 370z GT roadster today from a nissan dealer for £24999 on the road. They have offered me a trade in on my 350z which is only £500 less than i wanted. Only catch is I'm not sure of the le mans blue on the roadster and thats all they have at this price. I have contacted other dealers to see if they had any at a similar price in a different colour. Everyone of them said no way the car was 10K under list price. Question is, would it be a disaster if I were to get the 370Z vinyl wrapped in the colour that I prefer (white or gunmetal)?

James B Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Think you're asking questions only you can answer fella. It's all down to what you want, though all I can say is it's a damn good price. After holding the price well for some time 370Z's seem to be seeing a bit of a drop at last. On another note I like the Le Mans Blue, though not half as much as Azure.

James B Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Mate, that's beautiful! Yours I assume? Are those the RAY wheels? They look standard but it's hard to tell form the angle of the photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attak Z dosen't have a ZED and last I heard he had not moved the States Oh, and the rear of that 370 is not OEM Only ever seen one LE Mans blue 370 Roadster - at the Nissan Acdemy jaunt at Silverstone late in 2009 and well before their official launch and yes, the wheels on the roadster in my pics above are standard issue 19" Rays for the UK 370 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipar69 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 There are plenty of Zs on Autotrader for £25K with fairly low mileage in a range of colours. I've never seen a blue one in the flesh. I reckon it might be one of those colours that you wouldn't think of at first as being great but probably looks pretty sweet in the flesh!

Chris`I Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 The blue does look good in the flesh, better than it does in photos. But you'd have to see it for yourself to decide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev T Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 i road tested a blue when i bought mine, but didn't take to the colour, g/f liked it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 One of my local customers has one in this Blue... I like it, don't think I would choose it though tbh.... but if its 10k cheaper and only 1-1.5k to wrap it then thats a serious consideration for you to errm well consider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 For £10K off list I'd even have a car in Dull Resale Silver I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Toby (EH 370) has a new roadster in Black Rose with £10k off list. Check out the Middlesborough Nissan sub forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrh Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Bear in mind most of these heavily discounted cars will be 2010 models, not the revised 2011 model. Plenty of barely-run-in 2009/2010 cars out there for £22-23k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnie Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 At least with the 350z facelift's they upped the bhp.......they don't seem to be doing that with the 370z which to my mind means that they are not going to get the current 370z owners rushing to px their older MY cars for the latest one, when the latest revisions are so superficial.........

This is really why I've decided to hang on to my 09 when the finance agreement comes to an end in about 18 months. We could hand it back and get another but unless something major changes in that time I don't think it's worth it. White is still my fave colour anyway so I'm just gonna spend some pennies on a decent exhaust and keep the car until a major upgrade comes along Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were lots of people like Ebized and myself, chopping in cars for the latest model. Maybe Nissan realise that money is a lot tighter for people nowadays?

R35LEE Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I nearly bought one in blue but just didn't really like it too much and Colin put me off the colour too a week before I was going to get it. Just make sure you get the colour you want as there is a lot of choise out there with delivery miles on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
