Many moons ago I posted this deal, which in its own right was a bargain, now Nissan has sharpened the pencil even further to make room for the new 370Z Nismo variants.
The Nissan website has not been updated yet, but Car Advice confirms the following prices
370Z (prices do not include on road costs)
Coupe 6MT – $49,990
Coupe 7AT – $52,490
Roadster 6MT – $60,990
Roadster 7AT – $63,490
So did 200 people purchase the vehicle?
wowsers! 1 year's worth of sales in 1 day :lol:
If you can't get 5% off the list price of a new car you are not trying.
Expect to get 10% off the list price of a new car if you know how to bargain.
If the manufacturer is having trouble moving a particular model you can get up to 15% off the list price.
List price for a new car is not a bargain.
I was thinking about this car but the interior looks hideous.
How does this have so many upvotes? Is there a missing clause i'm missing? Like 0% finance with no application and monthly fees and the sales rep will cook you food for 1 month?
Thanks for asking the question I have been thinking in my head for days. I am at a total loss too! I thought most of us will want this to be $20k drive away to consider it a bargain????
Nissan 370Z MPG is approx. 22 mpg, http://www.fuelly.com/car/nissan/370z
Tesla vehicles average ~100 mpg.
After 100,000 miles, you save around $20,000 in fuel cost, going by my slighty tipsy brain calc (alc-calc).
Your alc-cal has ignored purchase price and performance factors. You don't buy a performance car to save money on fuel.
Cost to replace Tesla batteries twice over the 100k miles (160k kms) would be close to $20,000. Net result is no real cost savings going by my calcs.
… and fewer places to charge now…
Listing a RRP price for something is against the very purpose of OzBargain, you and the other "people" who gave this an up vote should be ashamed
I don't understand why this post hasn't been deleted yet cause it's not a deal
Nobody should be ashamed of a freely held opinion.
@4sure: What about someone that prefers a 2.6 Magna, or the weapon that preceded it, the Sigma with it's big-block 4-pot Astron 2600?
Should there really be no shame?
Everybody is entitled to my opinion.
Is this like a NES Mini? I didn't think these were too hard to come by, and now we are excited about RRP drops? No Bargain when you consider the cost, if you want a drop top you can get two MX5 for the same coin.
Negging because it's the normal retail price. Also 200+ votes from mindless upvoters? This is just like those price jacking eBay deals with no actual deals. I wish OzBargain had more quality control. There should be a rule that you can only vote positive if you leave a comment. I would really like to see 200 peoples justification on how normal retail price of this car is a bargain and I doubt a single person bought one.
Used to own a delightful 280Zx (with T-bar roof) once-upon-a-time. Great car and lineage.
