2025 Z Performance

I got my 2025 Red/Black Performance automatic on 7/22 used with 300 miles for $45,422.31 OTD after a little negotiating, as per carfax dealer received it new on April 2025, was bought on 6/5 and traded back to dealer 6/21. According to dealer older woman bought it at msrp for cash but hubby had trouble entering/exiting so she traded back for a larger used car and cash, I believe a Mustang. Mgr said the customer care on the maroney for 3 free oil changes within 2 years goes with the vin. Only part of factory warranty used was 300 miles and 1 1/2 months. I believe I got a good if not great deal.
Was looking also at a different dealer brand new 2024 Yellow/Black Performance automatic, they had 7 2024 Z's on the lot, it had the exact same options for $53,283 OTD and dealer would not go lower while negotiating. * edited the other dealer OTD, had finger slip, had $51,283 when it was $53,283 OTD, car was $48094, Platinum Care $2495 (nitrogen etc,) private agency fee $298: Doc fee $1299, electronic filing fee $599.95 license fee $250, doc stamps $232.40 plus some others, would not negotiate on the fees even the Platinum Care, no wonder they had 7 Z's. Must have had Nissan incentives then as they were advertising it for $49,999, this week it is $52,999. My Red/Black I purchased was $42,833.54, agency e tag fee $178.95, dealer fee $987,reg $82.85, taxes. Big difference of the fees between dealers.
Your opinions, did I make the right deal.

2025 Zs have started to finally hit dealers this week and it seems Z production could be headed for at least in my opinion some much needed course correction. There is word out of Japan that Z production is being paused (including for US ) for a number of months until late summer thus ending 2025 builds. 2024 was an extra long production year and we did not see the arrival of 2025s in the fall of last year like what is normal schedule in past years. we saw over 7000 North American VINs because of it. So it seems if this info is correct 2025 will be a short model year very similar to what Nissan did with the 2023 GTR. Lower amounts of incoming 2025s could stabilize the market and I had commented in the past this is what the Z needed. 2024 numbers overwhelmed the current demand driving values of both new and used way down. When production picks back up we could see Nissan gearing up for a 2026 and if it went on sale late calendar year 2025 in the US this would get our market back on track with both volume control and model year introduction timeframes. Fingers crossed this could mean the US might even eventually get another current Japan only color a year after just like how it was with the orange

No the NISMO isn't getting a manual . There are no plans for one
Maybe better that way... so I don't have to plan on swapping Z's again... already went from performance to NISMO... :crackup: :crackup:

Huh. I just noticed the 2025 Z in this picture has Z center caps, rather than the earlier NISSAN center caps. Is that standard on the 2025, or just a marketing photo?

Not standard but an available accessory and can be purchased from Nissan separately.

I got a set of 4 from my dealer for $100. Guy told me the generic "Nissan" caps that come with the Z and other Nissans are $100 a piece. he was surprised the Z caps were cheaper.

Easy pop off pop on.
