got a call from my dealer. i was informed my sales guy doesn't work there anymore, but new lady took his place. she introduce herself and said i hear you've been waiting for a Z for a long time. i said yes, she said we finally got one in and did i want to test drive it?

i asked her for some details and all she could tell me was it was silver and black lol. i wanted to know if it was manual or auto and if there was a mark up. she had to "go check with the manager" and get back with me...

her: good news, the car is manual like you wanted and there's no mark up!

me: how much?

her: they said it was around 36k.

me: seriously? wait...what year?

her: it's a 2020...

me: ?‍

Nice looking car, as odd as those AEs are, I kind of like it
like i was saying, i didn't follow the 370z but i only ever saw a few ae's and they were always white with red stripes, so thought that was how they came. but yeah, the silver doesn't look too bad...

Imagine sending this to a prospective buyer, who can clearly see what the sticker is, and not giving it a second thought.

"we dropped the price almost 10k, it's now only 40k over MSRP!"

boggles my brain cells.
"No Allocations yet on the 2023 Z Sport or Performance.

However, our management said they'll go with a premium on our 2023 Z Proto Spec Manual here of $30,000 down from the $50K, we are putting it out there, it will be sold very soon. It's here on our floor today.

Let me know, thank you."

Slowly but surely, the markup is coming down...
