Wasn’t the 2020 370z base MSRP $31k? So now you’re going back to 2009? And then using a Feb ‘22 inflation report when Nissan announced ball park pricing last year. And so a 29% increase hits the nail on the head? And while manufacturers have been increasing prices, it hasn’t been to the tune of 29%. Can you tell me what my monthly payment will be for a Z? Give it to me true care salesman style! ?
Yea I think that 40k hits the nail on the head pretty spot on.
In 2009, the 370Z was an almost entirely new design with about a $2k* increase in base MSRP over the 350Z. On the other hand, and as we all know, the 2023 Z is reusing a lot of existing componentry.

Nice try buddy. 2020 prices were 31k. I now know why car salesman get a bad wrap. Lol. jk

The 370z changed almost nothing from 2009 to 2020. Thus the price never really rose much more than it’s original MSRP. I mean the tech in the new Z alone could justify a starting price of 35k. The 370Z had nothing but outdated tech till it’s death. Put a turbo and standard rev match with better improved components and it really does make sense. 30k now buys you a civic or a Miata; a Toyota 86 as well.
Me to dealer: "Take it or leave it. There's other dealers out there who want my business,, you know..." ?
For what market did you hear this? I've heard that Canada and Austraila were going to get a middle ground between the sport and Performance. Though I haven't seen or heard anything about the US market pertaining to this yet.
Completely wrong. We were only offered Sport or Performance. I have the backend documents to prove it. There was no "middle ground" so not sure where you are "hearing" this from. If you want a highly spec'd car...pony up and buy a porsche. A Z car is a standard issue in usually 2 or 3 trims. We were offered colours that's it on either Sport or Perf. And to be exact we were not offered the red interior if you chose Boulder Grey. Time to check facts. But that's what this forum is in service of.
That hardly equals the suggestion that there was a new trim level between Sport and Performance tantamount to "middle ground". I have on my order form the 9" screen. The 8" screen was merely internet rumour running around which I guessed you picked up on. There are no "few other things".
If you read the order form it is ambiguous. The Sport indicates 8" and then it is not mentioned again in the Performance trim but mentions the Bose premium audio which everywhere else indicates 9" but is not stipulated here. So my guess is this comes down with what they do on the production run and admittedly that is a crap shoot. However, whether it is an 8" or 9: does not amount to a middle ground trim level. There is only Sport and Performance for Canada. AUS might be a different animal. The way a Z keeps the price down is by NOT offering a lot of optioning. You get preset trims. Maybe colours are different here and there (Canada didn't get Silver). But all in all I think we've done well to get preorders and FOR ONCE being a smaller country has actually benefited us. Can't say that as a Canadian everyday...
