so interesting the car chosen for this article is the 2023 Nissan Z

Pretty bad ex

I was unable to find anyone who would sell at MSRP for ANY model (sport, performance or Proto). I was quoted 10K even 15K over sticker repeatedly until I secured the deal I got. I can assure you I'm no "dealer" or employee. Did I get the best "value for my money" probably not....but I dont care. I could just as easily flip it and turn a profit, but I don't care about that either. Id much rather enjoy owning one and driving it.

Dont bash anyone who purchased over MSRP. There are people that spend 7-15K on a SUMMER VACATION or family getaway!!! To some of us, its not about waving money around, or that money doesn't matter, or anything like that - its that we determined the extra price was worth it to enjoy the car now. Im hopeful for everyone that has waited so long that the car comes down in price. I hope you are able to secure one at MSRP or UNDER for that matter. And when that happens.....I wont be upset that you got a better deal than me. I will be happy! Happy I have been able to enjoy the car during that time AND happy that you are getting to enjoy yours now. There are simply not enough of these things to go around at this time.

Well put! My thoughts exactly!!

Just picked up my new Z from the car spa. My first time driving the new Z. This thing is diabolically fast, I'm going to get into serious trouble! What a head turner here in NYC, constant beeps, thumbs up, and camera clicks. Gives new meaning to the song: I always feel like somebody's watching me.

Nissan in Olathe KS for $59834. Only ten% mark up on a performance Z. When they called me about it I told them I would put the word out.

Huh. This car doesn't show up in Nissan's inventory search. @Nezluver66, do you know if it's auto or manual? What color is the interior?

I texted them and they said the car has sold.

I just received my Proto 6 speed manual on February 13th. I was supposed to receive this vehicle at the end of August. The cause of the delay was the 6 speed manual recall. Beautiful vehicle.

Congrats! What are your plans, trips, upgrades? Honest comparisons to your Nismo 370Z? Keep sharing.

I'm still on to the Z, either Sport then upgrade it to my liking for my use, or wait for the Nismo......

Looks Fantastic!! I am having my Proto Ceramic Coated instead. Xpel is pricey . I had my Vette done with System X Ceramic. The results are amazing! I can’t recommend that product enough. Of course you have to have an experienced installer.

Brother that Vette is diabolical! Love it!
I wrapped the entire front end including hood, fenders, bumper, and a-pillars, plus the roof and rear hatch, and the rocker panels. All in was $4,500. Welcome to NYC! The Car Spa wraps true exotics so I was very confident the work would be outstanding. I’m super happy with how it came out!
