Sold the Z.... Carvana and the offer I couldn't refuse

[Mugzilla]

2024 Sport 6MT. 12450 miles..... $33,200. Paid $41k.

I'll pull the Performance 6MT LSD pumpkin, 9AT muffler, K&N CAI, and plug the solenoid back in. That stuff should sell well. (Already have offers on the pumpkin. All sales will appear in the marketplace...)

I love it, but don't LOVE it. The black didn't grow on me. It's a 6-7 month car here in NJ. Plus, retiring, buying a home, starting a new business,...

I don't condone selling them, but, IMO, $33,200 is stupid $ for a 2 year old car. It's an offer I can't refuse.

Carvana gave us a great offer for my wife's 535i M-Sport, surprised me and no hassle pick-up, only visual inspection, hauled away! I'd say you got a nice offer too.

"...The black didn't grow on me..."

You should have gotten red.

Yeah, I wouldn't have sold if she would have been red....

A friend of mine says that most cars these days are painted in "not colors", meaning white, gray, or black. Too few are blue, orange, or, as illustrated in this thread, a stunning red.

I hope you still pop in here, Z or not.

I was surprised when the Z first became available that there was no true red readily available. I don't believe it was even a color option, at first. Just the Rosewood red, which is fine if you like that color but I was interested in a nice, bright red. How can you make a sports car, especially the iconic Z, and not have it available in red? I love the yellow and the blue but I grew up loving the orange and the red 240 and wasn't going to get a Z until Nissan started rolling them into the states in that color.

Yeah, the key words there are "readily available". Passion Red was available in 2023, you just couldn't find one. I remember some members holding out for it, and I'm still not sure if they ever found cars. There were rumors about problems with the paint or maybe the red + super black.
