Hi codek. If I was in the market for a Nissan 350Z and I wanted to get a 2008 model, I probably would pay cash for or finance it. Nissan is not currently providing any lease support on the '08 350Z. On the other hand, if I was willing to go with a leftover 2007 model I would consider leasing it. Nissan is currently providing a special $1,000 cash incentive on leases of the ... Read More...

Nissan 350Z Weird Noises

Rumbling noise in the back of 305Z roadster

Written by: cantgo55 on Jul 28, 2007 05:51 AM

Hello all, I bought my 2006 350Z touring roadster in Nov 2005. I have been very happy with this car up until now. For the past two months, every time I pull into my driveway, I can hear a rumbling noise in the back of the car for a few seconds. The way I pull into my driveway is like this. As the car approaches the driveway, I slow down enough to almost a complete stop, and ... Read More...

Re: Leasing '06 vs. '07 GT Roadster vs. Buying [zeeya]

Written by: Car_man on Jan 21, 2007 10:20 AM

Hi zeeya. Unfortunately, a higher selling price will definitely result in a higher lease payment. I haven't played with the numbers lately, but I suspect that it will be much less expensive to get a 2006 350Z than it will be to get a 2007 model. I can tell you exactly what the lease payments on the cars that you are interested in are going to be like if you provide me with ... Read More...

You're welcome and thank you for the kind words, Carlos . All leased vehicles come with their normal new vehicle bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage. This car's lease payment will depend upon what sort of selling price you are able to negotiate on it. A base 2006 Nissan 350Z Touring Coupe has a spread of around $2,500 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice price. ... Read More...

Written by: Car_man on Dec 12, 2006 04:35 AM

Hi jmatson266. Given the lack of lease support on the Nissan 350Z, all things being equal (namely the selling price), I would not be surprised if it was actually less expensive to lease a 2007 model when it comes out than it would be to lease a 2006 model because the '07 350Z will likely have higher residual values. This is all just speculation though because I don't ... Read More...

Unfortunately I must agree with the post above. I have a 2006 350z base. I've had problems with grinding into 5th gear for several months. I've been to two dealerships and they both told me the car didn't have a problem even after I replicated it multiple times. Nissan customer service is a complete waste of time. They have brickwalls setup so you can't talk to any ... Read More...

Another clutch problem...

Written by: 1347 on Nov 24, 2006 09:27 PM

I have never posted on a message board before, however after my experience with Nissan and my '03 350z I feel compelled. Today after a meager 16k miles I finally got rid of this piece of crap car. My problems in a nutshell; 1. All tires needed to be replaced due to feathering causing excessive front end noise. Nissan refused to address the situation until the recall ... Read More...
