FEELER: sell or trade 05 Nissan 350Z 35th ann. edition for an 8 Toronto, ON

I had purchased a 05 Nissan 350Z 35th anniversary edition, black on black w/ 46kms, 6spd, a coupkle months ago and a week after I got it, I found out that the wife is pregnant with our first kid. So I am looking for a car with a back seat.
I am looking for a rx8, has to be black on black w. low kms,6spd, navigation would be nice as well.

Please contact me for more info and pics of my car,

Trade it in for a Nissan Quest. It's like a 350Z but more seats and doors. It even shares the same engine and steering wheel. OK the Quest had an updated one.

to be totally honest with you guys, I dont want to get rid of it. If anyone has driven one, they will know what I mean.

the only reason I need to get rid of it is because I am becoming a dad and I need a rear seat.

I was thinking of a G35 coupe but I like the fact that the 8 has the suicide doors which would make life a little easier with the kid and I can still be in a sports car.

Dont make this hardier than it already is as I cry myself to sleep every night just thinking of getting rid of the my precious Z

We would love to have you joining us in the zoom zooming!

I do believe Rx8 is much easier to get in / out of for babies at the back than a G35Coupe...

That's why we got the rx-8 instead. j/k

G37 sedan for you. It's no Nissan Quest. But it still hauls.

Does this only pertain to the black cars, or all 2004-2005 RX-8s? I am wondering if my 2004 Winning Blue with an all black leather interior is an American car.

Don't bother with the G35/7 coupe man... the back is just too hard to get into. Plus the resale on those are higher then the 350z so you'll be paying more out of pocket for it. Well.. that add the backseats in that are are completely useless... even for a babyseat. You'll have to get the 4 door if anything. I'm gonna guess the poor man's G35 is the same (new altima).

The 8 won't be as fast in a straight as your 350... but it will go around corners a hellva lot faster.. plus the interior is better... but from what I've read.. you may still have issues getting the stroller and all that crap in the trunk...

best of luck with the car and the kid!

Thanks for the advice, I heard that there is a storage issue with all the crap we will be carrying around for the baby.

We talk about discounts on '08 8's, but '08 350z's are going for 13 thou off.

Anyways, having spent a far amount of time in z's, I'm willing to bet you won't miss it that much with an 8.

Good luck with the baby, completely changes your life...for the better.

lol.. I **** you not my friend... the 8 is a better handling car.. doesn't have the fat *** of the Z In pretty much any review I've ever seen or read comparing the two it's almost always the same thing.. the Z will accelerate faster.. but the 8 will pull through the corner carrying more speed. By the end of the lap both cars are pretty much on equal footing.

Not true. My '05 is black on black leather.

OP: congrats on the baby. And don't cry too much, you might end up loving the 8 too When I bought mine, the previous owner had a baby seat perm-attached to the back seat. The lack of B pillars make baby seat handling much easier than in our other sedan
