ace Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Hi Guys, I have deciced to sell my 350 roadster (which will be in the sales section shortly) and buy a 370z coupe auto but I'm a bit confused on the Limited Edition models I have found a 40th Anniversary model in Grey and also a Black limited edition so what's the difference in the models and spec should they have rear parking as standard or air con seats, both have Red leather/suede trims could one be more desirable to buy than the other for resale later on in life. Also what other colours was the Anniversary model built in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I would say the same about any sportscar... Silver is a different matter but grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 They are actually 40th Anniversary editions, but NMGB in their infinate wisdom decided to call them Black Editions over here So they are both the same spec just different colours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ace Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Thanks now I just need to choose the colour I'm going to view both these cars this week to compare and any others I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipar69 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 The Quartz Black Edition / Anniversary Edition is not a boring colour! And it looks great with the red interior and brake calipers! Not found a single person who doesn't prefer it to our previous White 370Z. Very unusual colour that changes with the light. Rant over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 It's grey Just a very shiney grey Grey is grey I agree some cars can pull off grey like beemers, but that is because they are boring and you see them everywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ace Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 I think I prefer that colour to the Black Edition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Forgot to say previously that those ads are likely misleading too. Neither will have air on seats they only come on the roadster and don't think either of them has the OEM parking sensors. So buyer beware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 Thanks for the notice Chris I was wondering about the air seats as I have only seen them on the roadster I'm not worried about parking sensors I have just picked up some Nissan rear ones cheap off Ebay.

Sarnie Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 ACE, make sure you HPI the black car. For some reason I seem to remember pictures of a black 40th Anniversary car that was on ebay i think as an accident damaged car, looking very poorly for itself. May not be this car but the pictures and reg look familiar to me...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the heads up but I always HPI cars myself even from dealers I was in the car game myself many years back and you would be surprised how many cars are SOR (sale or return) from trader mates even the big dealers!
