Damn!! you paid alot!!!!

But to help, you will get more if you take the aftermarket parts off and sell them. A dealership wont give you anything extra just cause you have those parts....

Did they give you the stock parts when you bought it. I hear yah on the Z06 thing; I sometimes regret not getting a Z51 LT3 C6 instead. However, now I'm telling myself to wait 2.5 years for the lease to end and I'll pick up a used Z06 or if the GT-R is reasonably priced used I'll do that.

I have a few other cars on my next car watch list, we'll see depending on their value and reliability rankings in a couple years; list includes:

New M3
New Jaguar XKR
C6 Z06
Nissan GTR
Audi RS4

How did you pay $46,500 for it. The most loaded G35 should've only cost $38,500 or so. I don't see $8k in aftermarket options on there. Maybe if you included tax and fees...

Good luck. If you don't have the stock parts, I doubt you'll have issues finding people in Houston or Austin that would be willing to swap their stocks for your aftermarkets for a little savings.

If you get the Z06, PM me after a month of so and let me know if you regret going from a less attention-grabbing, more civil riding vehicle to an all out supercar? I'm in Houston a weekend a month, may ask for a ride sometime too.

WOW.... someone actually paid them what they wanted?? I remember seeing it on the showroom floor when my car was in for service a long time ago.

Sorry man... not trying to kick someone when their down but your best bet is to sell it for what you can, part it out and trade it in or trade it in as it is and bring some Vaseline!!!

i cant believe you paid that much... sadly thats what the dealer does when they sell cars with mods... i would strip the parts off because they devalue the car so id put all the stock parts back on to get as much as you can for the car...

then sell the aftermarket parts here in the market place
