What really sucks is when I bought my 350Z in '03, I bought it from VA, which, like CA, requires front plates. I live in NC which does not. After I sign all the paper work, the salesman says "let me check on your car." The dealer was preping it. My friend and I walk outside a few minutes later to find the dude drilling holes in my front bumper to mount the tag. I told him I was driving the car back to NC right now so there was no need for the front bumper plate. Too late, he drilled the holes already. I later got plugs for it and it didn't look that bad.

I'm not going to comment on the price because at this point it doesn't matter, it's not like you could take it back if you paid too much. For this reason, ignore everyone commenting on whether the price was too high/low, just be happy you own it now!

Congrats on your new ride!
If you don’t have plans to move from your state that requires a front plate, I guess I don’t understand why it’s a big deal to have the holes drilled for the license plate holder.
I had the dealer put mine on and it looks fine. I would rather not have one, but since I have to, the bracket that the dealer puts on looks nice and is centered on the bumper…. best of all it was free.
If I ever move to a state that doesn’t require the front plate, I’ll get a fancy personalized plate. JMHO

yeah people keep saying i could have got an 09 at the same price, yeah but id also be paying 3.9 instead of 0.9
either way i bought the stillen plate mount for 70, no holes in the front, so if i ever sell it ill take the thing off

Enjoy the car and don't let others give you crap about the price you paid. As long as you love it, that's all that matters...

I would be happy, forget saving "250 dollars more" that's nothing compared to the total cost of the car. I am not taking money for granted, but when your car costs upwards of 35-40k, a few hundred should be the least of your concerns.
Enjoy the car, and let it be known that your mods alone will make the total cost of the car exceed 50k easy.. lol

Nice purchase. I bought my blk/stone, '08 6MT w/ prem/nav in Dec. '08 for $37,500. At the end of the day, if you got the color combo you want and are happy with your purchase, then that's all that matters. Have a great time with it and remember to make sure you have gap insurance!!!!

Congrats on the purchase!! I'm glad you were able to get exactly what you wanted, and now you don't have to worry about any damage. Well played!!
As for price, I think you did very well considering your location and pickiness in color/options. You definitely could have found a better deal, but not up there in North Jersey.
