Only you can decide but I wouldn't touch it. You should be able to find a Z for less than $80. Not that the car isn't worth every penny and then some, that's not the way that GM priced it and I'm hoping that the bubble is going to burst and these crazy mark-ups go away. I know of two dealers in my area that sold their one allocated Z for MSRP so there are some out there that can be had. I'd try a couple of our supporting dealers and see what they can do for you.

I'd hate to see the deal he'd offer if he wasn't related.... You're going to spend 66k over 5 years and own nothing at the end? You've almost bought the car depending on the residule value they've plugged in.
I would run not walk away from that deal. I would never lease a car like a Z in any event. Good luck....

Z
so,what your saying is they're giving you 10 grand for your trade???90 g's
then you trade and it's 80 g's???First off,your car is up there somewhere between 40,000-43,000,maybe more for a trade allowance if it is loaded.
Next,WITH that kind of #,you should be down in the 45-50 g range if you pay the inflated price.
Lastly,Keep your car till the z prices level out,paying 90 g's for that car,as nice as it may be,is just plain stupid.
