Default What should I look for when buying a 2008 350Z

I'm looking to buy my first Z, with any luck an '08 but would settle for an '07 for the right price. What should I look for in both? What are some of the good things and bad things? Any info to help in the selection process would be great.

Thanks in advance......

The obvious stuff, mileage, and history of course.

Other than that I’d probably stick with an ’08 since those out of the 06+ seem to have the least problems.

No need to be ashamed. The RSX is sporty and reliable transportation.
