New Daytona Blue Z owner
Just picked up a very nice 21k mile, 1-owner car. 2003 Touring 6-speed model. Even has the original bill of sale!
I plan to just get maintenance up to date (all fluids, new belts) and leave it stock. Just wanted a nice summer weekend driver.
Lots of good information on this forum, this was the "most active" Z forum I could find, but man it seems like a ghost town. Where has everybody gone?

Thanks, took a little hunting. I had to fly out and take a long 13 hour drive home to get it, but worth it! It's the exact car I wanted trim/package and color combination.
I paid $10.5k for it, which I thought was fair given its condition/miles. How do you think I did? All that's wrong with it are bad hatch struts, which seem to common.

Was shopping for an older, low mileage roadster a few months back and as a former VQ owner was biased towards a Z. Found a 6MT here in the Denver market under 16K, grabbed it from a lady in her late 60's and told myself..."no mods." Already have a higher-end tire and wheel-set sitting in my office and a mod plan for 17'.
I'm doing nothing under-the-hood but I just can't sit bone-stock with any ride.Slow board? Yeah...it is...but...I've found the archive exceptional and the benefit of having some good folks here that are responsive and active takes precedence over "thread flood" for me.

Yes, it has a clean title.
Lol, nah, definitely won't get bitten by the mod bug. I've had a couple Corvette's and while tempting, managed to keep them stock.
Nice find with only 16k!
