Yesterday I bought a 2003 Lemans Sunset 350Z. The car has 8,000 miles on it and it is the base model. I paid 20,000 in cash. I really really enjoy this car, I love the interior and styling much better than my SRT4, but I can't say that i won't miss the pocket rocket. So did I get a good deal?

Sounds good to me.....Congrats.......In the end, the price you pay vs. the pride of ownership is what I believe to be the best way to judge a good deal or not.......Again, congrats........Dave

congrats...I myself just bought a Z, it's a 2003 silverstone touring with burnt orange interior, the car had 10k on it, the car has every option from the floormats to the aluminum kick plates, the car even had a carbon fiber engine cover
good luck

For a couple thousand more I could have done a little better but I mean hey, I'm 18 and I have a 350Z... life is good. Honestly 20K was my limit and i think I got a pretty good deal. Now just to save for some rims... I'm a broke college student, this should be fun...

Very good deal. Are you kidding me? The blue book is way above that. I bet the cash had a lot to do with it. You also saved big time because of the zero interest! Good work. I have an 03 Lemans colored as well. That car just flat out makes me happy!!

Well thats good to know. Yeah i hate the payment situation... I saved a hell of a lot of money up and paid for it in cash! I'm not some spoiled rich kid but my parents did help me out with about 5k... I had about 15k from my SRT4 which i paid for myself. I think i got a good deal, I'm happy

I have a 6% loan on my used 350Z, over the life of the loan that works out to be something like $5K extra in the pockets of nissans fiance company.

that's not true... they can 'fudge' the books with cash and not pay taxes.. which equates to about 3k. People refinance with other companies for a better apr.. or sell the car before it's paid off and the loan goes to another finance company.
