Default Sold my 00 c5 for a z....

Let me start by saying Hi! I am obviously new here. Here is the situation. I currently have an 04 Jeep Wrangler, and a 00 corvette. I wanted to cut the 425(jeep) + 560 (c5) payments, and get a DD i can drive year round. So..my father will be taking over the jeep (at least it will still be in the fam!). Now the vette just sold today...so by the end of the week I will be looking for my Z! I was SO close to getting a g35, but something changed my mind, and I'll be getting a Z. I will be looking for an 05 white (ppw i believe) coupe. I was "building my z" on the nissan website, and it said leather is an option on performance one, but they seem terribly hard to find. Soo...Looks like the hunt for a 05 z coupe PPW with black leather is about to begin! Upon purchasing the car i will be stopping at the tint shop to get limo on back and corners, and 20% on the sides, and i got a buddy to do 50 % on the windshield! shhh! i do it on all cars i have had. Just wanted to say hey! and ask if I am crazy to think i can get an 05 z PPW with black leather, m6 for around 30k-34k? thanks guys!

Welcome to the forums.
It should be a piece of cake to find an 05 touring for under 34k, you just have to look around from dealer to dealer and negotiate like it`s going out of style.
And remember, always talk OTD price with the dealers.

Welcome to the familia. Leather is only available in the Touring model, which is what I purchased. I bought the '05 Pikes Peak White Touring MT with Aero package and ended up with a walkout ( TT&L included) of $33,109, which was about $500 under invoice.

Good luck on your search and destroy mission.

You can always do like I did, get leather installed after picking up the car. The dealers can arrange it or you can save a few bucks and get it done yourself. Nissan uses Classic Soft Trim as the "official" aftermarket installer. It will run your about $700.

You can always add leather if you get a Z with cloth seats.
Welcome!

^Correct.

You should be able to get a Performance For around $31k with the optoins you want. I'm getting my '05 Track for just under $33k before tax, tags, and license.
