Just a few quick questions:
How do you guys like you Zs. Right now im graduating from college in a a week and a half, an dgot offerd a gret position at a finance firm. so I'm slurging for a nice car now while i can :-) and im seaching like crazy for new car. I found a few Zs in my area, (Connecticut). I'm going to post a link to the car< do u guys think is a good deal or no.
heres the link 350 Z
Some other questions, How much on average are you paying for insurace, I plan on getting screwed anyway by the comany since in young, 21, but i have a clean record. Althoght as a side note i got a quote for a 04' RX-8 Grand Touring, for 2600 for the year.
I havent drivin one yet, so what are the small annoyances that you have noticed, if any.
Does not having a sun/moonroof bother you much, (I love the Z but that bugs the hell out of me)
How about snow, good, bad or hell no, (But I may keep my Saturn as a beater)
Hows gas miileage?
Thanks so much for ur help

mmm... I'd save money on a pretty sizeable chunk down (10k) and put it down on an 06 350z. Too much risk in used 03 & 04 models with all the problems they've had with tire feathering, and tranny issues. If you're gonna get ganked on insurance no need to go in with 0 down, full finance and pay $598 just for the car itself and another $200-300 a month with insurance.

I have an 03 and love it and havent had any major issues except I live with feathering, but if I could do it all over, I wish my Z was an 05 model. BEN
