My name is Derek and I live in TN. I currently drive a 00 pearl white prelude. I've got a nice body kit and all that jaz with alot of aftermarket parts. it'll have 60k miles by july. thats when i'm goin to sell it and get a Z. hopefully, i can get 13k for it, its listed for 10k in kellys blue book. if i put down 13k on a Z i wanna keep my payments under 275. I can't decide if i wanna buy a used 03 or 04, or buy a brand new 06. I've researched til i can't research anymore so i thought you guys might be able to help. here are a few of my must haves:

PPWhite with Blk or Frost leather int
Automatic
if used, under 20k miles
HIDs

I'm going to put rims and a dvd player in it, so the nav sys and wheels really dont matter. I'm gonna fix it up, but nothing extreme. just a sleek little ride without having to worry about a body kit cracking or rubbing. I thought you guys could tell me what I should go for. I'm looking for something about 22k - 30k. Thanks for all the help guys.

 

IMO but Z's don't seem to hold their value like they did in the past and there are a lot of them for sale out there, personally I'd buy a clean [carfaxed] used 1 owner Z. Thats how I got my 03 track model and am very happy. Though they all have some issues [trans.] get one with warranty left and you should be good to go.

 

you can get an 06 base for under 26 grand plus tax and lic.

edit: i dont know about you, but i like to be the first owner of a sports car. you never know how the previous owner drove the car, regardless if they say they drove it like a granny

 

Welcome to the forum.

Pikes Peak White with Frost interior is very rare. Happy shopping.
