Default Sad Day

It is with regret I have to announce that I have sold my 2005 350Z Roadster Touring.

I enjoyed her very much and I am sure I will enjoy the new 2007 Corvette just as much.

I believe I got a good price for her here in Arizona whee we have eternal sunshine. I thinks she held her value very well for the 18 months I had her.

She fetched a price of $30,800. The car is a 6 Speed Manual, 18" Wheels, 16,000 miles and a new set of Falken summer tires with only 2k on them.

Congrats on the Vette! I sold my Z for a Viper, so you're not the only one going 'domestic'.

Congrats on the Vette, I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as the Z. What year and model was your Z (you said you had it for 18 months, but that doesn't pinpoint an exact year necessarily)?

The 2005 Z I mentioned I just sold, was a 2005. Can I pinpoint it any more for you? Just given you a hard time.

Thanks. Correct, the logo is removeable. It doesn't bother me though. Some people I know it bothers. Everyone knows who built the car whether or not there is a logo on it or not.....but I hear you also need some very thin twine and a pair or tweezers.

The last and only other American car I ever bought was a 1993 Firebird Formula, right when they first came out. For an American car in the first model year run, that car had very few issues. They seemed to have gotten it right with the Corvette, so I took the plunge again.

if i had the money to spare, i'd definetely get a new vette, very agressive front end (love the headlights) and plenty of "stock" power to spank almost everyone around....good luck with your vette! please post pics.

no actually vette engines are extremly reliable its just the cheap domestics you have to worry about the less their car costs the least amount of quality they give you.

thats what the japs do well low cost quality

but this isnt what this threads about so lets not go there

Okay I see a lot of you guys have very expensive rides besides the Z. Or even have an unbelievably hooked up Z. What the hell do you guys do for a living if you dont mind me asking? I'm a student now so maybe I would wanna head in the directions you guys are taking? lol
