Let's see MSRP for a new touring roadster is about $40,000.
Yes it's a 2004 but it only has 13,000 km (less than 10k miles).
Painted Stillen body kit/spoiler and install is about $3.5k.
Price of an stillen stage 2 and install is probably $6k.
Carbon fiber hood (painted) is probably $800.
Lowered supsension and aftermarket rims are atleast $2K total.
And the most important thing is the warranty (this depends on when the warranty started).
But I'll even take a 2/3 year warranty on a F/I setup.
This is a decent deal obviously only if what they claim is legit.

In all fairness to the guy, he is in Canada and the Zs are a lot more expensive there even converted to US dollars. He probably really does have near $80K US in it. That vert for sure costed nearly $60K US up there and he opted for Stillen so it had to go through customs and I believe he really did spend that much. He will have to sell it to another Canadian. The horsepower claim is an entirely different thing though.

I hope you know that Stillen S/C setup is one of the most expensive F/I setups you can do.
A Stillen urethane bodykit is $1300 unpainted. Getting it painted is atleast another $600/$700. Then installation ... it cost me $275 to install my stillen bodykit and that was a steal. I haven't even mentioned the customized hood and painted stillen spoiler. Or the suspension/aftermarket rims.
Please enlighten me with some facts if my claims are ridiculous.

I think the main difference between this and what a lot guys do when they try to sell their fully modded F/I Zs is there's no assurance that 100 miles down the road their engine is NOT blown.
Like I stated before this is assuming the F/I portion actually has a legitmate warranty for the next couple of years or 20K+ miles.

When I said the numbers were ridiculous the main number I'm pointing to is you using an MSRP of $40,000. I know nothing about Canadian prices and don't claim to but that car blue books around $26,000. Thats $14,000 shy of your MSRP price.

Still that rating might be a little on the BS side. Probably used a hp friendly dyno.

Ok fair enough ... my 05' DB has 10K miles on it and the KBB value is still correction: just looked it up $35K... $26K seems low. You have to remember that Roadsters retain their value a little better than coupe Zs.
BTW: we still don't know if they're dealing in Canadian or US dollars.

This car was modded at one of the best Nissan dealers (Westend Nissan)in Edmonton Alberta. They are very mod friendly. Same dealer I bought my Z and had the mods done at.They do lots of modding on all types of Nissans. This car was modded during last winter and was stored in the showroom at the dealer. I think it dynoed at 420hp. The fit/finish and paint on all parts is great.
