Hey, thanks for your input, just the type of response I was looking for. After some more research last night I am thinking that an '03 model year with low km's may be a better purchase considering my future FI plans.

Thanks again for your response, I greatly appreciate it.

I would go with the 2003 ive had np wiht mine but i bought mine certified i bought it with 18000 it has 45000 on it now np wuts so ever
The newer the car, the better it handles. The suspension improvements make the newer cars handle better. You must have encountered something on the road when you drove the '06. I have driven every year 350z on a roadcourse, and newer ones do handle better.

Hi, did they all have the same trim package? or was the weight comparable when you tested all these vehicles?

Yes, this is comparing the same trim packages. I am an instructor and when our Z club hosts an event, I get to drive many Z cars.

Hi all,

I have decided that the 05' model year would be best for me.

Thanks for all your input, i really appreciate it.

!
I have two in my sights. First is the '05 35th for $36,999 with 18,293 miles (US Car) and another '05 but enthusiast for $34,800 with 11,000miles (US Car).. I will probably go with whoever gives me the better deal, and I am hoping the guy will want to get rid of the 35th, since it will be snowing here within a week or so.
Its raining today so I probably wont get to go and test them but i am hoping tomorrow will be a little drier outside.

I was intent on waiting until Jan, but I am growing ever so anxious!
