I would think the frames of the roof is the place where the integrity is and not the thin middle part.

Sunroof, reality check says $750 to $1000

Emblems? He swapped the front bumper, there goes that emblem, peel of the 350z emblem on rear, check, shave burger emblem.... $1500? not a chance in hell.

Shaved door handles, probably no more than $500. $3500? ha

What a tool....

How could he have paid $45,000 for a 2006 touring when new? Dealer prep charges must have been over $7000.

if he has 19,000 miles on the car then when did he buy the car to have low miles like that i have a 03 touring and i did not pay 45,000 for mine so either he got ripped off or hes just a damn idiot and for the sunroof they would have to put supports on the roof in order to hold the sun roof or it would callapse IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, the part that doesn't make sense is "One of the only". It can either be the only, or one of the few. Not one of the only.

I agree $45K would have been too much for this car off the lot. However, If it was a Touring Version @ $37K and it had aftermarket wheels on it say. Then if you were to add TTL it might hit $45K. Don't forget when this car first came out there were those that were willing to pay an extra $5K on a pre-order. So, I can see it. I wouldn't do it. However some did.

Now $24.9K for a built Touring Model with 19K mile on it isn't that bad in my opinion.

His shaved doors are a grand a peice around here. $2000 maybe not $3000 and then you have $1500 in paint if he does it in steps instead of doing the shaving, body work, front bumper all at the same time.

I don't like the sunroof idea. But, strength wise should be fine. I had a couple of aftermarket ones installed and they were better than the factory ones. They actually added strength to the roof, thicker framed metal and all. No squeaks rattles or distortions over 12 years of abuse on one of the cars.
I did go for good quality sunroof however around $500 installed. They are now about $750 not $4000.
However, once again I do know of some people paying $2800 plus install for electric ones with shades.
I always went with the manual tilt up and take off models.

I think it's a good deal at about $22K and I think that's probably what he'd take.

I like my Z the way I like my women however, unshaved just trimmed a bit. ;-0
Notice the shaved emblems on the side and rear of the car another $1000 at least around here
