Default I hate my life...

..well. More so timing at the moment. I found a deal too good to pass up and I'm still sitting here dicking around selling one of my current cars. I finally have a few prospective buyers lined up this week and the car I was looking at is no longer listed on Autotrader. Since its gone I can share. It was an 06 GT, Daytona Blue with a 6 speed. My dream car for the low, low price of 24,900. The only solace I have now is hoping there was something wrong with the car and thats why it was so cheap. At least thats what I will keep telling myself. I just can not find a car. It seems Nissan only made base models for the 07 model year, I can't find a single enthusiast within 500 miles of me. I guess this is just a rant at this point. Anyone out there with an 07 Daytona Blue enthusiast that wants to sell?

'06 for 24,900 is good. A '07 for 24,900 Enthusiast would be great !!!!

Good luck .... You'll find it ... It might take a few months ... but, you'll find it.

Just like my '04 Jeep with 40K on it for 13.6K.... but, that took me a couple of years to locate the right one with the right miles and price. Just got it in November. Kind of like a lifted 350Z that you don't have to worry about scratches or snow. There's a funny HWY 1 story about that.

Patience is the key.

Don't worry, an even better/newer/less miles one will come along at some point.

Just keep looking!

Keep waiting dude, you'll find it. I waited about a month or so before finding the right car, and I was ready to give up until summer.

Then I saw a 07 Touring w/ 8200 miles for $26,900 that was mis-advertised on the web and mis-marked at the dealership so I got an awesome price on it.

The car will come to you when the time is right, my friend.

You have been shopping for a 350Z for 20 months?

I was considering a few cars when I first joined the site. For a time I decided to keep my Eclipse and buy a daily driver. I did that and I hate it. My Eclipse has been for sale for way too long now but I have some prospects this week. I thought I had decided on the Z but now I can't find one.

Default I think I bought the Z you were looking at......

I just bought a Daytona Blue '06 GT Z in Central Florida for 24,900. It was a deal I couldn't pass up. I have been looking for this exact car for a while and I just happen to come across it last week.

I am writting from Bellingham WA. A good friend of mine just past away yesterday. His wife is selling his old car: 2005 grand touring convertible. It has ever single option avalable: including Brembo Brakes. The car is red and is an automatic. The car has less than 5,000 miles on it. The rear bumper has a hole in it! Backed into a peace of metal on a fence. Other than that the car is spotless. She is asking $24,000. Let me know if any one is interested. Thanks.

I needed to sell my other ride quickly when I got my Z also... couldn't drum up much interest using regular methods so I just put it up on ebay. Got so many offers! I ended up selling in 3 days for more than I was asking locally... Kid came all the way from canada to get it too. Ebay is crazy.

I Don't blame you for hating me. I went through the same thing. There were a few in the last couple of months for sale in Miami that were sold before I could even get in my car to go see them.

Aside from buying the car you wanted, I'm actually a pretty cool guy.
