You may want to educate yourself first on what VDC does before you post ignorant comments like these . . .

12K miles > 48K miles (less miles = better)

However, I think $19K is still a bit high for an '03 model.

Do a search for "tire feathering" on this board. 2003's and 2004's have this problem.

Hello and welcome to the forum. I would go with the lower milage unless leather is the ultimate decision. Not sure if you mention the color(s), but that would be important in what you really want to get. Let us know when you get it. Also post pictures of it too. Good luck in your search.

All Z's can have this problem , its just an alignment issue. Remember 03 to 08 all have the same suspension components. The only dif is spring and dampening rates which have nothing to do with feathering.

I thought this issue was fixed with '05 models and above? I had to bring my '04 Touring to the dealership for new tires and an alignment under warranty (Nissan issued a TSB for this), and I STILL had the problem.

I would probably find something else.. I personally wouldnt want a touring over the track mainly because of the brembos...But thats just me. But if you have to choose between those two its hard because the touring has such low miles, but then again its a touring vs track...So the paradox continues
