+1.

That's probably the price you would pay for a brand new leftover 08 base Z.

welcome and enjoy the car!
IMHO the '07 Z's engine is a lot better than the '06's.

plus no chance of the oil consumption issues your year had.



if everyone else says this isn't such a good deal with tax and license and warranty out the door, then show us where the good deals are pls.

I think you got a pretty good deal. Based on the search for my Z, I would've snatched that baby up in a heartbeat!

Who cares about cruise control in a 350Z? I used my once to see if it worked. I am all about driving a sports car.

What's up with so many people buying base models? Do you guys think that stability control and traction control aren't important things on a relatively high-powered rwd car?

I got my 06' Enthu in 05'; Almost payed off and I haven't looked back.

f.y.i. to all > My oil consumption is fine

I would have liked the 7500 redline, but that wasn't an option for me back then, and I couldn't wait (I needed a ride pretty quick)

i think i lucked out, i dont have that oil consumption issue so far. maybe its a 50/50 thing.

but yes he has the better engine but its a base. maybe its just break even compared to mine.

you can if you want. two of those z's have higher mileage, and all 3 are sold by private party.
two of them have front bumper damage/rock chips. not significant, but this decreases value, of course.
not to mention the 2nd one you posted is not such a desired color (orange lol) and the OP states it's 900 dollars to fix the damage to his bumper.

also, the OP of THIS thread is from North Dakota. IMHO, it's way easier to find a deal on a Z where there's lots of Z's around. you got the first z which is in so cal, home of the import scene, the 2nd z is in detroit..lol MOTOR CITY..and the third that has less miles but rock chips in the front bumper and is in texas, another big state with a lot of z's.

Default Awesome looking Z

Congrats on your new Z. I got mine a month ago and absolutley LOVE it. Do you plan on modding it out? I already have rims, tires, exhaust, eibach drop kit, and clear reflectors on mine. Just ordered a grill craft grill for it and will be working on the sound system soon. Your Z looks great be safe

I think I got a good deal. Relatively low miles, the car is immaculate. No scratches or rock chips to be found. That price includes the 1500 buck extended warranty, 500 buck GAP insurance, tax, title and license.

So of the ones you put up there, only one is directly comparable, and they are asking $17500. By the time you pay tax and get the extended warranty you are basically at $20000, which is pretty dang close to what the OP paid. Plus his car has not been altered from stock, which many people would think is a big plus when buying a used sports car (less chance of being abused).

looks like a good deal to me. GAP insurance and the extended warranty are important too...in case something happens *knock on wood*

Welcome! I bought my '07 Touring about two months ago and paid slightly above your price; of course mine had 13k miles and a factory warranty left on it.

Did you go with the factory extended warranty? I'll have to consider that option when my 3yr/36k cuts out in Sept. 2010.

Don't worry about what some of these guys/gals/kiddies say, you got a good price on a great car. Get out and enjoy it now!

Tip: Avoid Autozone and other similar auto stores at all costs, you will leave with ~30-40 dollars of cleaning supplies on each visit!
