Cool Finally!!!!!!

Hey guys, finally I'm getting Z !!!
I just visited dealer. and they found 2 Z's that I want.
So I'll be drivin' my Z in about a week or so.
We negotiated the price. It's 1500 off the MSRP.
which is 33,200 for 04 Touring PPW Z.
I just wanted some advices.
What do I have to CHECK in the Z before I drive out the lot?
and what kind of questions should I ask my dealer???
Thank you for advices.


P.S. I went to one other dealership before i got my Z.
at the dealership,.....after the dealer came back from
manager's office...
on the paper it says...
"35000 on the road !!! "
so I was like... ' on the road my azz...' ^^

Check the exterior of the car carefully for scratches, dings, or paint problems - hopefully there shouldn't be any. Same goes for the wheels. Also check the interior for any loose trim pieces. Make sure they have the correct tire pressure, and ask if the front end is aligned to specs. You should also get a full tank of gas. Lastly, enjoy the car!

Check the front bumper! for overspray/salt damage!
(see my "Paint Damage" post in the Roadster section)

Can I ask them not to make the holes on the bumper for the license plate...??
Is that possible???
Or what do I do, if there one already??? ask them for replace?

If I had it to do over again I would pick the car up during daylight hours. I wasn't able to inspect the car as carefully as I wanted to (or should have) and the next day noticed the chips on the wheels. Also, I would immediately have the front end alignment checked. Lastly, buy a surgical mask to cover up the sh*t-eating grin that comes with owning this car!

Hey Ji,

Congrats!!

I would check everything that everyone said. Also check if all the interior stuff is ok and not messed up. If I were u, take a test drive just to b sure.

And about that 35,000 on the road. Thats everything included with tax, titles, and tags rite? Are u getting the other one on the road for 32,500 or is that before tax??

TO tell u the truth, I didnt check anything cause i was anxious to get mine,,but i was sure cause it only had 5 mi on it.hehe

As for the liscense plate,,,most likely they already have it on but u could try getting them to fill it otherwise..got to Autozone/Pepboys and get some plugs and touch up paint...check one of my posts...if u want, i can let u use the touch up paint i got...

Khoi
