I remember a member here took a trip to japan a year or so ago & posted up the original chassis at the Nissan Museum in Japan & it was Painted in Le Mans Sunset. I will dig for the picture later tonite or in the morning.

 

thats the first one in america if im not mistaken the 350z was in japan in 2001 right after the ending of the 300zx

 

#0000 was crushed #0001 is owned by a member on here if I'm not mistaken.

 

Its probably got oil consumption issues as well.

 

dont most of the DE motors have that issue and then in 2007 nissan was like well u guys remember that one motor yeah well we replaced with one that doesnt have the oil issue and revs higher and has more power and puts down that power over a greater power band we decided to call it the HR motor lol

 

Not exactly accurate... The DE Rev-Up is the one with the oil consumption problem.

 

Nice find. I hope the next owner treats it like the 1st owner. The more he hangs around here, the Z will lose its virginity.

 

Um, I thought #00001 was the subject of this thread? or do you mean that dealer is a member here?
The Barrett-Jackson Collectors auction is on Speed tonight I believe - might see this car on that.

 

Someone was asking about the 2007 Nismo edition #0001 not the topic of this thread the 2003 VIN #000001.

 

^^^^^^^Gotcha. I live in the state of confusion, lol.

 

The 2003s have oil consumption issues as well, it is just hit and miss (perhaps just like the rev-up).

 

Sold for $47,300 I'm shocked since you could buy a brand new 370 for that and have mod money left. Guess they didn't buy it to drive it

 

I guess someone is thinking that 40 years from now it's going to be worth some money. Still a whole lot higher than I thought it was going to go.

 

 

not bad at all.

 

saw this in person at the auction, less then 100 miles on it!!!! has cruise and navi!! car looks brand new, was bought for a private collection.

i have 3 or 4 pics of it

 

And they're not posted in this thread because...........

 

The very first nismo 370z with plaque #001 was up for auction on ebay about 6 months ago. I think it went for a couple thousand over market value.

 

I have the #1 of all 35th anniversary. And it is still worthless!

 

hhahahaa
