How much did you pay for your used Z?
$14k was not including TT&L. Got PennyLane 3 months ago or so (2014) And a lot of the inside plastics/fibercarbon were scratched up (since replaced for a few hundred $) but all the used 350's I looked at were all scratched up inside. I wanted a lower mile 350 and I really wanted the burnt/sunset Orange so my options were pretty limited, I had to buy from a dealer and drive 2 hours away to pick this up.
I noticed that you could get automatic trannies with great looking leather interiors and low miles for pretty cheap around these parts, but why? I realize that autos can probably shift better than I can these days but what fun is an auto sports car (IMO).

How many miles did you find it with? I just picked mine up in December and had to drive two and half hours to find it as well. Though the Automatics are plentiful like you say. Must be all of the Dr.'s wives cars.

Thx, N0Smoke, Got it with 56k miles on it, I just rolled it over 60k now, doing my first big road trip next month. Sounds like we were both looking at the same Z's at the same time. I see you got the 2008, I wish I realized the engine change to the HR in 2007, I would of probably kept looking until I found a 2007 or newer.
picked up in December, 1995 TT 300ZX with a little over 12k miles on it for 19,100 plus TT&L, plus transport fees, I know its a bit high but oh well. I needed a new daily driver. The nismo remains in the garage.

Payed 5,000 and a xbox one lol.<br/>has 130k miles, 6 speed. rust in a couple of spots, door handle is broke, oil pressure gauge doesn't work, about 0% tread on tires and burns mother f*cking oil. overall i think i got a hell of a deal for it not only because i'm 17 and spent my life savings on it but it's one of my dream cars

its freedom came at high price and therefore it must be allowed to ride free; like the wind

just have fun... do what you want with it but please try not to rice it out. i would suggest getting to know the car first, and then do mods when you can afford them without cheeping out. the cost to HP ratio in the 350 sucks, almost all here will tell you that. hell i DD a z06 (which i learned today really sucks in the snow). enjoy the car sir
