so how do you like your Z?
im planning on buying one soon, im frankly tired of having to work on my 2000 audi a4 1.8t, im done with it, im OVER it, i want something new and i've always liked the 350z, what are their common problems and so on, i found one that i liked so far, its an 2003, 6speed, convert. with only 75k on it and they are asking $10,000 so i plan on trading the audi in and go from there. how do you like your Z?

I love the car, but yeah the 2 seats and no room does get old. Hell you can't move anything but groceries haha. I went out and got a mustang, so much nicer with room and that V8 hauls buns. The Z is a great car though and has some of the best leather seats IMO. My car is now 10 years and seats like damn good to show for it as a DD.

I love the car and have no regrets. I came from an Acura RSX and transitioning from a 4 clynder to a v6 was the best decision i could have made. It easy to say i could have just bought an EVO or STI, but the 350z is a just pure and all around great enthusist ride.

Window Motors All years have the same ones
Oil Consumption Luck of the draw, but the DE typically doesnt burn much
Valve Covers Same on all years
Camshaft Position Sensors They get old, just like most cars
Tire Feathering Any car can be out of alignment
Hatch Struts every car that has them, will have them go bad.

Biggest prob on mine was the trans, had it replaced to the CD009 under warrenty back at 40K miles. Now the fuel rail cracked, everything else was induced with heavy beating on my car. Valve cover have not been removed yet, 152k on it, track the hell out of it.

I have owned 2 Z cars. The 300zx turbo with 250K miles on it and the 350z roadster with 90K miles on it. Every car will give you some kind of problem. But all the work I have done on both cars was to upgrade the parts. I would say these cars are very reliable. Plus my mechanic says those Euro cars are a pain in the butt to work on.

I'm not gonna lie, for the abuse these cars take I give it to nissan for building such a quality engine. Even at 117k miles and 10 years old, my Z is still holding up to its name.

i was deciding between a 08 350z and 04 05 audi tt or 04 05 gti. after reading all the repairs that people had to do or all the down time they were experiencing with the vehicle and then hearing the about the very few problems the z had from online reviews and friends who owned one, I knew what to pick. since owning i must say it makes me smile daily. if i had to complain about anything I guess it would be uhhhh hmm idk. I like having two seats but then again im only 22, gas mileage could be better but what do you expect? and I could drive a little less enthusiastically... over all its a very fun and pleasing car. keep in mind i do have a winter car for the new england winters.

taking the whole front clip off made it so much easier to work with.
