Default Buying My First Z

So, I’ve been saving for awhile and looking around for a nice solid Z, I live in Chicago so obviously I won’t buy one from the Midwest cause there all trashed up here, I’m thinking of going down to Alabama and purchasing one with 136xxx miles, it’s a 2005 special anniversary edition, the only reason dude is selling it is because he’s going off into the military, he’s running it for 3.4k should I purchase?

There's no way to know much from just the pictures. Why not PAY a professional tech to do a full mechanical assessment of this Z before you take a trip down? It'll cost you $150-300 to get a full written assessment, but that's the only way to know what you're getting.

yea ofc, exactly what I’m doing once I get down there. Making sure the car is actually in one piece and doesn’t need any crazy work done to it, I’ve seen buddy do a pull in it the engine sounds good.
