Found this car locally, and it seems to be a good deal, considering miles. Still, its an '03, so I would have to consider tire feathering.

How low should I be able to get the price? I have seen some vehicles sell here privatly for quite a bit less, but of course they were private.

Would the TSB cover this car for the tires? TIA

That's awfully cheap. I would definetly have it checked out by a good mechanic to make sure everything is fine before purchasing it. Good Luck!

that Z is nothing special, it looks like a base model with no options. i like the bose, leather, heated seats, side air bags, rear spoiler, etc that you get with the touring model. for 25,000 used. Plus that Z has the fugly 17" wheels....

I dont want a touring... heated seats arent much use in TX hehe, and Bose sucks, I already have an entire system to put in my Z. A very veyr nice one.

I dont really want the track because I dont want VDC (but the Brembos would be nice)

I think the Enthusiast would be ideal. But right now all I really want is a Z, if its base, it doesnt bother me too much. I really dont want a 700 dollar payment, and this one would be under 500.

But if I could find a used Enthus or Track for aroung 25k (and under 25k miles), yeah, I would jump on it.

Thanks for your advice, but do you think I could get the seller to come down at all?

Looks like A Base. $24 Gs for a Base with 13000 miles is way to much. A new Base goes for around $27000.

Thanks for the advice.

I think its best to wait till Christmas when I have down payment money and just get a new Enthusiast.

Yeah, you'll probably have a hard time finding a Track for under 25K. That's over 10K off the MSRP.

I'd be leary of buying any '03 at this point, despite the cost savings. First year Gremlins might make the car more of a hassle than a pleasure. The "wait 'til Christmas" idea sounds like a really good one.
