Default Whats wrong with this picture...

I'm new to this forum... And will get a Z in a couple months (hopefully), so naturally, I've been looking around to get a Feel for the market.. Whats wrong with this picture...

Modded Out Custom Z

I e-mailed the guy, and he won't respond about claiming that its a manual, yet I clearly see an automatic in the pictures.. And he says everything works perfectly.... Just doesn't seem right...

Click the PRINT PICTURES icon, it won't send anything to your printer... It will bring up a new window for the rest of the pictures.. Use that until I find out how to post the URL to the original page...

9900 seems awefully low for 2003 w/ 32000 miles on it ... I get retail 22000 off Kelley's blue book.. I don't know about you, but I would have a hard time selling my heavily modded Z/ZR for less than half its retail value.

Salvage title maybe, since yellow is not it's original color...

CarFax time? If you can get hold of its VIN.

Welcome to the board and Good luck!!!

At least now I can visualize what a Yellow Z would look like with carbon fiber or black hood... hehe

yea its an auto .. I'm guessing whoever is selling the car is selling a 350z and used another 350z picture, or it could always be a scam.

Only way this car costs $9900.00 is if it has a salvage title... I'd look under it to make sure you dont see any damage to the frame. Any welding marks is usally a good sign this car was jacked up...

That looks like Thack's car. He did a custom body kit, the yellow paint and the Lambo doors. His car has been featured in magazines and ads. He is a member here. PM him.

yea as the doc said that car belongs to a member on this site and 99.9% likely that ad is fake. the car has well over the price being asked for invested in it, and also it is located in FL not NY.

That is Thackattk's car. I seriously doubt he would sell that car for under $40k. Looks like a scam and a poor one at that.

They do nice work there, the car is well done.
