If you like sport convertibles but want something a little cheaper you could always get a used S2000. That was the 1st convertible I have owned. It was awesome and cheaper than the Z. Now that i have the Z though I don't think I would ever go back to the S.

Search around I'm sure you will find a good deal out there.

I dunno?...I'm kinda weird about not seeing the car in person first. You're in LA right?
I don't think I'd feel comfortable with that.
Thanks anyways. You really did an impressive job. If I put that much work into something, I would have trouble selling it.

$14,000 - '05 with 33K mi - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissa...spagenameZWDVW

$16,600 - '04 with 22K mi - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissa...spagenameZWDVW

$16,695 - '05 with 37K mi - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Nissa...spagenameZWDVW

Good luck.
Either those cars were involved in accidents or there scams... nobody is going to sell Roadsters that cheap, i would be very suspicious...

04 Roadsters with around 60k miles are selling for around $18k-$20k, prices only go up from there as you get into the 05 and 06 models with less mileage..

First of all... Beautiful car Built2shredZ...

I just bought my first Z last week. It's a 04 Chromesilver ZR touring 17K miles completely stock for $21K off the lot. The prices are very affordable now since the winter is coming and the economy is really weak. It took me about a month to find this deal, and I love this car! Try to get pre-approved financing for about $20-22K
and hunt for a low mileage stock vehicle- and have the seller run a carfax for you. My only mistake, was I was so excited about the car I forgot to negotiate an extended warranty, but I'm working on that now. Good luck finding a ZR. IMO the best dayum purchase I've made in years .

Thats a GREAT car and a super great deal! How many miles will the 10 year warranty cover? And is it bumper to bumper like the factory warranty or comes with restrictions ?

It's 10 years / 70k miles bumper to bumper, the extended warranty is from Nissan

I just don't have the time to drive it much, it just sits in my garage, Although I drive it work once a week to keep the tires from getting flat spots, but for everyday driving I use my FX35... This next weekend I'm going to give it a good wax job and then put in the autotrader and see if I get any takers..

Dude - you will get many offers - you have one of the nicest ZR's out there!

I'd buy it if I was in the market.

Remember to check on your insurance. That is one expense that most over look.
Huge 2nd on the part. My ZR insurance is as much as my Z32TT and Titan COMBINED. All have equal coverage.
