My Insurance is not that bad... I have two cars, my FX35 costs $425 and my ZR costs $350 every 6 months... I'm 38 tho so that might play a part in it... (Shrug)

I anticipate it being about the same cost of I did bring home a Z...

Check with other insurance companies also. You may be able to get a better rate at another company. Geico was the highest back in day when I was shopping for my VR4's insurance. Allstate was 50% cheaper for me even with a lower deductable than Geico offered.

I bought my 06 roadster with 13,900 miles for 25,500 out the door here in nevada, flawless. well, there were alot of spider cracks in the headlights but im working on that. Wanted one forever and was the best purchase i've ever made.

I bought my 04 Touring Roadster for 25k with 12k miles on it.
I would suggest that you look into credit unions. They have amazing deals, but you have to set up your loan through them. That's not bad though, because credit unions are better than normal banks IMO. I wouldn't leave mine if I still lived in Indy.
Also, buying at winter time is a great idea actually. I talked the guy down 2500 dollars even though it was a no haggle price. I was the only person looking at the car and I visited a few times a week for 3 or 4 weeks before he gave in and dropped the price.
I prefer low mileage and I'll always pay a little extra for it. I drive so little that 10k miles less could be 2 years of driving for me.

I found my new car!!!!
Okay I got my car!!!!
Silver 2004 roadster 57,000 miles for $15,500.00. The dealer doesn't know if its am Enthusiast or touring. I'm confused on it too?...If anyone can help me differentiate the trims that would be great.
It came with 6 months 6,000 mile warranty but I bought an additional three year 36,000 mile warranty that includes GAP coverage for an additional $1,400.00. It has the bose system and heated seats that I wanted, but my only bummer is no navigation and it's not white.
Right now I'm shopping around for a navigation to add in myself. And who knows maybe in a couple years I can afford to paint it white.
It came with a little seam separating on the top over on the passenger side and the car pulls to the right a bit, so it's still at the dealer getting fixed.
Yeah! I'm excited!

The dealer is an idiot:

Congrats on the new ride. Good call on the extended warranty. I wish I had done that. Right after getting my used 04 ZR, my top developed a rip. I was lucky to find a complete assembly available used for $500. Your warranty should cover you just fine.
Lookin' forward to pictures!

Hey.. I just got a 350z. Its a fantastic and well cared for car. Everything I thought it is and more but I think I got the wrong car. It is Performance based. I think I should have stayed in the service based arena. I havent even got the new tags yet and willing to let it go for exactly what I payed.. Let me know .. Its an 04... Ill send pics. if you want. pretty high mileage though ,, but dosent show in performance or its astetic appeal.
