Hi, im interested in buying a 2006 bottom of the line 350z. I bought a WRX less then a month ago, and the transmission went out, they blamed it on the driver, said that i raced, which is BS, and refuse to pay for the transmission. I am working a deal to trade in my car with Gillman subaru and get a 350Z from Gillman nissan. I was wondering how good the manual transmission it on the 350z, this car will not be raced, but i am curious as to how much the transmission can take quickshifts. Is it a reliable car and worth the money? and how strict is Nissan with there warranties. Please tell me anything i need to know about purchasing a 350z.

 

Forum search is your friend! Info is out there~

'transmission' 'reliability' 'warranty' and 'purchasing', I promise you'll have more to read than you can stand

 

Good luck getting yours I am working on getting one as well. And the base model is not that bad especially seeing that now they come standard with H.I.D. lighting. It makes a big difference at night.. like homeboy said search the forums. I want to get one as well. they are awesome cars.

 

Reliability data above from 350Z owners. Compiled by Consumer Reports.

 

anything bad , or any warnings i should knwo about?
How is Nissan about their warranties, do they always blame the driver for problems?

 

Im in houston too, looking for a Z too!!!

 

I have found that it depends on the dealer you go to, you'd be surprised at the difference you'll see between dealers.

 

Did you study the reliability information that I posted above?

 

I didn't think so. Thanks for wasting my time. Add to ignore list.

 

thanks for postin the info davidv. that helps me out a lot. i couldn't decide what year/model to go with. i think i'll go with an '05 or '06 enthusiast.
