Default 07 used or 07 new

A 2007 Base model was just listed at Connell Nissan for $26,999 used. The mileage isn't listed but the vin is supplied with only 1 record. Would that be a good price for a used, or should I just go for a new?

MSRP for the base model is $27,900 and you can easily negotiate that down. Why not get a new one?

a grand cheaper for a used car (MSRP VS used) is not a good deal in my book. You gotta wonder why someone got rid of a 30k car in less than 3 months. Surely it wasn't repoed already.

As soon as that 07 left the lot it depcreciated. If you can get them to knock off another $1k or more then it's not a bad deal. But I wouldn't bother unless you can get it for <$2k less than a new one.

I'm pretty sure you're better off shopping around. My dealer was willing to give me a base for 26,710 + TT , but I opted for the Enth.

Good luck

wow how many miles can an 07 have on it to be used? well i guess someone bought it, used it, then returned it. inform us when you find out how many miles are on it. i say ... maybe you should get the used one if it's in perfect condition, cuz chances are, with the used miles, the Z is probably broken in and you don't have to take the time to break in the new Z =P

That can happen with any car, and should always be a concern when buying a used car.

I dont think $1k off for a used 07 is a good deal at all. Anything less then $2k off for a used and its just not worth it to me!
