Default 18k for a used '07 6spd?

I am not sure if this link will work, but I hope so:

http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail...eadExists=true

if that above link doesnt work, try this one:

http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp?paId=255471602



In doing a search for a 350z to buy, I came across this new listing.

About This 350Z
Mileage: 7,525
Body Style: Coupe
Exterior Color: Silver Alloy Metalli...
Interior Color: Carbon
Stock #: NP3224
VIN: JN1BZ34D37M502942

Engine: 3.5L V6
Transmission: MANUAL 6SPD
Doors: 2
Wheelbase: 104"

Now, don't laugh, but I assume it might be a touring because one of the photos of the steering wheel shows 6 buttons, 3 on each side of the center. That is indicative of an enthusiast model or above, right?

for a price of 18,700, does that not seem too low?

Even at a base model, I would think its a pretty good deal. I wasn't sure if it was a touring or enthusiast, but as long as it has a LSD, then i'm sold.

I am hoping to hear from the dealer tomorrow.

I know that generally the rule is if it sounds too good to be true...

But, from the description and the pictures, I don't see anything "physically" wrong with the car.

Talking with the dealer might reveal the truth though. I hope they just want to get rid of some inventory.

I noticed those and immediately hoped that the car was previously owned by some spoiled kid who made a few quick "mods" and got bored with the car and traded it in for something else.

or it could have been an abused car.

Won't know until I speak to the dealer directly. I do appreciate all of your opinions though.

Carfax.

At that price, I'd be worried about salvage title.

Some dealerships just sell cars at a real cheap price. I bought a 2006 Mini type-S automatic fully laoded with naviation, 6k miles for 20k OTD for my sister. Sometimes you just get lucky with deals like that. I would hop on it immediately before someone else does.
