Default Price check please?

Hi guys i'm new to the forums and READY to buy a brand spanking used 350z

Im trying to get a couple of opinions such as from experts like yourselves

First we have a 2004 350z 30k miles basic black really nice 6spd guy wants $19,995

Second we have an 04 6spd LE MANS (my favorite color) enthusiast with 53,703 miles but he wants 21,995

Now, If they are both 04's I don't see how more miles on the enthusiast can make a 1000 dollar difference? Both are prices without the TTL Would anyone mind explaining what the enthusiast package includes? And why it is/isn't better?

Can anybody tell me how I should go about doing this? Or should I just keep looking?

My preffered budget is around 19k - 20k tops.

Advice please?

Thanks in advance

a. Determine what model best suits your needs.
b. Shop by mileage not model year. In other words a 2003 with 30,000 milers is a better idea than a 2004 with 60,000 miles.

Just for kicks, let me tell you how much of a rip off my city is.

There's a no name dealership selling an 03 basic 6spd silver 350z with 89k miles for 21,995

There's no hope for me

Those prices are ridiculous, keep looking around, or buy one on the boards.

These prices are way too much.

as a gauge I bought my 04.5 with 17k on it, including basic bolt on mods, for 20k.
