Well, its listed as enthusiast, but it might be a touring, which would be sweet!

Its got bose and leather...but those could of been added maybe.

Someone check that out and let me know what you think/ what model.

 

also would you guys trust the "free carfax" that works off the dealership's website?

 

Free Carfax is fine but Carfax does not tell you all you want to know.

Spend a hundred bucks or so to have a competent mechanic go through it thoroughly. Otherwise your buying a pig in a poke.

If the Z has Bose, it is probably a Touring model. Look to see if it has seat heaters. If, yes, it is a Touring without question.

 

Ok, well it definetly has that. So they are mislead

I think if i can get it for 17-17.5 i will be in good shape. Thanks all.

 

Keep looking, theres an 06 enthusiast with 24K on autotrader in MI for 19,995 soo no more than 17.5 as mentioned for that 03

 

Then let's take two steps back:

Study the model specs so that you can tell the difference before shopping.
If this is a Enthusiasts then forget my replies. They are inappropriate.

 

It has seat heaters.

It's a Touring.

 

Yea, Yea, I know they say be leery of someone (seemily) trying to push something too hard, but I really think someone is going to miss a great opportunity. I have a 2003 Daytona Blue Enthusiast, 6spd 5756 actual/ original miles, it has been garage kept and never driven in any type of weather. It is still covered by the power/drive train warranty until the end of April and could not have been cared for any better. It has never been wrecked or hit and is still show room fresh. It still has the disposable dealer floor mat covers in it which means the mats have never been touched. It was definitely an emotional purchase since I had owned both a 260 and 280 back when I was young. I realize West Palm isn't just down the street from Virginia, but thought you might like to know about it, even though it could add to your dilemma. Paid 29K+ for it (they didn't discount them a nickel back then and I'm asking $19 for it now. There's plenty more to tell if you're interested. loveridge1@comcast.net

 

Well that didnt work out. Went to the dealership today, those people are deusch bags. I hate them.

The search continues.

 

what are the dealer fees? if your talking a doc fee of like 50 dollars thats normal. now if they have a clean up charge or some ******** couple hundred dollar charge i can understand your position.

 

Yeah i wouldnt have a problem with that, but they wanted a $599 fee.

wtf

 

Curious question, did you need financing from them? I know when I went to buy my 350z it was originally 17k ( 03 Touring with 73k excellent condition). We got it down to 17,300 out the door TTL (had blank auto loan check). That price seems like a great deal provided its in excellent shape.

 

Sounds like you are in over your head.
Your opening offer needs to be about 25% under asking price.
I would have started at 15K on the earlier example that you
walked on. I am in Miami and have bought and sold a few 350s.
Expand your search as our local market frankly SUCKS for used
examples. I have found the best vehicles in south/north carolina.
TAKE YOUR TIME.

Well, originally they were asking 22.5, then 19.9. I offered 18.5 out the door, and they didnt take. I walked out, then offered 19.5 and they didnt even want that. I only offered that much (19.5 out the door that is), because i really wanted it. And they STILL didnt take it. So that was rediculous and i forgot about them because they are idiots.

And no, i didnt need financing. I was ready to buy money in hand, no trade in.

BUT it doesnt matter because i just bought a 05 Enthusiast with just over 30k for 19.5 out the door. Carbon silver, awsome shape. Dealership was awsome. So im happy.

 

Sounds like a strong deal. Look forward to seeing you at the sfzcc meets...
