Default buying a used 350z

i have been looking around at various 350z's and i have been finding 2004 models randing from $14,500 to around $15,995

i found one for $15,995 that has 75,221 miles on it, but im not sure about these cars reliability with higher mileage, and since im not an expert i figured that i would ask you guys what you think


any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks in advance

The average car uses 15,000 miles a year. So depending on the year of it calculate the miles used.

Personally, I try and get used cars for under 40k miles. I found an 03' with 25k for 22k a few years back. Keep searching around if you have the time.

If your priority is reliability there are better choices than a high performance sports car.

With reasonable maintenance, most any modern Japanese car should be good for 200-250K.

75K is NOT "high mileage">
