I bought my 03 last year with 30k on it for 15.9

 

Yes.

 

I bought my 04 2 and half years ago with less than 30k on it for 30,000...And i bought in new york too....

 

Agreed. There are many Zs available for a $12k budget.

 

Ha! I'm actually shopping around for a Z and it's definitely possible. You could get a Z for $10,000 even. It's all about if the previous owner maintained it well, didn't drive like an asshat and has all/most of the service records.

A car with high miles usually never means it's a junker.

If you have connections you can go to car auctions and pick up an 05 for $13,000+ with decent miles aka way below MSRP (I'm currently going to auctions looking at 350Z's and G35 coupes)

people are desperate. Now is the time to get sweet deals!!

 

for real?
i was told not to buy cars from auctions because they sell cars with salvage/flood/rebuilt titles.

 

Ill sell you my 03 Track model with 63k miles for $12k cash right now. Its on autotrader at this link.http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

 

Its also got a plenum spacer and pop charger on it that are not mentioned, and new brembo cross drilled front rotors and 2 bottles of RBF-600 brake fluid that I will throw in with it, as well as one spare front and one spare rear wheel/tire.

 

03/04 with high mileage

 

Yeah, I wouldn't buy anything from an auction...a lot of rentals come through there. Well, a Z wouldn't be a rental, but still. You don't really know the history like you would with a private buyer.

But yeah, OP, it's looking good for you. You'll find one, especially with forum owners willing to sell. That '03 track with mods and 63K sounds real good.

 

Well they tell you exactly what's wrong with it if they don't you can deny the title and get your money back (assuming you buy green lighted cars) red light cars are cars with over 100k miles and you buy as is.

Still, if you got connections and most likely that person works at a dealer you can't go wrong. Just shop smart!

I've seem some e46 BMW M3's go for about $16,000 with clean records and problem free.

 

Bought my '03 Touring 3 a month and a half ago for $12k in MA with 64k and they even patched up my front bumper from small chips and pits from highway driving

 

I am selling a 2005 yellow base model manual with 21k miles... Dropped on black rims... Salvage title though... The car was hit in the front but everything has been fixed and it runs smooth... Everything works...

 

YES! i got a 2005 enth. model from a dealer certified warranty with only 18kmiles on it. for 15000 including tax.

 

I got my '03 with 79k for 11,5...

 

see my sig.

 

Sucker.

 

i got an 03 touring with 30k miles for 16400. Garage kept so i got lucky on it i guess.

 

yes...I know a guy that bought a 05 base model with around 70k for $11k, clean title good condition.

 

its called craigslist.. you'll find plenty in that range.. most likely higher mileage but yeah. heck the other day i saw a 05 base Z sell for $13k..


i bought my 05 350z base model, w/8k miles for $21k 2 years ago..and i thought i had a deal.. but yeah..
