I'm in the process of getting a new car. I test drove a manual 07 Z with 13500 miles in perfect condition. It's a base model with no extras. After negotiating, the lowest they have offered me is 20800. Is this a good price? I haven't seen anything close to this price, especially for a 2007 with such low miles. I don't want to sit on it and have it disappear on me. Help..

 

what trim? I bought my base 08 for 24.5k right before the tank of the market. Im sure you could find a brand new left over 08 for even less.

 

The trim is labelled as "G"... what does that mean?

 

There is no such thing as a "G" trim level. In your searches you need help figuring out trim levels, this should help: http://www.3 5 0 z-tech.com/zwiki/350Z. (Just remove the spaces inside the 350z)

I would think that in the NYC/Philadelphia metro areas there are plenty for sale so you should be able to find an '07 with at least some options for that price.

 

G probly mean grand touring

 

hmmmm now this has me questioning the 06 that im in the process of getting. mines the enthusiast with the leather and all it has 30k miles. i walking out for 20k even including taxes? is this reasonable.?

 

maybe im not searching hard enough but ive been searching online all the nissan dealerships here on long island and yes ive seen quite a few z's but not the way i want it. i want the enthusiast in black or titanium with 6 speed. automatic is not an option.

 

Thats not a bad deal for OTD. I paid a little more for my '06 Grand Tourning with 16k miles back in December. Have you looked in our private classifieds? There are some good deals there.

Spoken like a man!

 

another "i just paid 20 grand for a Z with no cruise control" thread i'd pay an extra 1-2 grand for one with LSD and cruise control. thats not a good deal for 21k

 

if you want a carfax i can get one for you, just tell me the vin#

 

Welcome. Is the Base your first choice?

 

The 350Z does not have trims. It has models. How about learning the different models before shopping.

 

op is looking at buying an '07.............
no more non-cruise, non vdc, xennon's etc............ all z33's 07 and up will have those.....

not a bad deal on an '07. not a great one, but not a bad one. if you really like it pull the trigger. but, if i were in your shoes, knowing the market and all, i'd beat the dealership up some more and get a better price. there's probobly at least a 1,500-2,500 more room there..... see if the dealer will give you an inventory list. this will show how long the z's been on there lot. if it's over 30 day's, they'll be more motivated (willing) to lower the price...

 

LOL

 

I believe that is what he is referring to when he said the trim was 'G'. That sticker came off a car on this ebay add which appears to be a base model.

20K seems very high to me for an 07 base. I paid $29k for my '08 Nismo with only 800 miles on it about 1.5 months ago. If I was to settle for a used 07 base, I would have expected something in the 17-18K range.

 

Thanks.

G41 is magnetic black.

Believe this is interior trim:

G - charcoal
K - frost

 

I went back today to negotiate and the car was sold for 20800, the price they offered me. After doing research I have come to realize that this wasn't the best of deals, although it wasn't bad as the car was in perfect shape inside and out, so I am not too upset. I went to another dealer and test drove an 05 with 27k, touring 6 speed, and they wanted 20k. After talking to a salesman I calculated that it wouldn't cost too much more to finance a new base 370 (05 is a little too old). The salesman said he could find me one for 30k. I also did additional research and found out that travelling out of my area (North Jersey, right outside NYC), new base Zs can be purchased for 28,800 to 29,500k. When the dealer contacts me tomorrow I am going to see if the 30k is negotiable and I am going to show him the internet ads for these 28-29k Zs. Hopefully something will come of this, as financing a new car will provide me with a lower interest rate and a comparable monthly payment to a used Z in the low 20k range.

 

you should have bought the car and enjoyed it instead of asking people on the internet.

 

Be patient and shop around, work on your negotiating skills, edmunds.com has a couple of good articles on that and it gives you an idea on what they are selling for. Figure out what payment your comfortable with and stick to your guns and don't let the salesman decide what your payment is. You'll enjoy the car a whole lot more when your payment is where you want it and it's not a burden on you. Good Luck and take advantage of the current economic situation
