Default First Z

I'm looking to get my first Z. I have been looking around for a while and the biggest thing for me is manual. I have found a 2004 on autotrader for 14k with only 18k miles on it, no mods, and the Carfax checks out. Not sure what model, havent gotten a response from the owner yet, the only options I know it has for sure is leather and navi. It's silver which I can work with.

Is it a good deal on price, or has someone seen something that is a better deal, preferably in the southeast. And yes its a 6mt

that low of miles, it's a good deal. you need to research what 350z models offer, and find one based on your needs/desires mang. dont just be a clueless Z owner. : )

I know a little about the models, just like i said not sure which this is. I do plan on daily driving/ autocrosses is my main uses. I just havent done all my research yet cause i just started looking at 350's having given up on trying to make an rx8 makes sense...

Lots of unknowns here. There is a considerable price difference between the Base and Touring.

Cool. The price looks high because of the miles. For example:

2004, Touring, 18,000 miles, $14,000

2005, Touring, 36,000 miles, $14,000

Offered this choice I would take the 2004.

To davidv,

What about ...

2005, Touring 20,000 miles, $17,000

2007, Touring 40,000 miles, $17,000?

Just wanted to see your opinion.

I believe those prices are VERY good! I do not know how much it dropped since the summer but I bought one in july and never saw those kind of prices.

I got my 2003 with like 59,000 miles for $13,500 its touring with navi.

So I say go look at them and if they are in good shape go for it. I have had no problems with mine so far.

I decided to wait for something with a lower mileage.
