Hi guys,

I'm interested in a Z sports car. Would love a 370 sport but I don't feel like being a slave to payments. The 350 looks like it's more in my range. I found this one on the internet and a few days ago went to check it out...

A used 2008 w/ 4000 miles in Black. From what I can tell this is the base trim but then again I'm not an expert (can someone please lay down the basics of the trims). When my brother and I checked it out we found a few minor dents/ scratches. Not sure how some of them got there with only 4000 miles but they are there. I checked one rims also and there were some curb rashes. I will check the rest next time. Anything else I should check out next time. I plan to test drive it in the next few days. Anything I should keep a look out when I'm on the drive?

I'm 27 and I'm leaving my high school car which is a 2000 V6 Auto Silver Base Camaro. My Camaro is finally falling apart on me at 125,000 miles so I thought it was time for a new car. My Camaro is really basic with roll up windows and manual locks so a new/used 2008 350Z would be far more luxurious even with it's "tacky interior".

What do you guys think I can bargain this car down to? Also, the car has pretty low miles but still, should I be worried? Will it still be under warranty? How is the maintenance for this car.

I plan on using it as my daily driver and as a road trip car from Phoenix AZ to (Cali, Las Vegas, Washington, etc) every now and then. How does the car hold up given these tasks? I'm not much into mods or racing but who knows, maybe I will get into it with this Z I will not be doing crazy mods though. Most likely only air intake, exhaust and rims.

As you can tell I have a lot of questions. I hope to hear your valued input. Can't wait to drive one!

Thanks much,

Mason

 

Dam thats a steal, do it...HR engine, 4k miles..great condition, get it man..

and I don't think the z's interior is "tacky" at all, I love it

 

Great price on that. It is just about a new Z.

And it is a base model.

Good luck on the purchase.

 

Welcome. You kind of got it backwards. I recommend that you study the different models. Decide which best suits your needs then go shopping.

 

That's a REALLY good price....21k for an '08 with 4k miles???

 

Keep in mind, it is a base trim but thats one hell of a price for the mileage.

 

i like it looks clean if base suits u go for it but if u into leather see what u can get for the touring packages

 

Hi,

Base was not my first choice. The sport version was (forgot the term the trim is called). From what I can tell that trim includes cruise control, limited slip differential and maybe the spoiler. The cruise control would be nice but not necessary. If I would like a spoiler in the future I can add one easily correct? The one that I'm in question of this the limited slip differential. Would this enhance the driving experience or could I live without it? There are some curvy roads I plan taking road trips on here in AZ.

I live in Phoenix and it can get very Hot, leather seats is a no go here and I don't need navigation. Does the touring trim bring anything else to the table besides these two? Thanks for the help so far.

its a really good price, and i also like the interior. a limited slip isnt a Must have but it is good to have.. i needed one because i track my car from time to time and i just also purchased an 08 350z base model 6 speed manual and i love the car overall. im guessing you can bargain it down to 20,000? hopefully i helped out a little. good luck if you have anymore questions feel free to pm me and i will do my best to help out

 

Moved...

 

Limited slip differential is a must. The most common post for Base owners is “Can I add LSD to my Base?”

I suggest you read this thread prior to shopping further. that should answer any questions you may have, including trim options

 

Did you find a 350Z within your budget?
