Default 2005 350z Base

The price seems a bit high, but I have $2k to put down, so I'm sure they can work on the price a bit. The thing that concerns me is, the dealer has some pretty bad reviews about keeping their word with their 3 month/3k warranties. The car is carfax guaranteed though, so would I be pretty safe buying this car? I'm going to look at it on Monday, I'll update how everything went after I test drive it and talk with the salsemen.

2005 Base model
70k miles

Price is to high for a Base Z keep lookin, you do know what the Base Z consists of right??? No LSD and No cruise control, you need an enthusiast model or higher

Price seems fair. The car looks to be in good condition. If you can hassle them down a bit on the price, great.

Thanks for the reply. How do you guys feel about the terrible dealer reviews though? Should that be something to stay away from?

If the Base suits your needs offer $12,600. No more. BTW you will need $2,520 down.

Well that's good to know, alot of people come in here not knowing a damn thing about any of the models. I myself have a Base Z but I can live without cruise control and I have a quiafe LSD installed which is an awesome mod to do if you decide to get it,.

That is a ripoff, you can get a better trim at around the same price because the miles on the car is too high for that price. And stay away from 2005 and under on base model, you don't get Xenon lights. Please don't come back if you buy that car at that price.
