Recently i ended up rear ending a taxi that stopped short in the middle of an intersection while driving my 95 camaro. The car got totaled out and now im in the market for a new car. I started looking around and found a very nasty looking black 350z. It unfortunately just wasnt the one for me but now i am hooked on what 350z's have to offer, looks, power, gas mileage, etc. I am a little picky and would prefer a manual, but the car i had been looking at was an auto so thats not a deal breaker (slap sticks are fun lol). But it must be black due to how much i loved driving around my black camaro. In saying this any help and or advice to someone new to the 350z scene is always appreciated. Im just looking for something around 50,000-80,000 miles and right around $11-13,000. i know a lot of nice z's dont normally fit this since i have been looking around for a bit. but with the winter coming up im pretty sure i might delay till spring and wait for one of those z's that people can be realistic about, not some dealership ******** cuz they always throw you for a ride with their pricing. and depending on how much i can save up over the winter may determin if i can go any higher. exterior wise, a few blemishes is no big deal. and im not looking for a riced out 350. i keep it classy and more sleeper like. but i would most likely be doing some engine work in the future

 

OK cool see you later in a 350Z.

 

just shop around, check craigslist and cars.com and local dealers web sites. You will probably have to get a 2003-04. I paid just under 15k for a 2006 with 45k miles but I had to put 500 right into it to replace 2 things. so that kind of gives you an indication on what you should pay. I shopped around for 2 months before i bought mine.

 

yeah im in no hurry, got all winter to shop around since i have a beater vehicle. Probably save up a little more money too but ill see what happens.

 

Good idea. See what happens.

 

I just picked up an 03 with 28k miles. They are very nice cars and so far I'm really liking it.

 

I'm in the market for one too!
At the moment I'm looking at a 03 touring edition with 80,000 miles on it for 11K and i'm going tomorrow to look at it.
Do y'all think thats a fair price?

 

yep
