Yeah, I entered a local car show on Germany and that was one of the prizes. Sold it shortly.

Yeah, it was pretty hilarious. Almost none of the cars, including mine, were car show worthy. I was in Spangdahlem for a bit.

The car you are looking at looks like mine in the "before" stage.
Sounds like a decent deal.120k on a Z is not bad especially a one owner.
Many on the road at 200k.The car looks clean.How is the interior?
Clutch?Some of your decision to buy depends on the miles you drive per year.
If it were me,I'd go for it!

Thanks bro. The interior on the driver side is a tad worn looks like from getting in and out because it's only really worn where the left "lip" of the lether on the seat is.. Basically the first and last contact point if you were to get in and out of your Z on the leather seat.. Gear case/stick was nice and tight and smooth in all transitions from 1-6 and reverse was good too from what I experienced. The clutch was a little stiff but i'm used to driving a Civic so maybe it's just me.. I probably drive any where from 100-390 per week it all depends if I ride the van in to base and on the weekends I dont drive my car at all period..

Yeah it rides nice. The rims are tore up from the floor up though.. they are rough so the guy said he would give me the stock set as well and when I get the cash ill probably get new tires for the stocks and rock those until I can afford new rims/tires.. I love those OZ rims but they are too tore up for me the only reason why I plan on keeping them on the Z is because they have brand new tires on them and i'm not sure those tires will fit the stock rims otherwise i'd swap em' now.. But I do like that style rim nothing flashy..

Edit: Also, do you guys put premium octane or regular¿? because i've been doing some reading and it seems like a 50/50 split. Me personally I would rather put premium but I havent had the chance to look in detail at the owners manual during the test drive day yesterday.. I definately don't want to freak somethin up right off the bat.. I'm just not sure what the manual calls for though because I don't own it yet.. (Monday) hopefully.. And I do like the fact that the car will be paid off no payments!

A little bit about myself I was in the USMC for 4 years then was a federal police officer and now I work on helicopters blah blah blah I've always been into cars and ****. I currently have a 2004 Honda Civic that I loved as a teen did some **** to it but it's not cutting it anymore I want something new, well, new to me anyways and I have always wanted a 350z. With that being said I have found one not too far from where I live. It's a 2003 Nissan 350z Touring with 120k on it and a 6 spd.. I know it sounds redic but it's a 1 owner car clean carfax rides fine no leaks (I had it like all day and checked it all out). My car is a 2004 Honda Civic Ex with 133K on it. I asked for 5,000 for mine which to my surprise they said okay and they were asking 9,900 for the Z and I got him to make the difference that I would pay down to 3,400 plus my trade in.. So total out of pocket for me is 3,400 plus the "5,000" for my car would lead to a grand total of 8,400 for the Z.. What do you guys think? I attached some pics..






damn u got 5000 for your civic thats a real good deal man. I have a different trim of that civic, a 2005 honda civic lx with 84,000 miles. Am trading it in the summer and I am hoping to get 5000, mine has wheels dvd double din, remote start, alarm nd a whole bunch of stuff. Glad to hear we can still get top $ for our cars man. Getting am HR in the summer cant wait been on here for a long time . But yea definitely get that Z, it has high miles but you only drive like 20 miles per day so it should last u awhile.
