Default Which Z Would You Buy?

Hi All,

New to the forum and new to Z cars in general. Going to be picking up a new summer toy in a couple of weeks but i need some advice.
I have two cars I am looking at, and l'd figured this would be the best place to hopefully find the answers to help me make my decision.

The 2 cars I'm considering are 350Z roadsters. One is a 2005 with the Grand Touring package, the other a 2006 base.

Both have 6M, no Nav. Same mileage, same price. Both one owners.

If you had to choose between the two, which would you choose and why?

Kinda looking for a pro/cons of both to help me decide.

Thanks for all the help

What is the mileage on both vehicles? Were either of them modified?

You left out way too many variables to get a decent answer.

Are you intending to modify the car or leave it stock?

I would stay away from 06 revup could be oil consumption. if you have extra cash get an HR.

^ Exactly why an 05 would be better in this case. An HR is definitely worth it if you have the extra cash

^ Exactly. But with any car it's all the same. Make sure it's got a clean title, and no major problems like engine or tranny. A lot of people try to sell their Z when the synchros go or the clutch...
