Default Thinking of getting a 350z

Found an Electric blue Z on Craigslist for 6k, 108k miles 2005 CLEAN

Only problems I saw with it are the: front bumper; roof; airbag light

Bumper has a crack, going to get an aftermarket anyways
Roof was keyed and needs repainting
Airbag light is on, but has never deployed

What do you guys think?

take it to a 3rd party mechanic for a full inspection...seems a little low despite the damage, the generation and mileage.

That price doesn't add up, something is wrong with that car that they aren't telling you.

Welcome to the forum. You need someone who has experience with 350Z's because as mentioned by other members, something doesn't ring true. You need to get it thoroughly checked out before you part with any cash.

With all that damage, you're still calling it CLEAN?

I'd call it a project and leave it at that...

That price is way too low. Probably has a branded title.

It should be going for like 8-9k at least.

only a moron would buy that kind of car with 105k miles

if I ever get 350 Z with cash, it will have to be the touring model, and with as low miles as I can find, if not I ain't buying chit, you feel me son? cars are depreciable assets, commodities, they break down, if you're gonna give away your hard earned money for a car, then

time to WAIT and keep saving money and DO IT RIGHT

have patience
