Default Having thoughts of buying a 350z

Hello boys! So basically I'm thinking of buying a 350z. My question is: Is it worth buying a car from -07 or -08 for about 15-16k euro or a -04 with almost the same amount of Miles driven for about 12k euros? Whats the difference, pros and cons?

Better transmission and engine. About 25 more hp and higher redline. Close in performance to a 370z.

'o6 has the same upgraded trans, and most of the goodies as the HR (bigger base brakes speed sensitive steering, 7k redline) '05 anniversary or 06 Manuals have these, its a lot cheaper and has a lot of the new features.

budget

The DE was a very strong motor. Too many nubs are regurgitating opinions they've read as facts.

Obviously he has the money to get the hr so it's not about budget. But sure get the de and play catch up. My hr with bolt ons is close to 300whp with out a tune.
