Looking at this Roadster
 
Hey gang, new guy here.

I'm seriously contemplating purchasing this Roadster. 1 owner. The age and mileage has be a bit concerned though. Anything special to watch for besides the obvious top issues? Or any other thoughts?

Thanks

Welcome- on the plus side, the Brickyard color (which this ZR appears to be) is not common. On the negative, I'd check for any service records, and even if it was properly serviced, you'll need to budget for a major service at 100K. If there's no service records get ready to change all fluids, belts, and plugs immediately after purchase.

What are the big costs at 100k? I was looking through the maintenance schedules and didn't see anything TOO bad... I'm probably missing something..

Nissans are not like Porsches or BMWs. Their maintenance needs are quite a bit less. The major service at 100K includes just what I described, but I'd add taking a close look at brakes and shocks, as they may be due for replacement.

Unless the car has been repainted, it is Interlagos Fire. There were no Brickyard Roadsters produced. Brickyard was only offered on the 2003 cars and there were no 2003 Roadsters.

Thanks for the clarification. My original comment stands: Interlagos Fire is a rare color and not very common on ZRs.
