Not feeling it... Other than the color there's nothing I like about it.


Two thumbs down.

Pass.

I only buy a car that is stock. If it's been modded then odds are it's been abused and by those pictures it's rice.

I agree with everybody else, pass on this one.
And like they said, buy stock... HOWEVER there are exceptions to that rule.
I did not buy my Z stock but from talking to the owner and seeing how he took car of the car I could tell I had nothing to worry about.
This is how I bought mine

Try to buy stock;

but if the car is tastefully moded - I.E. non ghetto wheels and genuine or expensive parts - then do it.

For example I wouldn't hesitate to buy a car with nismo exhaust and nismo wheels, or any nismo parts.

Jeremy, welcome to the forum. Are you asking for opinions because you're thinking of buying this car? Or have you just bought it? If you're thinking of buying it then I'd be inclined to pass as the only good part of it is the Daytona blue paintwork. The rest of it doesn't quite look right and I'd be inclined to get rid of those wheels ASAP. But hey its all down to personal choice.

Thanks for the opinions guys! I am buying it yes, just looking for opinions on what I should do with it. I like the paint job, and I got it for a pretty good price, so I'm still going to get it, now I know what I want to do with the Z, I don't mind the wheels, might make em black or something, not a huge concern right away, I'm thinking take the body kit off though for sure.

Why do you say it's been abused?

Default Opinions on this 350z?

Alright so I've posted a similar thread like this before but figured I'd get more replies here. I'm buying this Z and plan to remove that front lip to get the stock bumper back. Not sure how easy that will be, hopefully it's just sitting over top but I'll have to take a look. Now I don't want to reorder stock side skirts so how do you think the Z will look, stock bumper, aftermarket side skirts? They aren't much different from stock ones really, just a little bit meaner looking anyway. I know generally if you put side skirts on you put a mean bumper on too, but I'm working with what I got, and I'm not a huge fan of the bumper. Hopefully it will look creative and not unusual, but hey we'll find out! What do you guys think it will look like? Opinions on this 350z?-f9wvxcw.jpgOpinions on this 350z?-uqg149j.jpg

Leave the kit together until you can afford the things you want. The skirts will look worse by themselves than as the whole kit. Get different wheels first and that should help the look a lot.

Exactly. The kit doesn't look horrible, but the wheels do..

There are so many wheels.. You need to look through threads and figure out what style and budget you want/have...
