Default 2004 350z

Test drove the Z, the gear shift was very noticeably shaking while stopped. When first taking off in gear, the engine sound normal, then it got LOUD and kind of a wup wup wup noise, almost like a loud fan, worth buying or fix going to be terribly expensive?

Could be anything from a crack in the exhaust pipe (inexpensive to repair) to a warped valves (very expensive to repair).
