EVERY RIM had curb rash all the way around!!!
Center Console door was broken (where it would have Nav)
Water collecting under the gas flap door?!?
Trunk Shocks were already blown?!?
Salesman said "Only one dent on the whole car, it's the size of a dime"......going on that the car had a good 2 dollars worth of dents.
Hard Pipe Like Hoses.
Nasty injector tick
The clutch and brakes were damned near gone (judging by the fluid levels)
Still had suction cup marks on the windshield where there was a radar detector (car has been driven)
Shift Light set at 7400rpm
Old speeding tickets still in the glove box (behind the pass seat)
Broken plastic bits in the trunk.......but I couldn't find where they came from

Also they would NOT let me drive it (I had to twist an arm to get a damned key so I could turn it on) I'm sure there was more wrong.

This is just the tip of the iceburg, they wanted way too much interest on it etc.

I know down the line my next car will be a Z33, just not yet.
Sorry to hear... Either way, the money is in your pocket and the ball is in your court, just hold out for the right one. I was thinking the other day while washing my car about how glad I was that I passed over the other ones I looked at. I don't have all the options I initially thought I would but the damn car seems flawless, buying a used car buy on condition and look at as many as possible, on the weekends just book the whole day to look until you find the best one. Good luck!

Welcome to the forum. Keep shopping my friend, that one sounds an absolutely shocker. Have a good look at as many Z's as you can before you settle on one. Like every car they all have their quirks.
