Default New 2003 5AT Touring owner from Brownsburg, IN.

I am really loving this car. Test drove it once, and after that I just couldn't not buy it. Got it $14,7 with 39k miles.





I'll try to get some better pics up tomorrow. Anyways when I bought this car it did have a few light scratches in some areas, but I guess that is to be expected buying an 03? Anyways how much do you think it would be to fix it at a body shop?

Welcome and congratZ on the sexy LMS.

Great to see you haven't wasted anytime detailing her. Looking good.

Any shallow scratches will probably be hidden by; wash/shampoo, clay bar/bug bar, cleaner wax, swirl remover and then wax, will hide a multitude of sins (there's some good tips on the Turbo Wax site). My weapons of choice are: http://www.turbowax.com.

Welcome to the site and may I add an outstanding color selection. Loving the Lemans Sunset. Be sure and check out www.indyzcarclub.com for more Z lovers around Indy. Our first event is coming up on April 4th and is always a great time. There will be a lot of Z knowledge at this event and its dedicated to working on our Z's. I'm sure that we could take a look at the scratches and see if there is anything you can do for them before you resort to the body shop. The club member that's hosting this event does his own paint work and his 280Z is beautiful.

Yep, I love the color. Kinda worried it might be a ticket magnet for cops though!

Cops love all Z's, they're nick named "ticket collectors". Just be smart and you'll be fine.

Don't worry about the color attracting too much unwanted attention, your driving style will decide that. Enjoy the car and its capabilities, but use common sense.
