New Z owner here!!
Well, I wanted to buy a Corvette, and I ended up with a 350Z! 
It's an '03 base car with 81k! I got a really good deal on it! I was lurker on the Corvette forum and I joined here also because I've always liked the Nissan Zs! I was really focused on the Vette, so I'm kinda lost with this Z. I'm gonna need some good, solid advice from you all! I'll post some pics when I get a chance!

Well, I have a couple of crappy iPhone pics to show! I'm gonna say that my Z may be an enthusiast and not a base car because it has cruise control, TCS, auto dimming rearview mirror, & HIDs...
I'm going to try to find out what it is.
These are BEFORE pics! I'm getting the windows tinted in the am and I've got pm's in for wheel pricing!

Thanks! I gave $9k for it. I thought that was a pretty good deal. It was the least expensive one I found with a clean carfax(which I know doesn't mean a whole bunch...I have a friend who wrecked her car and it has a clean carfax! 
), and less than 100k mi. It's got a little over 81k, which I don't mind because it looks like it was pretty well maintained. It's not perfect, as evidenced by the mediocre wheels and the $635 power steering fluid leak(2 frickin' boots and they want 6 bills to fix that!), but I'm starting to really get into the idea of doing my own thing with it!
