Default looking into finally buying a Z!

I'm looking into finally buying a Z!

I'm looking at a 2007 base model. I noticed it doesn't have cruise control.
Is that normal in that model year? Other than that, it looks like a really
nice Z!

yep, just read it on Edmunds. Thank You very much. Is this a good model to
get, or should I hold out for a higher model? This one only has 5k miles.
Super low. Guy just doesn't have the time to drive it.

Is it possible to install the cruise control on it later?
I kind of like having it. it keeps me out of tickets. But its
not a must either.

I guess what I'm asking is if all the wiring is there for it? I can add the rest.

Thanks again!!!

Sorry davidv,

I will have pictures Saturday or Sunday and post them up.
Just found out the cruise control is controlled from the computer.
So that would make it more difficult to add it.
Not a really big deal. I don't think I will find one in better shape for
the year and miles. It still has the new car smell

Thanks BoomerZ33, I will have them up this weekend for sure!

only other thing is the base doesn't have a lsd, now you have to make the call if you need/want the stock lsd or upgrade later on.

Besides the cruise control, every factory option like bose, leather, and lsd can be added on the base for cheaper and better quality than oem. So don't sweat the small stuff and just make sure it hasnt been in a wreck or damaged beforehand.

I've decided to upgrade later on. Not a big deal for now.

I've decided to get it. But I'll be checking under and all over to make sure
there aren't any signs of a wreck. Carfax is clean.

Thanks for your replies!

I'm still waiting to get me check. Thought it would have been here by now.
So I guess it will be here Monday or Tuesday.
I took a trip to check the Z out to make sure it was what he said it was.
It was! Felt like I was sitting in a new car on the lot! here are some
pictures I have. So now hopefully I will have it Wednesday or Friday.
It will probably be Friday.
