Im thinking of buying this 2003 350z with a 100k miles on it for 11000. I'm a little worried since I've never bought a 350z before. The owner now has Alot of after market parts on it but hasn't done anything to the engine. My concern is this a very good deal? I'm worried since it has 100k miles on it that it's goIng to crap out on me? Should I be worried. And if u think it's a good deal what should I look at when I'm looking at the car? I've never Own a Nissan before so I'm not very familiar with them yet, but I've done alot of research and I'm looking forward to owning one I just want to make sure I make a good first choice. Since my bugent is low right now this 350 coughtbm eye because it has alot of the basic aftermarket mods already done on it so I can start saving for more exapensize mods. Anyway I look forward to your expert advice

 

Way too expensive id say. It sounds like hes charging a lot for the aftermarket parts. What does it have installed? Too many upgrades tells me it may have been driven hard, which isnt good considering the mileage. Depending on the parts Id go 10k or less.

That said, this car can last well beyond 100k. Very reliable, just has its quirks at times.

 

He has Racing spring, ssr exsaust, cold air intake, 19 in stagger, has a carbon fiber center consoul, hid head lights, nismo spoiler, short shifter it's a very pretty car well taken cared of.

 

When redesigning the 350z in the 2000's, Yutaka Katayama, I believe it was made sure engineers pressure tested original VQ to be a true sports car w/ reliability, that was tested to 200k miles on engines. I say this with the chegrin that depending on if he has beaten on it, raced it, etc....these cars will run forever _the FI/No2 blowups, which some of us have been there.
BUT- I have never been one to shy away from high mileage cars. I would offer him less and go with it as a talking point...just my $.02

 

just saying !!!

 

seems a bit high. i wouldnt go over 10k

 

Ya I'm going to offer 9000 and go from there I would post pics but I'm out of town and away from my computer and I'm posting from my phone But here's the posting for the car http://baltimore.craigslist.org/cto/2944075447.html

 

It looks clean, I think 9k is a good starting point for you with the goal of getting him around $9,750

 

go 9k. its gotta lot of rice on the back end

 

I'd just check it out.The price seems in the ballpark...
Who knows,this guy could be like me.All my mods are done correctly.
Nothing was spared to make my car as perfect as it could be.
The car could be a winner.
I sure would dump the decals...ricer/tacky.

 

Thinking of buying does not make you a new owner. Sorry.

 

not a bad deal. i'd buy it and sell all the mods or upgrade to better ones.

 

Thank you all for the advice, I kinda like the decals a little I want to try and take the car to shows so I like things that make it stand out


P.S. thank you David for pointing out my phrasing, I'll be sure not to say owner untill I buy the car. Thanks for your words of wisdom

 

looks nice just dump the decals
