Default what would you guys consider high millage? im about to buy my first Z

Im in new zealand so we get them straight from Japan being next door. we run in kph not miles. so im looking at a 2003 with 68k kms or a 2005 with 102k kms.

what would you do? i know 05 has a newer stronger engine but the 03 has done allot less millage. im not bothered about the stronger faster engine they both fast enough for now!
any help advice would be great

thanks

The lower the mileage, the better. That's if the Z hasn't been in any accidents. It all depends on how the previous owner(s) maintained the vehicle too.

I say anything below 50,000 miles for a 2003 is a great find. I found mine with just under 45,000 miles, and it was a 1-owner.

Anything below 20,000 miles is an excellent find. Not too many of those though.
