Hello,

My wife and I bought our first 350Z yesterday, and first Nissan at that. Picked up a 2008 base model 6sp with 19,000 miles. It was a garage queen and it is flawless. Only driven on the weekends and never seen rain(supposedly anyway). This will be my daily driver, garage queen it will be no more. Also own a 07 Chevy crew cab 4x4 if I need to haul some stuff.

Other sports cars I've own are a 91 Z28, 4th Gen Camaro, and a 2003 Corvette Z06. My wife always wanted a 350, I was just kind of so so about them, nice looking cars but not to interested in them. Decided to take some for a drive and I was hooked. After I sold my Z06 I was driving my wife's base model Cobalt most of the time since I drive 60 miles a day for work, quite a change. I'd love to have another Z06 but I'm loving the 350Z. Drove a lot of 60-70k mile 350s in our search and then came upon this one with low miles for the price some of them were asking for much higher miles. Granted some of them were the Gran Touring models, but I can live without the bells and whistles for a basically brand new car, in mileage anyway.

Don't have any plans of doing any mods, other than maybe that clear stuff they put on the front to protect from rock chips. I'll get some pictures put up when I can, it was very stormy with hail here today, the Z stayed tucked under the carport.

Anywho, good to be here!

 

welcome. post up some pictures.

 

Welcome to the forum and it must be worth the wait to find a garage queen like that. Enjoy!!!

It is gorgeous and must feel brand new. What a find. Congrats!

 

Welcome......

Awesome looking Z

 

Mind if I ask how much you paid? I've been Z shopping in OKC for a few months now.

 

I paid $20k, financed $17 with my trade in and money down. I looked all over from here in southern Oklahoma down to Dallas and the surrounding areas and I drove 7 350's the day I bought this one. I didn't really want a base car and it was a little more than I wanted to pay, but....

Down around Dallas I drove several Gran Touring cars with 60-80K miles on them, they wanted $18-$19K for those. Another base model with 31,000 on the clock, rough interior were asking $21k. Up here in Okla drove a base model, 72K miles I think, really rough interior, ran a little rough, wanted $14k. As much as I wanted the bells and whistles of the higher end models, I was willing to sacrifice those things for a practically brand new car, and pay a thousand or two extra.

I know Dallas is quite a drive from OKC, I'm kinda in the middle of both of those, but if your interested in looking in Dallas I know where all 350's are for sale right now in that area, are have driven most of them. I was at Courtesy Nissan today and they still had a nice 350.
