After a long search I can finally say that I am a proud 350z owner. It came from a good home and was babied/maintained well all its life. The seller was simply moving onto another great project and I was lucky enough to buy his completed one. I actually found it on here too. All she needs is a set of wheels in the future.

She's a 2004 and I love it already. I know, I know: Keep the shiny side up.







I apologize for the dirty interior (it was a long drive and I was excited to snap pictures).

 

Looks clean and simple. Maybe a set of TE-37 and you are set.

 

That's a good looking z you bought.

Congratulations on a really tidy looking purchase, you're right it does look like it's been babied. I really like the silver Z vents from the dash to the door. The frosted leather seats look really trick as well. Look after her.

 

Thanks guys. I've saved for a long time to be able to afford one (made up my mind a long time ago). And yes the Akebonos are amazing! Never felt braking like that in my life.

She will continue to be babied and taken care of. I'm a very proud and protective new owner

 

Time to get rimmed up...

 

I have to recoup some money first. A set of Volks or Work wheels are in the future however

 

Wow I like that hood a lot seeing it paint matched

 

Man, the previous owner must have only parted wheels before he sold it! You got hooked up on Akebonos(can't believe them 17s fit around the Akebonos), paint matched kit/hood, 06+ tails and possibly headlights(might also be Depo) Do I see a sub in a custom box in teh trunk too? I could be wrong, but still you came up.......... provided you got her for a good price? How many miles?

I will support the motion to get wheels STAT....but a shorty antenna would be a great first personal mod

Welcome to the forum and GET HER IN THE GARAGE!!!!

 

I love it too! Great to hear it from the owner of one of my favorite Zs

The 18" Tourings clear it by a little more than a centimeter. Previous owner had Black Volk GTSs on it, but in order to afford it, I had to purchase her without them. You are correct in what you saw 2 10" subs and 06+ headlights. She is now sitting warm and safe in the garage for the winter!

Other things that can't be seen:
Billstein PSS Coilovers
Hotchkis Sways
Nismo S Tune with Titanium Y Pipe
Popcharger and 5/16" Spacer
and then of course the V2 front bumper with INGS sides and rear

paid 12.5 for the car and she has 87,000 original owner. Higher mileage, but I couldn't pass up the deal and it was taken care of.

 

Mileage ain't a thing on these cars....152k on my wife's 03 G and never done a thing beside oil changes and spark plugs....Very nice Z....that kit was installed very well.

 

You really got hooked up.....They about had to be a member on here? Or does anyone recognize this Z?

I don't think you got too bad of a deal. Watch out for the 3rd gear synchro loss.. Enjoy her when you can.......can't wait to be rid of winter!

^^That's correct. And I can't thank the previous owner enough for using quality parts and maintaining her. I always will be worried about the synchros, but I am trying to have some emergency money set aside just incase. I wanted to buy a Z that was done right to eliminate future spending (college student - Z bought with my own money however...not a spoiled brat).

Thanks everyone and I can't wait for winter to end.

 

You got an amazing deal.

 

If you would've gotten it for asking price you would have basically gotten the wheels for $1500

 

Yes, but sadly I didn't have the money at the time. As of now, I have $200 to my name. I could've taken the risk and waited until the end of the summer to inquire about the car (I would have had the money at that point), but I'm pretty sure it would have sold by then. I still think it was an excellent deal and I am willing to drive with some stock wheels for a little bit. It's still new and I will enjoy it as it is for a little bit! (Until I can afford wheels)

 

Can anyone link me to the akebono kit he has that fits on 18" touring wheels? I have the not-so-common chrome ones that look nothing like the ones OP has. (5 spoke with nissan symbol in the middle, never seen the style in anything but chrome)

Thanks and i hope this doesn't come off as a thread hijack just an iquery

Great looking Z, love the hood!

 

Thanks, the hood grew on me as well!
