Default Need Help/WTB

Hey everyone, I've been lurking on the Nismo forums for a while now and I'm desperate and need your help.

On September 18th some scumbag stole my 05 touring and totalled it. Since then I've been dealing with my insurance company who just last week told me they were gonna cover it under my comprehensive coverage after "investigating" it for over two months.

Now I've got my eyes set on a Nismo but I'm having a tough time finding a black or white one that's not marked at 30 large from a dealer.
Just last month there were two in the marketplace that I would've jump on in a heartbeat.

I'm in Washington State but I'm willing to go ANYwhere to get one as long as it's in the continental U.S.

I'd like to keep the millage to be about average 12k/year x 3years = <36k

If your thinking about selling or know of someone who might want to sell or know of one for sale in your area, PLEASE let me know.

I'd appreciate ANY help/advice I can get.

Any ideas where they are most likely to pop up?

I'm a softy at heart--here are some search results.

None on ebay right now but here's the completed list with several not sold for $25K--might try contacting those sellers

And on autotrader several for $26K

Fly and drive in December January February? What if you hit snow you are stuck. Maybe this is a better idea in the spring.

Thanks for the help. I'll keep drilling ebay/autotrader/craigslist.
I never knew you could look at not sold items on ebay. Thanks again.

I have a couple more questions you or maybe someone else maybe able to answer.. Is the market for nismos seasonal? I mean are there less for sale during the cooler season. And what would a good deal on a nismo be realistically?

You bring up a good point. I've been looking at my options and depending on where it's at, I'm willing to get it shipped. From the east coast to me the best quote I've gotten was $995 and they're averaging around $1200 on open trasports.

Hmmm if you back track on this very site you'll see a few Nismos for sale at this time. Realistically you can get a Nismo from anywhere between 20-30k even the less hardcore Nismo(370z) can be had below 30k just have to say on the hunt!

Keep the search!
