LOL. We have new members finding 2003 and 2004 350Zs with 30,000 miles. They are beautiful cars.

 

I picked up my 04 last summer with 13 000 miles Loaded

 

imo, the difference really is night and day. you can easily feel the difference when driving the 2.

i had a little run in with an 05 at a stop light (no other cars on that road at the time). both of us complimented each other on our cars, i asked him what year his was and if he had anything done to it (it was stock, so is mine), and then light turned green. both of us took off normally so i didn't think anything was gonna happen, so i shifted into second at about 10-15 mph (he was still in first). as soon as i shifted he nailed it, so i followed (me still in second and him in first). as soon as a floored it, he stopped pulling on me, and as by the time i was at about 4.5k i was pulling on him, and by the end of second i was about a fender ahead. He had the advantage of being in a lower gear, and i still beat him with relative ease.

that imo is a night and day difference

if you decide to stay stock, the hr is FTW, if you decide to do bolton's, the hr is FTW (A.H on this forum has 318whp through an auto with just bolton's and a tune, Z1 Performance has a fully built na 6 spd na z, and its 320whp). if you decide to do stock block turbo, than hr is FTW (there are people making 500+ whp with just a bolt on tt kit and a reflash). if you decide to build a crazy turbo monster, built engine 800+whp, etc etc, imo, the de FTW. there is much more development on it in that area and its been done by a few people already. unless you wanna be the guinea pig for developing that kind of power for an hr...

 

I went from a civic to a 07 z its amazing HR for life ftw

 

What are the recalls for the 08?

 

Which did you choose?

 

What recalls? i thought 07's had all the problems. I haven't had no problems on my 08.

 

Well after shopping for 19 months maybe the 350Z is not for you.

 

I shopped for a year and a half... It was a matter of getting the best deal. Ended up paying 18500 for my 07 and it only had 150 miles on it.

 

^^^

you sir are the man

 

Omg 150 miles on it no way you got some dealing skills I thought my deal was great but you set the bar

 

I had an 03 and now an 07... huge difference. If you can afford it go HR. Test drive both however, if you can afford HR as stated go with it, if you decide it's not worth the extra $... go 05 for sure low miles etc.

 

Seriously, though? Craigslist FTW.

Plus, I know a guy.

 

What problems? Other than the clutch cylinder recall, what else was there?

 

what recalls?

edit: should of read this second page, by the responses im assuming there are no 08 recalls.

 

the difference between the 06's- // 07+ is a big one Imo.

my buddy has the 06 rev up model i bought an 08 base, we both driven eachothers cars a bunch of times and we both agree there is a big difference. Im not saying a 10000$ difference if you find a good deal on a used older model, but performance wise you can tell a big difference.

 

Ive only had my 08 about a month, but I was at the dealer and was in the same spot ... they had an 08 base and a nismo and an 06, . I drove drove all three. The differance was HUGE.... the 06 had nothing on the either 08. The 08 just feels like a better car over all.. power, handeling all of hands down HR, and there was only a 3,000 price differance ... all said and done I got the 08 cheaper than the 06..so find the deal on the 07/08.

 

Um if he hasn't gotten the z by now i don't think he is getting one...old thread.
