Default WTB: NISMO under 50k miles

Hello guys. I recently had my 2007 silver alloy enthusiast totaled and I am thinking about a NISMO as a replacement.

I tossed around the idea of an RX7, but too much of a maintenance headache. I looked at Z4 M coupes, but costs too much in the end (BMW maintenance out of warranty is a killer). I've tossed around the thought of a 370Z, but I keep coming back to the NISMO 350Z.

I want to purchase one stock or very close to it with less than 60,000 miles. I really want white. I am open to silver and red, but it has to be a great deal. I am in Houston, Texas, but am willing to travel up to 600 miles to get a car.

I'm looking to spend in the mid-20's

G'luck!

Too bad Black is the one color of the four I would not consider, but thanks for the info.

I had a dark blue Lexus IS350 that looked like it'd been through hell and back after four years of daily driving to work and school. Dark cars are just too hard to take care of unless you have a garage.

I also should point out that I'm not in a huge rush. I've borrowed my dad's car, so until he asks for it back I'm just looking for the perfect NISMO to replace my perfect Z (that is now totaled...dammit).

This one is in Austin, TX, and isn't a bad deal, $26,950 for 22k miles. I might have to go look at it.

Problem is, at that price I might as well start looking for a 370 or an M coupe again.

That's good mileage for a good price. Adding it to the list. I really like red, but it makes it such a "loud" car. I'm really leaning towards white, but there aren't many out there. Are they the rarest?

I like the look, but after having a midnight blue pearl IS350 I will never own a dark car again. They are just too hard to take care of. Shows every nick and scratch, and all it takes is a little dust to make your car look dirty and leave ever lasting swirl marks.

Good luck selling yours though. If I come around to the "dark" side of things I'll look into it.

Red Nismo's are pretty rare! I have no love for the Nagaro red nismo's! That is pretty loud. The Redline Nismo takes the Cake IMHO. They are hard to find tho.

So you say you have no love for red Nismos, but they take the cake. Which one is it? Since you've got a red one, I'm going to guess you meant you have love for red.

I really like red. I just don't know If I could do it everyday. Never had a red car before.

Also, what from I've seen red and black are the most common, with silver in a close third, but white is way back there as far as production numbers.
