( Click to show/hide )
Brief write up on the Z:

2010 Sport Touring, Manual transmission, Black Cherry. ~86,000 miles. Five trips to ZDAYZ will add some miles, but it has been driven. I am the only owner, and it has been serviced at Brown's Nissan. They are familiar with the car. In true disclosure, it has been driven on the track (without incident). Clean CarFax can be provided.

Tastefully upgraded:
KW V3 Suspension
SPL Toe kits front and rear
Z1 34-row oil cooler
Z1 Power Plenum Upgrade
UpRev License cable with a Z1 designed tune
Takeda Cold Air Intake
NISMO (off a 2013 NISMO) CBE
Short throw shifter
PTuning license plate relocation kit and camera mount
Powder coated Rays wheels
Comes with a spare Black Cherry bumper


Looking to get around $19,000 for it.

( Click to show/hide )
I will also have some extra parts for sale:
A set of Ray's factory wheels and tires (with TPMS)
Jim Wolfe Pop Chargers
Z1 MAF tubes
That's about the price of a good used mini van eh?
Seriously. Hope you have fun in the new direction.

I ordered a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk so we can go off-roading with a reliable DD. I guess I just needed a change. Maybe I'll have another Sports car in a few years. Should be fun!

Yea, I didn't really see it coming until after my Achilles surgery either. Since I have not been able to drive the Z since mid-August, and I bought a winter beater (automatic 1998 Jeep Cherokee limited), I've enjoyed driving an SUV again. It has to many miles (353,000) for me to trust it for back country trails, so I want to get something more reliable and capable. Google "Trailhawk" and "Moab" to see how capable it is. It is impressive. The one I've ordered looks like the one below.

I know how capable they are. It's a love-hate styling, but I kinda like them.

Man, that had to be a little crushing with the heel surgery...

Yea, I probably need to re-evaluate my pricing, but my 86k miles hurts me a little bit. I'll post the car on this forum and several on-line sources as well. I hope to give it a good home.

I wasn't going to say anything, by I think 19k is...extremely optimistic for that. I'd probably look closer to 15-16. Your car though!

As a tow vehicle? Turning the Z06 into a track beast?

Those trucks do look pretty good.

So the Hummer wasn't too far off.

I still have my 4WD truck. A 2002 Dodge Dakota with the 4.7L V8. I need to replace the xfer case but it's still fun. Only 140,000 on it. I had it out in the Utah back country trails in Canyon Lands. Fun stuff. I don't go rock crawling but hey... still fun.

It's all about . I was originally thinking of a Rubicon before I bought the Z.
