Selling my 6M for an automatic.

brian0128 · 08-27-2011, 02:27 PM

Anyone know any good deals out there for an automatic Z?

I just listed my 370 in the classifieds since I'll be driving and sitting in alot of traffic. Trying to get 21k for my car and buy a lower mileage automatic before Friday.

Have you think about getting a second car? Get an used small DD and save the miles on yor. You might lose some money on that deal from a Z to a Z....

Wow 370z going for 21k

Plus one on getting a 2-3k beater

I've got a cherokee for a driver but I don't enjoy driving it like I do the Z. I figure if I'm going to have to drive, I might as well enjoy the car and like it. With 55k miles do you think the car is worth more with rash on the rims?

It was my 1/4 miles that convinced you to switch, wasn't it?

You trying to buy one from a forum member or from a dealership or something? I'll be on the look out for you. I know Econ has a pretty nicely modded automatic for sale in NY for $28k. Not sure if you're looking for something modded or stock. Did you want touring? Sport?

Damn bro, you're doing a lot of driving..

Whats the reason for the switch?? Usually its the other way around because manual is the best thing in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

I would think its probably the high mileage, and the resale value, the higher the mileage which equals to wear & tear brings down the value of the car, pretty much hes trying to break even with something else. This may be why, just a guess.

I sold the car this morning to a guy in the Army over at Fort Meade. He says he knew his way around cars and didn't mind that the car would prob need a clutch in the next 6 months. The car getting up in mileage and the manual trans were the reasons I wanted to sell. I sit in stop and go traffic in NYC, Boston and DC quite a bit. I live in Crofton, but work in Arlington, VA but my job keeps me travelling to Boston and NY at least once a week. If it's snowing or raining I drive the Cherokee but if it's nice I like to drive the Z. My clutch most likely had less than 10k miles left due to the miles (and trackdays/quarter mile runs).

Also, I'm going to get an oil cooler installed on a low mileage car due to the car running such high temps on the road this past summer. I also had the clutch stick to the floor multiple times during the 2 trackdays and a few times on the street and that was after changing over to Motul fluid.
