Why are there so many very low mileage Zs for sale?
 
I recently purchased a 2011 370Z black cherry coupe with 4200 miles on it. While I was shopping for a Z I looked at many, all with low miles. I can't understand why so many people would buy a car like this and not keep it, at least for a couple of years. Am I missing something? All I can find wrong with it are the blind spots ( which are easy to get used to using mirrors and the center console door opening by me resting my arm on it).

Some people buy the newest thing and then move on.....I may sell mine for an upgrade (thinking about it) and it only has 5,4xx miles on it.

For many folks, the Z is a pleasure car and you will see low mileage variants for sale as people look for change (fun cars flipped every 3 years, people do that) or realize its money they want to do something else with and unload the toy.

Lots of happy slightly used Z owners out there :D

:iagree: Plus in many cases, the Z is a weekend or non-DD vehicle.

Or like many people and realized this big sports car could barely fix anything as cargo space :happydance:

Though it's sad that even my 240sx has like 3x the cargo space than my Z...or even the old 280zx I use to own that has like 2x the cargo space.

lol I didn't buy a sports car for cargo space.

I think for many its because they only drive it weekends, so it sits and priorities change or they upgrade again lol

My Z is my Daily Driver, I'd only sell if I couldn't manage it anymore as the wife is giving birth really soon. Fighting to keep it though lol.

Cargo space... NVH... shado vwhy do they do it????????

I, myself own 3 cars. All nissans, thank you. Lol. My Z I drive on weekends and once in the week. Well right now I'm breaking mine in so I been driving it a lot more till I hit 1200miles. But once I'm there. That's the schedule.

Any car like this, it happens. Hell, even Miatas - and you know it's not because of the doors.

Some get it and simply don't like it as much they thought they would unlike some of us here and just move on.
