I think I may have gotten the cheapest 370Z ever sold.

Behold my beautiful car which I never thought I’d own within the next fifteen years:


My price range was under $6,000 and I was expecting to get a 350z that had been abused and had high mileage and a lot of stuff wrong in general. Instead I found this beautiful thing just four hours away. I thought the price had to be wrong or that it was a down payment from a dealership.

To my surprise, the guy just wanted the car gone. He had it listed at $6,500 but lowered it to $5,500 cash. I figured it had to be stolen, or a roller ( which for a roller was still a good deal overall).

Nope. Clean title, just under 100k miles, overall in good shape save a few dings and a dent. She is a base model from 09 that needed a bit of work, but nothing too serious. So I did what any person who’s crazy enough to take an eight hour road trip to another state does, and I loaded up with my guy and his parents and we brought the beast back home on a uhaul. Even with the car fax I was still about 80% sure the car was stolen and hadn’t been reported, but now I have a clean title to the thing in my name. I really couldn’t be happier. She makes me smile constantly.

Can anyone else beat my price of $5,500 for a clean title 370z?

Congrats on the great deal! Ill buy it off you for 6k cash? :driving:

Nicely done! The rear wheels appear to be way out of spec on the offset.

I'd a snatched that up in a heartbeat ! Nice score congrats !

:eek: did you check the trunk? with a UV light? for evidence of the body that had to have been in there?

just get a good detailing before you check, at least you'll have the benefit of doubt

Trunk is too small for a grocery trip, so I don’t guess a body would fit there. The car smells a bit like weed without air fresheners so if it WAS anything illegal I’d guess it was that.


Also never selling. It’ll have to get wrapped around a tree and be irrepairable

Though I haven’t determined the exact issue, has a slight stumble when first started; but quickly smooths out...cel was initially on with cylinder #2 misfire detection...but really runs smooth.
Still sitting until garage is built..after sales tax it was $5250 :tiphat:

Omg nice. I like yours better, keeping a black car clean is a full time job.

hrtbrknprince 09-24-2019 04:37 PM

Seeing these prices makes me feel like I got robbed lol

GothamZ 10-03-2019 10:26 AM

Thats pretty crazy. Congrats on the good deal you got. Its tough to find 350's in that price range that arent beat to hell and back with a billion miles. You did good!

gbrettin 10-08-2019 08:54 AM

Well, this confirms why I don't care about doing crazy modifications to my Z. Value dropped out the bottom and splattered on the floor.

this is why i didnt sell my Z to get the GTR. the Z became worthless in 2013 when the price dropped to 29,999 for a base.

worth much more to keep it than sell it. plus mine still has some value having every option/package and in the blue they only used for 4 years.

touche.

however, if we are talking about stealing a Z based on price paid i still think i'm way up on the list but i still dont think i ever told you guys what i actually paid lol

370zBoyz 10-24-2019 02:21 PM

i don't like the look of those wheels

why do people put on ugly wheels on these Z cars that look like they belong on a Chrysler 300 or Escalade?

you're missing the point of the thread. OP got the car he wanted for under his stated budget. wheels can be swapped out.

and who are you to decide what looks good or ugly? if you hate the looks of them so much, then buy the man a new set.

OP, congrats and enjoy the ride!
