Good deal? Buying car tomorrow.

NickTurnon · 08-14-2013, 01:31 PM

Price is a bit high.

It looks like it's got an aftermarket sport spoiler ($120). Exhaust (400-600). Window tint + visor.($150) Illuminated Door Sills ($140)

Keyless Start? Viper? - Or did they just mean keyless entry/push button?

Its a manual which is about $1500 less then the auto tranny.

That being said, check out a 2011 in my area with 36k (4k more) on it. for $21k

OH yeah, and that CAI looks like an EBAY intake. $100 or so.

Thanks for all the advice guys, its really beneficial, i really appreciate it.

I went today to see the car in person (3 hour drive!) and the car felt awesome on the road, definitely a step up from my 2009 Camry! My two friends and I looked at everything, we inspected the car as if it was worth a million dollars. Glad i brought them along.

The bad: Glued on LED strips on headlights. 3M taped spoiler (i'll drill it). Some minor scratches (plan to get the whole car wet sanded/buffed the day after buying the car). Cheap CAI (i would replace immediately).

The good: Invidia Gemini catback. Sport spoiler. Flawless interior.

Apparently 24k OTD is the best he could do. I'll wait tomorrow and see if he will budge and call me. If not i'll call in a couple days and tell them that 22.5k OTD is my final number.

I've been looking for a black 370z 6speed for under 25k for 5 months now. And this has been one of the two that has actually met that criteria. I check Autotrader, Cars.com, and Cargurus on a daily basis for anything new. You guys seemed to have gotten awesome deals compared to what has been listed here in South Florida.

Thanks again guys, i'll have updates.

Its the standard, push to start. I didn't know the illuminated door sills were an option, i thought they were standard, it's a pretty cool feature.

If that deal was within 500 miles of me i would be all over it.

It also depends on how much of that OTD price is from the taxable amount. OTD with a trade is different from OTD without.

How come i can't find these deals in florida!? I've been looking for months now, and i can't seem to find any 370z in black for under 25k. I was hoping to get a base/sport but at this point i would even take a base.

One way flights are pretty inexpensive. Especially if it is a $1500 difference for a car that is specific to want you want.

That's what I was thinking. You can fly just about anywhere one way for $500. And if you buy out of state you get the fun of driving your new car back home. And since it's used you don't have to baby because of the breakin period. Winner all the way around.

I was thinking of doing the same thing if I'd have decided to go with the GT500 Shelby. THey're way cheaper in the south than here in Cali. Like $5-10K cheaper. Don't about Z's, whether they're cheaper out of state.

I'd have more than paid for the price of a plane ticket to Texas or Mississippi and gotten to drive it back to Cali. YEa.
