2012 370Z Price & Questions

Despoil0405 · 08-11-2014, 08:37 PM

All,

I'm looking at a 2012 370Z Base Coupe /w Sport Package. The vehicle has 18,000 miles and the dealership is asking for $24,000 before taxes, titles, etc.

This is $3,000 under KBB which seems like a reasonable price. However, the vehicle has had three previous owners.

Owner 1: 12,000 Miles / Owner 2: 3,000 Miles / Owner 3: 3,000 Miles

Should this be a deal breaker? I've considered heading out to the dealership and verifying the vin number matches up on all the panels, doing an inspection and taking it for a test drive. Perhaps I'm just over cautious but I don't want to get burned.

Thanks

I'm currently in the market for a used Z in that same price range. From all of my research, that seems to be a very reasonable price. 3 owners in 18k does seem like a lot but I figured there are a lot of legit reasons to trade this car in such as having a baby.

I don't think you are being over cautious. If you are dropping 24k on a purchase, you want to make sure it's well worth it.

Good luck and let us know how it goes!
