hello I been looking around Z for long time and i think i finally find one but not sure if this is good deal or not. Dealer offer me $10000 for 2004 350z touring auto. it has about 53000 miles on the car and it has some scratch here and there also the interior has some scratch. I would say its good condition. is their anything that i have to check?? i checked carfax it had 3 owners and nothing wrong with that car.Thanks

I wouldn't accept it for free. get a 350z with a MINT interior since thats what you will be seeing most of the time and forget about an auto. in europe they don't even sell automatic 350z. its only avaible in manual and thats a GREAT thing

3 owners in 4 years with 50+k on a sport car almost never a good deal.

I guess you are right. They all prolly beat the heck out of it.

But for 10,000 that is a good price. New parts could be put on it.

+1 I never got a used car but unless its some sort of project and you are re-doing lots of stuff.... I wouldnt want a daily driver to be a 4th owner, in 5 years... Especially a car like that which I think someone either beats up, or treats like gold... THeres a reason they keep passing it around

3 owners in 4 years?

Don't TRUST Carfax!!! That car could have been crashed a hundred times and still shows "perfect" on Carfax.

And automatic?

Get a stick man

+1 to all points

Might be worth waiting a bit longer as 350Z prices likely to take a bit more of a fall with the 370 now on the market and downturns in the economy.

$10000 for the z- multiple owners in the past- scratches- automatic- definite saving for delayed gratification and a nice manual 350z-
