Hi,

I came across a good deal on this '08 Q45 and was wondering what I should look at before pulling the plug.

J/K...

Mods, feel free to delete this post after couple days :gapteeth:

Long time member, last time posting was around 2006. I found that myself are going to be a regular member of this wonderful NICOclub again so I'd thought I stop by and say hello to the old friends in this Q45 forum. This time I'm looking to get a 350z Roadster for the wife.

See ya'll around! :banana:

What country was it sold in?

The last Q45 model year in the US was 2006.

As he said there is no 08' Q45. You are either looking at a 06' or this is a M45. Check again and let us know.

Well I am a simple man unlike the big city folks with newer Q's. I just make sure the car has four wheels (With tires) and a drivers door. I can use a milk crate as a seat and as far as the hood goes...Why hide the engine?

I had opportunity to drive a M56 last week. I can tell you that this is an awesome car. Not sure you need more than the M37 (I didn't drive that) but the M56 is soooooooo nice. That thing is a beauty. I hope the drop in value like Q45's did so I can pick one up in 2013-2014 timeframe off lease.

Nope, sorry Jesda, Jeff Leeds, Kevin's 2nd gen Q side-kick. Unfortunately Kevin got booted off here a few years ago for something political or something, don't remember exactly what it was, but seemed trival to me.

But I still have my lowering springs I got from him and he also helped me source my spacers when I got my M45 Sports rims installed. I miss him on this board, would love to see him and some of the 1st Gen biggots go at it. He was by far the smartest guy we had when it came to the 2nd gen, plus he was married to a Japanese lady with in-laws in Japan so could find stuff in Japan and get it shipped here.

He started another board, I tried to get interested in posting there but I didn't keep up with it. I have his PM if your intersted in finding him.

Definitely not Kevin, who take himself much too seriously. KF is an rather awkward blend of espoused liberalism (except when it comes to himself) with Nazi overtones.

He's now turning his M45 Y34 into another snow plow.
