I think spacers look great. But I've never bothered because I've also thought they must adversely effect the handling? Is there a big difference?

Unpredictable is a bit of a understatement. They try to kill you

They are worth the extra. That's why a dealer will pay more for a low mileage car, because it's worth more and easier to sell. I would agree with you if it was a newer car with motorway miles, but not with daily drivers that are a decade old. I doubt anything needs to "dry out" after 10 years, and any "gremlins" must be good at "hiding". IMHO a 10 year old 350z used regular with high miles is going to need a lot more spending on it than a mint, low mileage equivalent. Look how long some cars sit in the classifieds despite members saying "this is a bargain" etc etc. This car sold to a dealer with no pics quickly. From the description it sounds like the best 350 I've seen in the classifieds. Fine, IMHO they're not worth the extra. Happy now? Some people are mugs and buy cars just because they've got low miles on them. Good luck to them, it's their money. Personally I'm a bit more savvy and realise that modern cars do not suffer with mileage like older ones used to, but each to their own. Replace "some" with "most" and I wouldn't call them mugs. Many modern cars suffer with mileage more than older cars. Ask anyone with a common rail diesel or as you know a 997.1, cayman or boxster. Modern engines are more complex and have more potential to go wrong compared to older ones.

I appreciate that mate. I just think it's Z's like this one that will be worth good money in the future. Average miles for a 10 year old car is 120,000. I wouldn't touch a z with that. I think if were all honest we'd rather have 26,000 miles on our clocks. Mine had its P3 on 27,592. I appreciate the point re the clutch but look what happened to Bradders.

Absolute rubbish. Low miles is worth more. It's a fact not an opinion.

Don't get HFCs if you're not remapping.

The 6 series is San Marino blue and it is a £2k individual option on the new M4. Not cheap Looks stunning in the sun. Estoril blue (e46 m3) is nowhere near as nice and is a colour that should only go on a BMW M car IMO.

If you want a deeper tone the Invidia might be the one to go for. You can still find nismo exhausts in the us new for what they sell for over here used, but they're not a duel system and you will obviously have import costs. I would think a custom exhaust would be difficult to sell in the future compared to the other 2 options.

According to the US forums the Robbins is the best roof. Look forward to seeing pics.

I've never seen exhausts for any other car hold their money like 350z exhausts. E92 M3's definitely don't.

Sad to say but I think many R8 buyers buy for the looks and image alone. The fact they can be really docile to drive probably makes them more appealing. I seen that awful Flanagan girl driving one once. Might be annoying but she's a stunner.

Why did you import? Was it much cheaper?

I'll be interested to see pics. Mine is in good condition but has faded over the years. I'm undecided if I'm keeping mine long term, but if I do I'd like a new roof.

I think R8's will continue to hold their value. There is nothing else like them in their price range. Still a lot of car for the money and will depreciate less than most other cars of the same value. I personally don't like them, but 1M's haven't depreciated at all. They still sell for the same price they did new. E92 values will drop like a stone over the next 18 months as more used m4's come onto the market.

I'm sure I seen this parked near my dads a few weeks back. Looked nice and clean. GLWTS

Bose is much better than what I expected from what I had read previously. Lights aren't very good though.

Worse than any other car I've driven. Not bad enough to spend a small fortune on later ones though.

Nowhere near 50mpg and IMO the BMW 335d or 535d's have better engines and are much better to drive. Audi's have nicer interiors though. Mine might be going this weekend against a f10 530d m sport. Would prefer a 535d but looks like he's offering a decent PX.

Found this. http://www.funkypower.co.uk/catalogue.php?make=NISSAN&model=300ZX%20-%20FAIRLADY&year=&level1=INTERIOR+ACCESSORIES&level2=GEAR+KNOBS&level3=&id_product=4775 Place in Manchester was a bit cheaper if I remember right?

The one you like is the stune nismo knob. It's much cheaper than the other nismos from what I've seen. There is a stockist in Manchester. They come in titanium (which is still not that expensive) and black rubber. I'll see if I can find a link.

I hope they vote yes, but some bookies paid out on no this afternoon.

I would imagine so. There are a few on here who will be able to help you out if not.

I've drove a chipped one. Stupidly quick and had a very nice interior. My mate had one after a e92 m3. He didn't keep it very long though. Relatively cheap to get big power gains.

I've always thought the market was slow for older cars that are relatively cheap to buy but expensive to run and insure. Many buyers with £7k to spend can't really afford to run a Z and most people who can afford to, can afford a newer car.
