Wirral Newbie Hoping to Buy a 350Z, UK or Import?


Recommended Posts

Hello all. 

 

Always loved the 350Z but never really considered owning one. About to buy my own house with a garage, so I'll have space for a toy on the drive or garage finally! :) Been doing some reading, and from what I gather the engine is fairly reliable which has made me want one, I've wrongly assumed they'd be unreliable, not sure why. Finding out they are generally reliable is a nice surprise.

 

From what I've read I'm looking for 06/07 onwards, and I'd really like the orangey/bronzey colour, had quite a few a models and toy ones as a child and loved them! I'd consider a convertible, but I'm also considering light track use so a coupe is probably the better option. Is the sound track good? Only ever owned 4 cylinder cars, so I'd love some 6 cylinder noise! :throb:

 

From what I gather it's the GT UK spec that had the Brembos, which I'd want. Does anyone know much about the JDM ones, as I'd consider importing one, especially if it's likely to have less rust. Definitely going to do some digging through the forum anyway and research myself. Be good to know of any good specialists in the Merseyside and surrounding areas too. Happy to travel further for a good specialist though.

 

Genuinely excited about buying one! Will have to wait until the purchase of my new house is complete as I can't have any extra expenditure at the minute or I might not get my mortgage. :wacko: But once that's done! Need a toy to go in my new garage. :D

Would appear the colour I was referring to is Sunset Orange. Looking at importing one now, plenty available in Japan, low mileage and cheaper VED once it gets here compared to a later UK car. Have spoken to BHP Imports so hoping a well specced Sunset Orange Z pops up in my budget.
