Matt3786 Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Hi All, Im looking at getting a 350z Convertible and was wondering if there is anything i should look out for. The 350 im going to look at was imported in 2005 with 1 UK owner and has covered 24,500 miles. Any info on what i should look at would be great. Thanks All!! Quote
Zummertor Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Welcome, welcome, welcome ! Lots of info on here, I'm not aware of anything specific on roadster over general 350z to look for other than the obvious condition of soft top. Quick short list that seems most common: Clicking rear axle, Bose CD skipping. I'm sure others will chip in with links etc. to help as well. Best of luck ! Quote
Matt3786 Posted May 2, 2008 Author Posted May 2, 2008 Thanks for the info, Ive been reading around about the Sat Nav/DVD issue with the JDM models and was wondering what the best replacement is for them as it seems as if you just strip them out? Quote
Ardesco Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 I've been looking at a Kenwood 5220: http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/kenwood ... -6497.html I'm sure others have various ideas on similar offerings Quote
M13KYF Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 and enjoy the forum. plenty of info for you in the JDM Import section Quote
GIXXERUK Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 i think you've missed the roadster weather for this year - it was this morning Quote
stanski Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Hi - nothing different than the tintop Zed I can think of - only issue I had with my ragtop is drivers window did'nt close fully up when the door was shut hence when it rained it dribbled in a bit (well a lot if I am honest!) But thats sorted. Wow the ranks of us roadster owners are begining to swell - thats at least 5 now!! Hope the car works out ok for you? Lets pray for the other sunny day (on the Wales run!) Quote
H5 Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Welcome to the site. JDM section should cover most of it, unless there are Roadster specific questions you have. Quote
martinmac Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Another roadster . Had no problems specific to the roadster and as Stanski says the only one I have heard of is the window not closing completely. Very rare thoiugh. If you get it before the 11th get yourself up to Chester Quote
bronzee Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Check the stitching on the soft top. Otherwise the 2005 of all the years seems to be most trouble free. Quote
