m3sye Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi members I am looking at getting a 350z Convertible and would like your advice on the following car I have seen. http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/ww ... gLetter=53 What I would like some help with is This is obviously a Jap import so is there anything I should be looking out for? and how does the price stand being a Jap import? What would you expect the car to be worth in 2 years? Do you think I could get some money off this car? Also I think these cars look a bit too rounded at the back without some sort of spoiler/lip, can you do an after market fit on convertibles ? I would be looking for a lip spolier, if so where best to get one? Thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinmac Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi there and welcome to the forum. Glad you found your way over here. There are plenty of kits available for the roadster. I am only about 30 mins away so happy to pop round and say hi, there are several owners around here. There is a full guide to the differences between JDM and UK spec on here, no specific problems with them. Its a buyers market at the moment.

m3sye Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi Guy's thanks for all your advice and welcome's What would you specialists advise me going in with (offer wise) Do you think 9500-9750 is fair (certainly seems alot of car for your money) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I would think that would be a good start. And yes, its a hell of a lot of car for the money. Your timing is very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m3sye Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 Struggling to find the difference between UK and Jap on here can anyone point me in the right direction.... Also, is this car know to the website? & would the 11k miles be from new? does this not seem a bit low?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 A couple of links for you. Its a big place at first. viewtopic.php?f=17&t=5091 viewtopic.php?f=17&t=13288 viewtopic.php?f=17&t=12195 The imports are usually low mileage. No special issues with the roadster, just check the hood works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 You can but ask with the offer. As for what it will be worth in two years...... I dread to think. Zeds went into freefall about 6-8 months ago and have dropped HUGE chunks off there value. Before that they were in the top 5-10 cars on sale in the UK for holding there value. I would hope the prices will stay where they are..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
