:rofl:

ooopss, you got a thing about crashed cars Al!

yup, so much cash to be saved and can still sell on for a bit of a profit

great cars, think that will be next for us when the wife chenges her street ka.

 

sound lovely, 6 speed box is amazing and there are quick, think the 0-60 is about the same as a oem tt zed and will top 155 so there not slow :)

Driving one across Georgia and Alabama next month. I'll let you know. I've been in a few, but not driven one yet. I never use to really have much of an opinion of them. But I'd be quite happy to have one now and have grown to like them. Fit a supercharger and you have a great little car....choice bodymods too....

 

I do have a soft spot for the G35 though.

 

not keen on the g35, if i ever did the body work i would go for a very smooth or minimal look, love the wide arches on them but i aint going to that expence

 

maybe even just the nismo kit

 

gonna stick a cheeky offer i n and see what he says

I am with si on the g35, alot of car for very little money.I have been in a couple of 350zs and they are superb cars,but go on pistonheads or the trader and compare the prices.

I've driven and worked on a couple. Very modern car feel, remind me of a Ford focus but a bit cheap on the inside. Performance is fine, but not as impressive as a Z32.

one of the guys at work has a 350z with a nismo kit on it

 

i think it looks stunning...

 

with out a kit though i think it looks like a training shoe.. but kitted they look great..

 

go well and sound nice too..

ill go for my mates when he sells it

Hi Allan

 

I have driven a couple of 350zs and I think they're a pretty decent car. They are pretty fast in stock format; although not quite as fast as a Z32 TT in a straight line. They corner very well for a powerful RWD and they have grown on me over the years. I hate the convertible though - it feels poorly made and very flimsy.

 

I don't think the Z33 has the same road presence as the Z32 and, whilst much more modern, the "quality feel" is less than that of the Z32. But then a 350z was around £28k new back in 2003 compared to the 300zx costing £34k+ back in 1991........

 

I do think the shape is an acquired taste though - colour really makes a difference so you have to get it right. Black, gun-metal or, at a pinch, silver. If you want a striking look then it has to be that burnt orange/gold - but that's a little too loud for my taste.....

cheers people, will have a word with my mate and see what he thinks of the car and what it entails in repairing

Unless you can get the car for a steal id stay away from crash damaged cars.The bottom has fell out of the salvage market.All the firms around here are right on their arses as nobody is buying them as the purchase price plus the cost to repair works out more than buying a straight one.One of our local salvage companies was trade only and you had to register to buy is now e baying cars in desperation.

luckily i aint paying any repair costs

I like em :)

 

Nice solid feel, like the look of em and all in all a good usable car :cool:

wel its been sold, it was on ebay it was a 54plate sunset orange uk gt 350z, had most parts with it only needed a bonnet and bumper was very light front end damage, one owner from new low mileage £5995

 

anyone off here bought it???
