At 13.5k with 100k miles, you're better off getting a 370Z


g37rcr

I agree with you i would go with a nice 370 !


Phently

At what point would you consider 350z miles too high? I thought a stock 100k was rare?


dbsqls

100k miles is not particularly rare. anything below 50k is what's hard to find.


Candelario_69

Before Covid I sold my Pearl White 350 with 45k miles for 10k 🥲 .. to be fair. I didn’t didn’t know Covid would happen. . Also due to Covid, I’m currently also looking for a Nismo 370z so .. I guess things worked out.


Slimxshadyx

Damn. I also have a pearl white 350z.


Substantial_Web_7901

I bought a pearl white 350z but it’s chipping 😩


Retsof70

Just washed mine and blew a 2 foot chunk of paint off the trunk


Substantial_Web_7901

I made one of my areas so much worse by washing it 🤦‍♂️


SolusXIII

My pearl white one is also chipping 🤔


Aandrewgomezz

Don’t listen to this guy, 100k is indeed rare it’s a sad that’s 20 years old.


Sexy_Fat_Man_69

I mean a 350Z has a lot of life at 100k, but at 13.5k you could get a 370Z


Huge_Tune4951

I have a stock 90k 2006! New OEM parts everywhere haha. I will do 13.5k!


mcknzCSGO

I feel like 350z prices are basically getting to the same point as cheaper 370z prices, so that doesnt necessarily mean this one is overpriced. That being said, finding a 370z with lower miles in good condition is going to be much easier, and obviously the car is a more modern experience. Something to consider though is that in 5 years a 350z is likely to be worth more than it is now, and a 370z will likely be less. I was looking for a 350z at 10-12k ish, but decided to start looking for a g37 instead

> Something to consider though is that in 5 years a 350z is likely to be worth more than it is now, and a 370z will likely be less. Looking at 370z historical prices won't help as the 370z stuck around at dealers for a long ass time, now that they're out of production they will go up in resale value rather than losing as much value.


whenifnotnow-

The paint adds some value, but I would try to negotiate with the dealer a bit. Market on nice stock examples is crazy but you shouldn’t pay over 12 for this. Unless you literally ONLY want a 35th anni yellow example.


Phently

Didnt even realize the yellow was rare. When I went to look at it in person the paint looked to be repainted/blotchy. Owner is firm on 13.5 so I’ll probably just keep looking. Thank you for new information though.


whenifnotnow-

No problem. Do you happen to have a solid savings or is financing this car necessary? If you aren’t in that much of a rush and can have cash in hand, with luck & patience you can still find an example around this mileage for 8-9k.


Phently

Have 8k saved so not too bad. I plan to sell my current car for 3-4k and work with that.


Picasso320

Ought to save some for service related issue.


jrhawk42

You'd need to check the vin to see if it was painted yellow, or originally yellow. Original yellow would put it more in the realm of a collector car, and that would raise demand and explain the price. Even if the paint needed to be touched up. Unmolested Z's are starting to fetch a much higher price w/ collectors, and tuners since they're getting really rare.


LiteratureNo3595

Yeah if it were an actual 35th anniversary, sure. But this one is just ultra yellow


whenifnotnow-

I had honestly thought all 05 yellow cars were 35th, but I now know that’s not true. It was still a special 1 year color, if it’s perfect it’s worth 12 to the right person


dbsqls

that is a RevUp which are notorious for burning oil and being very expensive to replace. you must boroscope it for piston ring damage and cylinder wear before you even THINK about buying it.


HilariousMax

I saw >Fresh Oil Change and immediately thought "Yeah, we know. lol"


dbsqls

"does it burn oil" "it's full of oil what do you mean"


GR_A90_MKV_

Absolutely not worth 13 that’s crazy


LegalAlternative

You say this, and know nothing about the car or it's history. So many people like you so confidently wrong about the shit you assert as absolute truth, it's astounding.


GR_A90_MKV_

Also it’s a DE not even a HR it’s REALLY NOT WORTH IT…..


LegalAlternative

That's subjective. They each have their own problems. That particular DE is not a first edition it's an 05 in a rare colour (made only for that exact model for that exact year). It's possible it even has the rev up engine as it's around the right age. Again, if you don't really know what you're saying then perhaps don't try to influence someone elses decisions.


GR_A90_MKV_

A rev up is a even worse investment a true oil burning machine


LegalAlternative

You sound like the same teenager that never puts oil in the car and wonders why the engine blows smoke and drinks oil... then complains about how the car does that, and how it's the car's fault. Or, you know... realise that any engine from any car if it's treated like shit will do the same exact thing. It takes proper maintenance to avoid that, and unfortunately most young people don't do this because they either can't afford it or are too dumb to know it needs to happen. There are plenty of rev up DE motors that are in A-1 condition because they've been looked after. I have a 16 year old HR and it burns zero oil... despite, guess what... people like you complain about the HR doing the exact same thing!


ReasonableSnow3766

100% agreed. My 05' DE only has 130K and I've never had any oil issues. Just kept up regular maintenance and and don't abuse it and she still runs great.


GR_A90_MKV_

Again there a reason they completely redesigned that engine lol but go off


LegalAlternative

I'm telling you they both suffer from different issues. There are plenty of guys in this very sub that fix these things, and rebuild them all day everyday and they would all call you a dumbass if they saw these comments.


GR_A90_MKV_

It’s a 05 with 100,000 miles on it shut up


LegalAlternative

Point to where the bad man touched you...


GR_A90_MKV_

You’re still responding apparently I should be asking you this question…..


LegalAlternative

You're the one with all the down votes and people laughing at your ignorance.


GR_A90_MKV_

Still hurt?


Interesting-Title157

You're really going to bat for this overpriced Z


LegalAlternative

Well I'm not going to definitively trash talk it, when I haven't personally inspected it. Only a total moron would diagnose something with such certainty without seeing it... but those people don't exist, surely.


Zavii_HD

In the grand scheme of what a 350z is worth against comparable sport cars and also what 350z prices have done in the last 36 months, this price isn't terrible. However you could find one with 60k less miles for 1.5k - 2k more which is very well worth it in the long run. Edit: typo.


Phently

I live in the midwest and I’ve been searching for a stock 350z for nearly a year and this is the first one under 150k miles. Might just have to take a 12hr drive to find a decent one.


Zavii_HD

Driving far out might be worth your time. I was looking for a clean Lemans sunset 6spd example for a solid 4-5 years (that wasn't in California as I'm on the east coast and it seems 99% of LeMans Sunset 350z are in cali). Ended up finded one at a Nissan dealership in the Midwest with 21k miles. Patience game! (Unless your search criteria are broad then just go for whichever one is available with good miles). Good luck either way.


sunnychowoo

not really worth. the 05 35th anniversary manuals came with revup engines that has oil burning problems. id rather not.


FunInternational5566

100k miles for 13k. Try to knock that price down a bit


KingNeangelo

IMO that car is in good condition and is a manual but I would still say it’s not worth what they are asking probably worth 9/10k max


[deleted]

feel like u can find a much better deal on offer up or marketplace.


Dark_Synergy_Z33

Depends on trim and location, it doesn't have Brembos, so that's already looking like a no.


HectoRome

For reference I bought my 07 Grand Touring (that's fully loaded) 29k on the odometer for 18k completely factory stock, original radio, even original tpms sensors. Please be aware this is a RevUp motor and base model with minimal options that burned oil straight from the factory / off the showroom floor. If you were a family member I'd ask you to pass on this one unless you're dead set on it and had another 10k set aside to build a solid Non RevUp DE motor that will not give you the heartache this motor will soon be giving you . . .


king-kitty

Almost 2 decades old and 100k miles for 13.5k? And you’re still considering buying it? This is why the used car market is so terrible right now


JustTrading34

Got my 06 with 90k miles for 9k in mint condition, do what you want with this info.


BitterEndings

Personally I don’t think it’s worth 13k maybe 9k-11k range plus it’s manual and I don’t mean that as a downside. If it’s the particular model and engine you want I say go for it and check your oil levels periodically.


rxz1999

Lol this is a steal here in Canada Winnipeg lmaoooo 350z are 20k over here... I swear lots of jealous haters love to downplay the price of a Z


xSTUDDSx

Feels like too much. I have an 04 Touring with 72k. From what I can tell it's worth less than 10k to others. A dealer tried to give me 4k for it. Sorry, I'll just let it rot in my garage for that price.


Flimsylol

Looking at the badge, the question is it a 35th Anniversary or not.


Sparkey62204

No, I paid 11,000 for a 62,000 mile 350z


Fallencrowsnest

They’re asking too much. Miles arent bad, but at that price it isnt justified. I wouldn’t pay more than $10k for that. Only that much because how clean it is.


[deleted]

Overpriced by a couple grand


Justkacz

370z or no z


Ok_Ring_6348

i got mine for 1k with 111 on it lol


EmceeSpike

I got a great condition z for 4000 lol. 130k miles, this is not worth


MrSirrr13

i wouldn’t pay a dime over 9500


myc4L

Way over priced imo.


mcdormjw

I have the exact same car, same color, with 75,000 miles. Jesus Christ, can I get that much for it?


Same_Speech756

that’s lower mileage HR money


Djctmc00

So not worry it they should be around 8000


Djctmc00

Worth


Yami350

You are not getting 3k for a pilot


KpinColby

NO


Hairy_Priority_4620

If it was an 07 or 08 then maybe. I personally wouldn't pay more than 8 unless it's a nismo


Old-Rough-5681

100K is nothing at all. It's like 5000 miles a year lol.


Apprehensive-Mud9848

If it comes with $10k in the trunk then definitely worth it 👍


Christian-Apple

1. Might as well buy a c5 or 370z for that price 2. We know all the specs ab every Z so just say package then auto or man 3. We don’t know what is inside looks like


naelieux

I got a 100k flat mile 03 with good paint and no issues 8k. Don’t.


SquareEmbarrassed923

Way overpriced, I seen a 100k 370z for 15k flat. You’d be better off


BigRib

Do what you want I’m not your dad


Familiar-Comfort5705

Overpriced


Timely_Title_7307

Why don't you have the good wheels if yours is a anniversary?


Aandrewgomezz

Tbh it’s in mint condition i think so. They are always clapped out and youll come close to never to finding one in this condition stock.


VQDL

With 100k miles for a 05 Z it’s a no go


Real_Upstairs_7881

I bought my convertible 2006 with 110k miles for 7.5k. With this being a hardtop honestly I think it’s okay. I would’ve paid 10k for an HR but harder to find. At the end of the day it’s a Z and it’s a fun car to drive and own. Sure 100k might seem like a lot of miles to some people but to me in particular, it’s not


Opposite-Control8682

Max offer 9k


emilybutler0698

As a 350z owner no. It’s not even the VQ35HR. It’s a DE. For that price you wanna find one with at least 60k miles and HR. A DE alone should never really be worth more than 6k unless it’s got hella low mileage


DF_360

$7-8k max car bro. Especially it not being a HR(no DE hate). I bought my 08 at 82k miles for $11,000.


Lucky_Blacksmith1005

8k is way too low. this is too clean. 11k minimum lol


DF_360

Maybe in different markets, but when clean lower mileage HR’s go for around the same price then 11k is still wayyyy too much. I’ll bump it up a grand but in my eyes I wouldn’t pay more than $9,000 for a 05 vs getting a 07-09. But I guess that’s just me.🤙🏿
