law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 hey people, just joined up here and about to take the plunge and buy a 350z import 06 auto in white (added pic) 6k on the clock too looks all ok and currently waitign its test to be carried out by the dealer. what you guys think, look ok? its costing me about 17k being a bit new to this would appreciate any help/advice on it. thanks again Quote
M13KYF Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 and enjoy the forum another white one, don't see any for ages and now three in a month Quote
martinmac Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Welcome to the forum bud. They do look lovely in this colour. Best advice I can give you is take it easy at this time of year til you get used to it. And enjoy the forum. Quote
sl114 Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 I may have to re-think my pearl idea, lots are coming through now. Quote
Andy Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Welcome to the forum! Whereabouts are you from? £17k for that spec car sounds like a pretty good deal to me Quote
law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 alot of them coming over at the moment then are there?................do look nice in pearl though. is the price ok for it you guys think? Quote
sl114 Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Yes it seems like a good price to me. Looking at the auctions though, you may have found an 07 with 0 miles on the clock in pearl for around £18-20k fully imported. But for an 06, thats pretty good Quote
law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 true, suppose if you look hard enough you always gonna get a better deal somewhere........ now just gotta run it...... Quote
law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 thanks for the welcome everyone...... always a bit scary buying somethgin completely different to what you drive and for that money.. ;-) Quote
Digsy Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 thanks for the welcome everyone...... always a bit scary buying somethgin completely different to what you drive and for that money.. ;-) We're here to hold your hand, mate. Any questions, just ask. Quote
law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 something much more scary to drive..........lexus is220. completely different...lol owned a couple of scoobies in the past so no stranger to fast cars....just never had a all out 2 seater.large engine car before. Quote
law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 hope not...although i do like the 'luxury' of the lexus....think that is the only thing i will miss......and i only get 30mpg so not a great difference. Quote
Ebized Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 something much more scary to drive..........lexus is220.completely different...lol owned a couple of scoobies in the past so no stranger to fast cars....just never had a all out 2 seater.large engine car before. welcome - and you won't regret the change (I've had scoobies before too) - you'll just wonder why you didn't do it sooner Quote
law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 good good......hopefully anoth week and it will have cleared the tests and be all ready to pick up... is the 06 a higher bhp as i know they revised it at sompoint? Quote
Ebized Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 good good......hopefully anoth week and it will have cleared the tests and be all ready to pick up... is the 06 a higher bhp as i know they revised it at sompoint? It will be 296bhp - slightly more revs with slighly less torque compared to the 276bhp version - nothing much between the two. Trim updates are more significant. Quote
law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 oh ok......thanks for the info..... trim does look very similar though...... with the import 350z would you also advise not to bother with nissan and take it to an independant garage?? Quote
nixy Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Hi there, car looks fab and a good price two in my opinion! Quote
Ebized Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 oh ok......thanks for the info.....trim does look very similar though...... with the import 350z would you also advise not to bother with nissan and take it to an independant garage?? Over to a JDM owner now as mine's a UK car. From what I gather there would be no Nissan warranty on your import and you would be better off to go to an independent garage that's got a good reputation and would be far better price-wise - use the search facility for details.

law350 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 oh ok thanks, thats what i thought though, got a few prices for around £200 for a full service with reputable garages near me. seemed reasonable enough. anybody down near brighton can advise otherwise? Quote
