I'd hold out for a GT spec car. They give you leather amongst other bits. Much better for re-sale and there should be no shortage of decent cars about.

I'd agree with that

been searching for while now but none seem to be turning up for the right price which i can swap for the clio (on finance) so can only go for trade sales only have a budget of £6k and that one looked like it has had a good life,

Just be patient mate, they will come up and people on here have got some right bargains. It is worth holding out for the right one and as I say you will easily get a GT for that so its worth waiting unless you find an absolutely mint, low mileage non GT.

There are plenty about. Having said that I bought a non-GT because of its condition and mileage (and I wasn't bothered about the GT stuff and I actually prefer cloth seats)... however quite a few people seem to prefer the higher spec.

yeah i always find leathers too cold in winter n burns in summer lol, what are the gt extras everyone keeps mentioning, is there a list somewhere on the site

Go for a GT mate as you also get heated seats which are soooo nice in winter!!! think GT also come with Rays as standard (not 100% sure though).

 

I would wait a little and save some money, will make all the difference. Go and see a few as well and see how they drive. I saw 5 in one day when I bought mine and you can tell the good from the bad.

GT has cruise control as well, which is good for your licence, your wallet and your stress levels when you have a long motorway cruise to do

[Leeroy]

As everyone has said, go for the GT - for easier resale if nothing else. The extras are well worth it, GT's only seem to command a premium of a few hundred quid.

Leather in the Zed isn't as hard to live with as bigger cars where the sun has more opportunity to get the seats hot anyway. And who wears shorts in winter?

Happily, it's a buyer's market for proper cars these days, £6K should get you a good 350Z....

[jamjar15]

yeah i know ill end up regretting not waiting another month when i see someone with a gt, if anyone happens to see one give me a shout please

[greg tl]

I think you may want to give me a call...

 

Thats my kind of price range and I have a car coming next week that will probably put a grin on your face.
