Gurrier Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Hi all, Basically im here to learn as much as i can about the 350z (2007 model) as im thinking of selling my Focus ST (also 2007) and buying one instead of spending 2-3 grand getting my ST to stage 3 300bhp or so while possibly reducing its resale value. Im after a purer drivering experience and a better grand tourer that i will use day to day and if anyone on here has made the swap from ST to 350z your imput would be greatly appreciated. Tax here is lunacy on 3 litre+ engines 1900e a year or so but it makes for some great deals like http://cars.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/nissan-350z/5868530 so im thinking of biting the bullet. Nice to meet you all. Jim Quote
KyleR Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Just so you know, thats a 2006 model Zed in the link, but even at that, it's very cheap. Good luck looking Quote
richmillions Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 I think that car may have originally been owned by the Nissan dealership in Waterford. Quote
hensh65 Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Just make sure if you want an 07 you get the HR engine, easy to spot as the bonnet has a buldge rather than the 2 indented lines Quote
WhackyWill Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Welcome to the Forum . Thats a cheap Zed, could be a nice buy and exported over here. Quote
delz0r Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Hi Jim. That is the 2006 model car but registered in 2007. The 2007 model is different, the bonnet bulge is the main give away. Quote
GMballistic Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Welcome aboard Jim. Can't believe the cost of tax though! Quote
Gurrier Posted November 6, 2013 Author Posted November 6, 2013 Welcome aboard Jim. Can't believe the cost of tax though! Yea its 1294 on my ST. 1300 quid to tax a bloody focus hence thinking of upgrading to something to make the loony tax worth it Quote
GMballistic Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Welcome aboard Jim. Can't believe the cost of tax though! Yea its 1294 on my ST. 1300 quid to tax a bloody focus hence thinking of upgrading to something to make the loony tax worth it Crazy money to have to pay but I guess there's not a lot you can do about it. I don't think you'll regret getting a 350Z. I've had various car's over the years; Golf VR6, JDM WRX Impreza (heavily modified) & an EP3 Type R just to name a few and I love the 350Z much more than I ever did any of those. Quote
Gurrier Posted November 6, 2013 Author Posted November 6, 2013 Yea i think a last edition 2007 version GT 350z would be my preference but might have to wait afew months if i wanted to stretch to one. I just want a big lazy cruiser Quote
GMballistic Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 There not that lazy you should know. Quote
