I have given many point byes to well sorted Spec 350Z’s with good drivers.

I remember seeing a NASA Spec 350Z in Sports Car for $15,000.00 and it had everything including a Piper cage (think $5,000.00 or more for the install).
That's what I did! I'm building a SpecZ car now and I'm down to just safety equipment and a little bit of an adjustment to the frame (they didn't pull the frame forks enough to get the core support on properly) and my projected cost is just over $20,000 from wreck to race.

I'd be really surprised to see a $15,000 SpecZ since the suspension kit is $4,500 and differentials are likely over $1000. It's probably a good buy! :P
