I'll buy new every time and deal with monthly payments rather than screw around with someone's old neglected beater with non-stop issues.
That's why I bought a CPO Z...already used the warranty to address CSC & get a new tranny after 5th gear began to grind.

I do agree that buying a used Z w/o a warranty is risky business.
