WTB Roadster - Questions for Seasoned Z Owners
 

So, I'm thinking I'll be ready to get serious about buying my first Z in Dec/Jan - I'm hoping to find a low-miles 2010/11 Roadster Touring (and maybe Sport) in the $25k range. I've driven 6MT & 7AT and would be happy with either.

My question(s) are these:

1. I watch this forum, Cars.com and Autotrader.com pretty regularly - where else should I be looking? I can travel to purchase - in fact, I kinda want to purchase one in another state and drive it home.

2. Is it reasonable to expect to find a 2010 370ZR Touring/Sport with less than 30k miles under $25k?

3. Any specifics I should 'watch out for?' (Soft top damage/top mechanics/etc)

Thanks in advance all!

Where ever you shop for a 370Z...Shop right here.............:tup:

Here are a few other sources that are pretty good.

This one will even search craigslist across the country, which is pretty cool.

I strongly suggest that you look in Florida, Texas, Las Vegas, and California. If Ohio is like Minnesota you can save thousands.

If your willing to travel, Miami has quite a few late model ZR's. Under $25k for a loaded ZR will be tough. I haggled for a few days and got my 11' ZR(27K mileage) down to 25,900 and it's a base model w/aftermarket leather upgrade. Did make them throw on a new set of Bridgestone's for that price though.

Watch for top damage around the window frame on the 2010 models(window rubbing issue). That's about it:tup:.
