I went through a similar situation looking at a very low milage 2014 Nismo being sold up in Maine for about $32,000 in July of 2015. I was all set to jump on it and then after checking the car fax I saw it had been brought in for some electrical work.

It spooked me and I figured with all these 2014 Nismos sitting and having 2016's coming out soon, someone would be willing to take a hit just to get a 2014 Nismo off their lot.

I used the nissan inventory search on nissan's website and just started mass emailing every dealer on the east coast to see what they would be willing to move a 2014 for. I found there were a TON of 2014's still new and unsold. I requested a price of $35,000 and got a bunch of calls back over the next 2 days and the lowest I got was $37,000 from a dealer in Michigan (Muskegon Nissan, whom were excellent). I flew out there and bought it. My total costs after flight, tax, title, and registration were about $40,000 all in, but I used it as a vacation to see Niagara Falls, Saratoga Springs, and a few other places as well.

The day I flew out to pick up the car I got a call from a dealer in Chicago offering me $35,000, but at that point the deal was already done. This was back in August of 2015, so my point is... I think if you can find a new one for around $35,000 it may be worth the peace of mind (not to mention - only one owner on resale), instead of taking a risk over $2,500 bucks.

Keep us posted on how you make out and good luck!

I got mine new June of last year for 35K out the door trading in a 2008 Xterra with 185K miles. Due to things out of my control its pretty much sat for the last 6 months and only has 1300 miles on it. Wouldn't sell it, but there are reasons that cars don't get a lot of miles racked up. Mine did sit on the lot for a year that I was able to watch it and they where willing to deal because they had just got the '15 nismo. Got to take it for a drive and compare the 2. I had already decided I liked the appearance of the '14 better, but I personally liked the stiffer suspension as well.

14 is the best Nismo version for me. If I could find a good deal locally I would trade up!

I bought a '14 in July of that year.. Currently have around 1K miles. I have a Honda Fit as a daily and only drives my Nismo once or twice a week around town locally but never long distance. Point is, it's possible that what you found is legit. Great deal.. obviously do your research as these members mentioned

Did you buy it or not?

Thanks for all the input everyone. I passed on the 882 Nismo because I wasn't completely feeling the red. 2 new 14s left in US according to Nissan inventory. One in Tennessee Grey and one in Tampa Black (my preference). But neither are budging off the 36,999 price. Geez a bit high considering current value. Still sleeping on it...I told the Tampa dealer I would be there Tuesday if I bite. Tampa has had it on their lot for 600 days...I tried to use that as a negotiating factor but they said they are to in the red to lower the price.

They always say that. They told me the same thing too. But i got them to budge slightly and then got them to discount the hell out of the extended warranty as well. I almost walked out during financing too.

Good luck on your search.

Buy mine $32000 so cal
Black 2014 z nismo with 1,450 miles
Nothing to hide here, I have a daily driver company truck and I have 3 kids so obviously I don't get much alone time by myself or with the wife. I also have an M3 so I don't drive the Z at all. Let me know I won't waste your time if you are a serious buyer
Thank you
